examination findings
Examination findings are the observations and measurements a healthcare provider makes during a physical assessment. These include looking at your body for signs like swelling or skin changes, feeling areas to check for tenderness or abnormalities, listening to your heart and lungs with a stethoscope to assess function, and sometimes testing reflexes or muscle strength. These findings help the provider identify health issues, understand their severity, and decide on the best course of action. They provide valuable clues about your overall health and any specific problems that may need further investigation or treatment.
