Not all can afford periodic medical checkup that's why paying close attention to our body for new sensations is highly necessary. While there are some ailments that can be solved ourselves like minor aches and cold, certain symptoms indicates the need of urgent medical attention. These symptoms might seem harmless but could be catastrophic if not evaluated and treated quickly. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

1.) Chest Pains Whether sudden or persistence shouldn't be ignored especially accompanied by sweating, pressure and shortness of breath, should be evaluated by a medical professional. It doesnt automatically means something is terribly wrong but in this case, it is always better case than sorry as it could be an indicator of heart attack or even a blood clot. 2.) Unexplainable Weight loss This should never be over looked. A weight loss of 5% or more over a relatively short period of time is a serious problem as this is one of the biggest symptom of cancer. Other possibilities include diabetes, depression, liver disease, overactive thyroid or malabsorption disorders. 8 Likes 8 Shares |

3.) Sudden Onset of extreme pain in your head Particularly if it feels worse than any headaches you've had before. It could mean different things. 4.) Sudden Confusion, inability to concentrate or behaviour changes Medical attention is definately needed. It could be an indicator of a brain tumor, bleeding in brain, stroke or at the very least be a sign of low blood sugar or dehydration. 5.) Shortness of breath Some factors like extreme physical activity can cause this. If you can't catch your breath for extended period of time especially if accompanied with chest pain or gasping requires urgent medical attention. It could be a sign of a blood clot or pulmonary disease. 6 Likes 5 Shares |
