Doctor's advice:

• "Treatment should be not only fast but also safe. Without a professional consultation, it's easy to miss important symptoms or choose ineffective treatment. The internet can provide general information, but it doesn't know you personally – unlike a doctor who will consider all the peculiarities of your body. I always advise seeking help at the first symptoms, even if they seem insignificant. Because early detection allows avoiding complications and significantly shortens the duration of treatment. Preventive check-ups are a real way to maintain health. Regular follow-ups with a specialist are about care, self-trust, and responsibility for your future. Only then can we prevent illness, not just treat its consequences."
