Some illnesses do not come with pain or fever. You might not even know you are sick. There are some bad diseases that can hurt you over time without making you feel sick. Diseases like these can be really bad, for you. They do not always have symptoms that you can see. This is why people call them killers. You can feel totally fine. The disease is still hurting your body. It can damage your organs, your joints, your bones, your blood vessels or your immune system. You might not even know it is happening to you. Silent killers are very sneaky they can be damaging your organs, your joints, your bones, your blood vessels or your immune system without you feeling anything out of the ordinary.
Diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, diabetes and fatty liver disease can be really sneaky. They can go on for years without you noticing them. You might feel a little tired. Your joints might feel stiff or you might have a bit of discomfort.. People often do not pay attention to these small signs. Rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, osteoporosis, high blood pressure, diabetes and fatty liver disease can be very quiet, at first.
So we need to get health checkups and blood tests. These things are important. We should also get screened early. If we find out about health problems early we can stop them from getting really bad. Early detection of health problems can prevent damage that cannot be fixed. That is why it improves our health in the long run. Regular health checkups and early screening are essential, for our long-term health.
If a patient feels completely normal, how can a serious disease still be progressing inside the body?
