SUMMARY: The community is celebrating the groundbreaking of a new Coastal Family Health Center and Pharmacy in Stone County. The $1.8 million development is aimed at providing quality and affordable healthcare to residents in the area, who previously had to travel to other facilities for medical services. The center will offer a sliding fee discount based on income and household size, ensuring access to all members of the community. The mayor of Wiggins praises the addition as it will reduce appointment wait times and provide necessary medical attention to residents. The goal is to serve the first patient by mid-September.

The $1.8 million project has been in the works for over six years in Stone County.

SUMMARY: Prostate health is important for men, with one in eight being diagnosed with prostate cancer in their lifetime. Lifestyle choices such as a healthy diet, staying clean, and avoiding caffeinated products can help maintain prostate health. Genetic factors can also play a role in prostate issues. Regular PSA tests are crucial for early detection of prostate cancer, as symptoms may not appear until it has metastasized. Factors like slow urinary stream, frequent urination, and urgency may indicate an enlarged prostate. New technologies like the euronav, combining MRI and PSA tests, can improve detection accuracy. Attend seminars like the one at Singing River in Gulport for more information.
