Critical Illness News
Men risking their health by ignoring medical symptoms
New research has highlighted the attitude of UK men towards their health by revealing that 18 million have chosen to ignore medical symptoms over the last year.
Coming in the wake of research commissioned by Scottish Provident showing critical illness cover is only taken out by one in five people, the findings highlight how many individuals are jeopardising the financial futures of their dependants.
According to the research, 44 per cent of men do not check themselves for cancerous signs such as lumps and moles, while more than a third (34 per cent) do not know how to check for testicular cancer.
"By ignoring symptoms and not visiting their doctor men could be leaving themselves vulnerable to future health problems," said Mark Jones, head of protection at Friends Provident.
"We are encouraging men to take more care of themselves by being aware of their health now to secure their long term health."
Because illnesses can strike at any time, taking out critical illness insurance is vital, according to according to Richard Jones of Scottish Widows, who recently stated that people need to be made aware of the benefits of cover.
He was speaking while revealing that cancer, stroke and heart-related issues dominated claims recorded by the organisation.
