August 20, 2025Tough Guys Take Care of Business: Are You Taking Care of Your Health?
Many men put off doctor visits and ignore warning signs. Yet, they often think, “I’ll be fine.” However, real strength starts with taking care of your health. This Men’s Health Month, Cabarrus Rowan Community Health Center (CRCHC) encourages men in Charlotte, Concord, Salisbury, and nearby areas to focus on men’s preventive care.
Why Do Men Avoid Doctor Visits?
Busy schedules and fear of bad news are common reasons. Additionally, some don’t know where to find affordable men’s health care in NC. In fact, men are 24% less likely than women to see a doctor each year. Therefore, skipping check-ups can cause serious health problems like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and cancers. You can learn more at NIH on Men’s Health.
