What is involved in a physical exam?
Physical exams are preventative healthcare visits aimed at evaluating your overall health status. Most adults and older children benefit from scheduling yearly check-ups. During your visit, vital signs will be collected, including:
These findings are recorded in your personal medical file, which helps track changes over time and can highlight early warning signs of chronic illnesses. Your exam may also include lab work such as blood and urine tests, providing deeper insight into how your body systems are functioning. Be ready to discuss any current medications during your visit.
What are DOT physical exams?
Commercial drivers need a specific type of physical exam to ensure they are fit to meet the physical and mental demands of their job.
These Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated exams are essential for public safety since commercial drivers share the roads with everyone. DOT exams include many of the same checks as regular physicals but may also involve drug testing and evaluations for physical or psychological impairments.
What other specialized physical exams are offered?
At different times, both children and adults may require specialized physical exams. For example, children often need a sports physical before joining organized athletic programs or starting a new school year. Adults may need specific physicals if they participate in competitive sports or if their employer requires a certain type of exam. Although these specialized exams may seem inconvenient, they ensure your body is capable of safely handling the activities or work you plan to do. Early detection during these exams can help prevent serious health issues by guiding timely treatment.
