What health problems have you noticed in your family members?

---

Alhamdulillah, currently all my family members are still given health by Allah, but every human being must have shortcomings. However, I have two family members who have a disease that must always take medicine regularly, namely my father and my brother.

Although Ayan and my brother are now healthy, they both have to always take medicine to neutralize the disease in their bodies, because my father currently has a swollen spleen and my brother has a nerve disease due to an accident several years ago.

In your opinion, how can knowing your family's health history help you?

---

Knowing your family's health history really helps me because by knowing my family's health history, now I know more about what my family needs to stay healthy.

And when one of my family members suddenly falls ill, we already understand how to deal with it so that my family can get good and proper care.

Have you ever discussed health problems with your family? How does it feel?

Yes, when I am sick or my family is sick, we always discuss our health problems together so that we can get the best solution for our family's health.

We never undergo treatment without discussing it with each other in our family, we always discuss it so that we can get the right and good treatment.

In your opinion, is it important to record family health history? Why is that and why not?

---

Yes, I think it is very important to record family health history, because this is the main key to keeping our family healthy.

Because if we don't record our family's health history, then we will never know what each member of our family really needs to stay healthy.

How can we encourage younger family members to learn about their health history?

One way we should encourage younger family members to learn about health history is by educating them to continue to maintain their health by eating healthy foods and also having enough sleep.

Then we also have to remind our younger family members to routinely check their health condition with a doctor so that they know about their health history.
