Lt. Col. Charny, deputy commander of clinical services, and Capt. James Walker, chaplain, for Bayne-Jones Army Community Hospital rendered honors during Reveille while participating in the Men's Health Month, ruck march, Jun. 27, at the Warrior Hills Golf Course, Joint Readiness Training Center and Fort Johnson, Louisiana.
Charny, an Emergency Medicine doctor, said he recommends men schedule an annual appointment with their primary care provider.
“I encourage men to participate in self-care, listen to their bodies, take up men’s healthcare causes, and support other men in maintaining their health and getting through their recovery,” he said. “Men, 35 years and younger, should have routine testicular exams, while those 45 years and up should be concerned with colon cancer and consider colonoscopies. Men, 50 years and older, require prostate screening.”
Charny said the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force website is a good resource for patient self-care information and education.
