Question 1

What is a Full Body Checkup?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes, health issues can develop quietly, without any obvious signs. This could be due to risk factors such as lifestyle habits, family history, or advancing age. A comprehensive health checkup package includes a series of tests, imaging, and consultations that can help identify potential problems before they become serious.

Question 2

At what age is a preventive health checkup best?

Accepted Answer

The frequency of undergoing a preventive health checkup depends on patient factors like age, health status, and existing medical issues. It is generally recommended to undergo a full-body health checkup every 1–2 years if you are below 50 and every year if you are above 50.

Question 3

What should I carry during my health checkup?

Accepted Answer

It is recommended to carry a valid government-issued photo ID if you are registering with Manipal Hospitals for the first time. For patients already registered, you can provide your hospital ID number at the time of your appointment. You may also bring your previous medical records and a list of any medications or supplements you are currently taking.

Question 4

Can a health checkup detect all diseases?

Accepted Answer

A full-body checkup can identify potential health risks early, but it doesn’t detect all diseases. While it helps monitor conditions like diabetes, some diseases may require specific tests not included in the package. It's important to consult your doctor, discuss family history, and follow up on any concerns.

How do I choose the right package for my age or health concerns?

Mahi’s full body checkup for males in Mangalore is grouped based on age, 19-40 and 41-60, and risk factors. Men aged 19–40 can choose from Bronze, Silver, or Gold categories depending on how detailed they want their checkup to be. For men aged 41–60, we offer Silver and Gold options, with broader screenings to match age-related health risks.
