Symptoms Women Shouldn't Ignore
With work, home and everything in between, it can be hard to find time to go to the doctor. Although women were 33 percent more likely visit the doctor than their male counterparts, according to recent report published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), many women may still be ignoring important signals from their bodies. Anytime you notice changes in your body, whether it’s a pain in your joints or a new mole, it’s always best to talk to your doctor. Some symptoms are more serious than others, and should be checked out right away.
