3 Things You Can Do to Avoid a Doctor’s Visit

Acoustic Planning

It can be scary knowing that something isn’t right with your body. You wake up one day and don’t feel quite right, and if it doesn’t go away in a few days, it can really panic you. Yet, many people avoid going to see their doctor. Sometimes it’s just a simple case of white coat syndrome but for others, they avoid going so that they don’t potentially have to face some bad news. 

Your health should be the biggest priority in your life, and while it’s understandable that you might not want to go to see the doctor, it’s also something you should never put off. Saying that, there are many things you could be doing to avoid having to make that dreaded appointment. Let’s check those out now.

Avoid excessive alcohol consumption

Drinking alcohol can be a great way to relax and unwind after a long and stressful day. And, when it’s consumed in moderation, it’s not dangerous to your health. However, if you’re drinking over the daily recommended limit regularly, then you could be doing some serious damage to your health. Not only could it cause cirrhosis of the liver, but it can damage other parts of your body too such as your stomach lining and your teeth.

And, when you’re drunk, you have less inhibitions, which could lead to you doing something that’s also potentially harmful to your health like falling over. So, it’s best to cut back, give your liver a rest, and get help if you’re finding it difficult to give up.

Never put anything bigger than your elbow in your ear

We’ve all been there before; you’ve woken up with a blocked ear and it’s beginning to frustrate you. Not only can it be difficult to hear properly, but it can often send your balance off too. You’ve probably even gone as far as searching the internet for quick fixes like ear candling. And while many people may have found relief using this method, it simply isn’t safe. It’s important to learn the truths about ear candling before even considering using it on your ears. 

Another great rule to follow when it comes to avoiding seeing a doctor is by never putting anything bigger than your elbow in your ear (and that includes ear candles). It sounds silly, but putting things into your ear to try and clear it out could actually cause more damage than it’s worth. And, if you accidentally do damage to your inner ear, you could cause permanent hearing loss.

Stop clicking your bones!

Remember when you were a teenager and clicking your fingers was cool? Have you ever stopped clicking your bones in your fingers? There’s a good chance you haven’t and now you simply do it out of habit. But, the truth is, that it could cause ligament damage or you could even end up breaking a bone. And if you do that, you’ll most definitely have to make some sort of doctor’s appointment.

Not only that, it’s simply just not that cool any more!

There are, of course, many other things you can do to avoid a doctor’s trip, but these are a good place to start. However, remember that visiting the doctor sooner rather than later could help you in the long run!
