Go for regular check-ups

Speaking in an interview with YEN.com.gh on the issue, Dr Desmond Nii Akwei Allotey, a medical doctor at the Pediatric Intensive Care at the Korle Teaching Hospital, stressed the importance of regular checkups.

He said doing this would help individuals know their health status.

"We recommend that every individual should have a health check at least once every year or twice a year. This will allow you to detect some of these conditions because most of them don't show any symptoms until you have complications or until the organs are damaged. "
