数据表明,男性比女性更易忽视健康问题

Whether it's an unexplained ache or pain, an unusual lump or bump, or worries about sexual health, with today's busy lives too many of us shrug off symptoms and simply decide to get on with our day.
不管是无法言说的疼痛、不正常的肿块还是担心性健康，而今的我们生活忙碌，很多人都会对这些症状不屑一顾，继续过日子。

And it's men who are much more likely than women to ignore health concerns, failing to get expert advice even when they think something might be wrong. In fact, a 2012 survey found that men are much less likely than women to take advantage of primary care services, including community pharmacies.
而男人比女人更容易忽视健康问题，即使当他们觉得事情不对劲时，他们也不会寻求专家的建议。事实上，2012年的一项研究发现：相比女人，男人不太可能利用初级保健服务，包括社区药房。

And it seems that this is one reason why men experience worse long-term health prospects than women. According to the Movember Foundation, which raises funds and campaigns on men's health issues, men die on average six years earlier than women.
好像这也解释了男人的长期健康前景比女人更差的原因。据Movember Foundation（为男性健康问题募集资金和举办活动的基金会）表示，男人平均比女人早离世6年。

But with expert guidance available from your local community pharmacist, it is quick and convenient for men to get help and advice on the high street. You don't need an appointment, you can simply pop into your local Boots pharmacy store, where you'll find a pharmacist and their team happy to answer your questions.
但在地方药剂师的专业指导下，男性在大街上就能得到帮助和建议，既快捷又方便。你无需预约，只要去地方Boots药店，那里的药剂师和其他人员都很乐意回答你的问题。

Most local pharmacies also have private consultation rooms, so you can even discuss any concerns or symptoms away from other customers. Some Boots pharmacies offer private services in store for some common problems that can affect men including hair loss and sexual health. The Pharmacist can also give advice on ways to help stop smoking and live a healthy lifestyle. So there's no need to sweep symptoms under the carpet or sit at home worrying unnecessarily.
大多数地方药店也有私人诊疗室，所以你可以不用当着其他客人的面就可以和医生聊你的担忧和症状。有些Boots药房还提供店内私人服务，解决常见的影响男性健康的问题，包括脱发和性健康。药剂师还可以就如何帮助你戒烟和如何健康生活提供建议。所以根本没有必要隐瞒你的症状或坐在家里不必要的担心。

By simply popping into their local Boots pharmacy in their lunch hour, men can now talk about any health concerns they may have and discuss any symptoms with minimum fuss and embarrassment - in some cases, it could even help save their lives.
只要在午饭时间去地方Boots药房，男性就可以谈论他们可能患有的健康问题，或是在最不尴尬的情况下谈论任何症状--有些情况下，这样做甚至能挽救他们的生命。

An eye test is about more than simply checking whether you can read the newspaper or the number on the front of the bus. Having your vision checked by a Boots optician can also help identify a range of health problems.
眼部检查不只是检查你是否能读报或是否看得见公交车前面的数字。让Boots验光师检查一下你的视力还能有助于确定一系列健康问题。
