Answers:
The thing to do is to get things checked out when you have specific symptoms that could mean a serious problem. For example, they can check you for appendicitis very easily and quickly, and if it is serious, the operation is rather simple. But you might just have a problem that needs antibiotics for awhile. Or it might just be gas. Why suffer from worry, when you could find out it is nothing.? On the other hand, if it does turn out to be serious, you will get it taken care of, so it ISN'T life-threatening.

My own policy has been to ignore minor pains, but if something hurts bad and the pain persists, or if I develop an inexplicable lump, bleeding from some unusual body part, or other weird thing that sticks around, I get it checked out.

I worry very little until a doctor tells me I have a reason to worry. Most problems go away on their own, and most of those that don't are not life-threatening and don't require an operation, just a bit of care or some medicine.

The trick is to know when you can wait and see as opposed to when you need to check with a doctor. About 20 years ago, my husband noticed an M&M sized lump on the back of his neck, and a few doctors said it was probably just a fatty lump. But it turned out to be a form of cancer. Because we got it checked quickly, they caught it early and got it all, and my husband didn't need any further treatment, and the cancer never came back. It's much better to have things checked than to be afraid of operations or be afraid to find out they might be life-threatening. The point is, life-threatening things only get more life-threatening if you just sit around worrying.

So, tell yourself that you probably don't need to worry, but just to make sure, you are going to the doctor. I hope you will feel good soon.Health Question & Answer
