Full Body Checkup in Mumbai

Mumbai, India’s second most populated city, is home to nearly 2.16 crore people. Residents of the “Maximum City” have to deal with significant challenges such as air and noise pollution, hot and humid climate, overcrowding, and high-stress levels due to the city's fast-paced lifestyle. Dealing with all these stressors can easily make one lose track of their health. To avoid the risk of potential health issues later on, you must opt for regular full body health checkups. A Full Body Checkup is an essential preventive measure, offering a comprehensive evaluation of your overall health. Apollo 24|7’s Full Body Checkup in Mumbai provides a complete health assessment. 

This extensive package includes vital tests such as blood studies to detect anaemia and other blood disorders, as well as cardiac assessments to monitor heart health. The checkup also includes liver function tests to assess liver health, kidney function analysis to ensure proper kidney operation, and other essential screenings to identify potential issues early. Additionally, it includes specialised tests like thyroid function analysis, vitamin level assessments, infection screening, and hepatitis screening. These tests are key to identifying underlying health issues before they become serious. Choosing a full body checkup in Mumbai enables you to take proactive steps in maintaining your health in the city’s demanding environment.

What Conditions Can Be Diagnosed with Full Body Checkup?

You should know that a full body checkup, by itself, is unlikely to detect or diagnose an underlying medical condition. However, it may help underscore the risk of certain health conditions, such as the ones mentioned below, by revealing fluctuations in relevant health markers.

• Diabetes: Through glucose and HbA1c tests, diabetes or prediabetes may be identified.
• Heart Disease: Lipid profile and cardiac assessments highlight risk of heart disease, including high cholesterol and potential blockages.
• Liver Disorders: Liver function tests may reveal the risk of hepatitis, cirrhosis, or fatty liver.
• Kidney Diseases: Renal function tests may help in detecting conditions such as kidney stones or chronic renal(kidney) disease.
• Anaemia: Complete Blood Count (CBC) can detect different types of anaemia.
• Thyroid Disorders: Thyroid profile tests identify hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.
• Infections: Screenings for hepatitis, urinary tract infections, and other common infections are included.
• Vitamin Deficiencies: Tests for Vitamin D and B12 levels reveal deficiencies that might lead to bone and neurological issues.

A full body check up can facilitate early detection, allowing for timely treatment and management.

Test Requirements

To ensure accurate test results, you should observe a few guidelines before undergoing a Full Body Checkup. Some of the things you need to take care of are:
