What kind of physical should a 40 year old male get?

like prostate exam kidney check up cuz unfortunately his doc only checks his ears lungs and heart?

Answer #1

My guess would be that he should get a complete physical at his age, top to bottom to make sure that everything is ok.

Answer #2

It depends on if it is his first physical. Many checks can be done every 2 or 3 years. My last physical when I was 50 was just checking my vitals and doing routine blood work. My doctor did an EKG and digital exam the year before and these are not necessary every year.
