美国各地的医生报告,越来越多的病人因互联网搜索或误解症状而误诊严重或罕见的自诊断疾病,如自发免疫疾病、癌症或寄生虫感染。 Doctors across the U.S. are reporting growing cases of patients who incorrectly self-diagnosed serious or rare conditions—such as autoimmune diseases, cancer, or parasitic infections—based on internet searches or misunderstood symptoms. 许多人认为在网上阅读后,他们患上威胁生命的疾病,只是被诊断患有常见问题,如焦虑症、维生素缺乏症或轻微感染。 Many believed they had life-threatening illnesses after reading online, only to be diagnosed with common issues like anxiety, vitamin deficiencies, or minor infections. 医务专业人员警告说,虽然了解情况有帮助,但自我诊断可造成不必要的压力,延误适当的治疗,导致费用昂贵、不必要的检查。 Medical professionals warn that while being informed is helpful, self-diagnosis can cause unnecessary stress, delay proper treatment, and lead to costly, unwarranted tests. 他们强调,只有领有执照的保健提供者才能利用临床判断、医疗史和诊断测试来准确评估健康关切。 They emphasize that only licensed healthcare providers can accurately assess health concerns using clinical judgment, medical history, and diagnostic testing. 医生们应该谨慎地咨询医生, 而不是依靠网上未经验证的信息. The anecdotes serve as a cautionary reminder to consult qualified doctors rather than rely on unverified online information.
