Study: 41% of Spaniards Search for Health Information Online

A Funsalud study reveals that 41% of patients 'frequently search' the internet for information on symptoms, diseases, or health problems. This indicates a growing trend towards independently researching medical issues in the digital age. Patients increasingly turn to online resources to gain a preliminary understanding of their condition before consulting a doctor or to supplement specialist recommendations. However, experts urge caution when approaching such information, as it can be inaccurate or misleading.
