Brief Answer: General Health Checkup Detailed Answer: Hi XXXXXXX Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic. At your age it is a very good idea to get a full physical done. These are some of the things that I feel are very important to get done when you are having an annual health checkup in you 30's. Annual physical exam by your primary care physician, including blood pressure, and height/weight checks. Screening for testicular cancer. Cholesterol testing every 5 years Depending on your individual circumstances. Your doctor may want to do an electrocardiogram to check for heart disease. Blood tests to screen for diabetes, thyroid disease, liver problems, and anemia. Depending on risk factors, your doctor may also recommend screening for skin cancer, oral cancer, sexually transmitted diseases, HIV infection, and alcohol abuse. Vision examination Screening for coronary heart disease in individuals with strong family history and/or risk factors. There are lots of HealthCheckup Packages that you can get done at one of the larger Corporate hospitals. You normally get a bit of a discount if you do the package and for the most part they are quite thorough. Hope this helps. Feel free to follow-up and get more information if you like and also, if you want, you can upload the results here and we can go over the results in detail.
