What is a medical inspection of the body?

A medical inspection of the body is a visual examination of the patient's body to assess their physical health. This can include an examination of the skin, hair, nails, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, and throat. The doctor may also palpate (feel) the patient's lymph nodes, abdomen, and extremities to look for any abnormalities. A medical inspection can help the doctor identify signs of illness or injury and assess the patient's overall health.
