Medical culture is, first of all, elementary knowledge about a person's own health and possible diseases, going to a doctor's office not only for some illness or disease, but also for the purpose of analyzing and examining the state of the body. In developed countries, the majority of the population undergoes a health examination without any complaints. Medical culture is knowledge and skills aimed at ensuring that each person and the population as a whole take a responsible attitude to their own health.
