Can AIDS be detected by general physical examination

AIDS general physical examination can not find out, need special AIDS testing to be diagnosed. AIDS detection mainly includes HIV antibody detection, HIV antigen antibody joint detection, HIV nucleic acid detection and other methods.

General physical examination items usually include blood routine examination, urine routine examination, liver function examination, kidney function examination, blood sugar examination, blood lipid examination and other basic examinations, which cannot directly detect AIDS virus. AIDS virus has specificity and needs special detection methods to find it. HIV antibody testing is the most commonly used screening method, but there is a window period after infection, during which the test results may be negative. HIV antigen antibody combination testing can shorten the window period and improve detection accuracy. HIV nucleic acid testing can directly detect viral nucleic acid with the shortest window period, but the cost is relatively high.

Maintaining good lifestyle habits and enhancing immunity can help prevent the occurrence of diseases.
