With Father’s Day on the horizon, we felt it was more than appropriate to spotlight men this month! Did you know…June is Men’s Health Month?!?! Anchored by a Congressional health education program, Men’s Health Month is celebrated across the country with screenings, health fairs, media appearances, and other health education and outreach activities.
Men are known for being less than enthusiastic about visiting doctors for regular checkups and many a woman has dropped hints and reminded her sweetheart to get an appointment every year. With that in mind, we want to focus on a few things guys can be looking for as potential problems and signs that they should suck it up and make that dreaded appointment! ;o) C’mon guys, it is just because we love you! ;o)
