Is there a difference between a medical check-up and a physical check-up? If there is, what?

Answer:
A medical is more through. Blood work %26 a lots of test the physical is generally part of type check up also, the ones I've had. U have to go back for results at a later date.

Physical check up R basic physical test such as testing Ur reflexes, eyesight, blood pressure, hearing (a few mobility test such as touch toes, bend knees etc.) %26 they check for hernias in this one.

So the other differance is the cost. All that is included from doctors time, lab work test, results %26 everything else the Medical is going to cost a lot more. The ole saying U get what U pay for is true here too. As the medical shows so much more than a physical. Hope this helps clear things up for U or you better understand how the 2 differ..

Medical check-up, is a head to toe...inside and out... blood...urine tests.STOL.x-rays and so on..Oh and yes the finger in the rear test.. This test last half, if not all day.

physical check-up.. is just the basic test.. in and out of the office in about 1 hour.
