Health Management vs Health Care

Health-we all take it for granted, until one day we lose it ! Either we choose to awaken or we suffer…the choice is still ours.
Now, after being adversely hit by the Pandemic…we all understand the importance of being optimally healthy. But the Health-Care system these days is only limited to Health-management. Let’s see an example.
Mr. X had some symptoms…he saw a doctor…the doctor diagnosed him of diabetes mellitus and prescribed him some pills that he was supposed to take for the rest of his life. With time his dose and number of pills kept increasing and he also had many complications as his age progressed.
This is a pure example of health management where only the symptoms are getting managed but the disease keep damaging and keep progressing inside the body.
Let’s see another example…Mr. X with same trouble goes to another doctor…the doctor diagnosed him of diabetes mellitus…gave him some medicines and made him aware of his faulty Lifestyle because of which he developed this disease. The doctor guided him about all the ways to improve his lifestyle and change his diet, which Mr. X followed religiously.
After sometime Mr. X cured his diabetes…now he no more needs medicines…he’s healthy and free from any discomforts. He feels good in his body and now he’s aware of things not to do to fall ill again.
This is called real health-care…when you give your body what it is asking for , when you help your body to get out of the illnesses and when you do what’s needed to keep this body fit and fine.
The choice is now ours…which way to go and how to live…Live with illness and manage it with daily pills or live with happiness and care for your own self ?
