Learning notes
Explanation
ตรวจ means “to check or examine,” and โรค means “disease.” Together, ตรวจโรค refers to medically checking for disease or identifying a condition. With a doctor as the subject, it often means “examine” or “diagnose.” With a patient as the subject, especially in ไปตรวจโรค, it means “go to get examined.”
Usage
It is used in hospitals, clinics, workplace medical checks, school health requirements, and general health-management contexts. It can describe seeing a doctor because of symptoms or getting a required medical examination.
Caution
For a specific test, use ตรวจ plus the test target, such as ตรวจเลือด for a blood test or ตรวจปัสสาวะ for a urine test. Also, รักษาโรค means “treat a disease,” which is different from ตรวจโรค, the checking or examination stage.
