If I am to create an app, it should be a diagnostic app.
If you open the Play Store on your mobile phone, you will discover that there are thousands of apps created by different people for different purposes. These apps have been helpful to you and me; technology keeps advancing and thus making life easier for society. Many apps serve financial purposes, through which millionaires have emerged. Social media apps like WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Discord, Telegram, and lots more have helped people socialize and do business together. Recently, I heard of the Money Manager app, an app to help manage your money. That's interesting, and there are still other interesting apps out there.

Today, the Hive Learners community, through their contest, has challenged us to go creative and think of an app to create without worrying about resources. Well, I had a deeper thought over an app I could create that would be beneficial to people and finally came up with a diagnostic app. I really do not know if my imagination can become reality, but that is what I can think about for now.
Why this particular app?
Over time, you see people practicing self-medication, treating themselves of illness blindly without knowing the actual sickness they are treating. This is because some people cannot afford the cost of a laboratory test, and so whenever they become sick, based on the symptoms they experienced before, they will assume that the same particular sickness is what it is, hence the self-medication. The cost of medical care nowadays is getting higher each day with the present economy, and many people don't even give their health attention until it gets severe.
Here in my country, Nigeria, using my community as an example, you will hardly see people undergoing lab tests prior to treatment. Any single fever they experience will be tagged malaria parasite, and boom, they will get malaria drugs and commence treatment. It becomes a matter of guesswork; we keep assuming and gambling with our health, and this has led to drug abuse most of the time. I am sure that if the people concerned get a free medical diagnosis prior to treatment, they will embrace it with full hands. The cost of diagnosis is a big reason through my observations on why some people do not visit the hospital when they are sick because they know that the doctor will request a laboratory test prior to treatment.
Some of these medical diagnoses are affordable, depending on what you are diagnosing, while others are extremely expensive. In July 2021, my first son underwent an MRI diagnosis (an MRI of the brain). This diagnosis cost us $150 dollars. It was so expensive that I was supposed to do another one this year, but due to the cost, I haven't been able to do so. Now imagine creating a diagnostic app where details of the patient and other vital health information will be keyed into the app, resulting in reliable results. That will be interesting. With this, we have saved a lot of money, time, and energy, but spent just on data. Isn't this amazing? Of course I think it is!
What is your thought 💭💭 about this? Feel free to communicate with me through the comment section .
This post was inspired by the #hivelearners community contest on the topic titled "Create an App."
Why not join the contest if you are interested....
Thanks for reading!!!
Hmm... I think you have succeeded in bringing me back to this thought I had long time ago I searched play store for a diagnostic app, I was in a situation where I couldn't afford to go to the hospital or a lab for a test.
It will be a good idea to create a health informative app.
Smiles 😊
Alot of us have searched for unthinkable things..lols
I really wish something like this will be available for all.
Thanks for stopping by 👍
Seriously with an App like that a lot of lives would be saved and our resources would not be spent treating the wrong thing.
A lot of people who don't have enough money to go for medical check ups, like that of your son, if that app was in existence the only thing is to just engage it and then the doctor would just prescribe medications. That would have reduced the expenses. Just that these medical personnels will strictly fight against it, especially those in the lab🤣
Exactly my friend...it will save us alot and encourage more people to always diagnose before treatment.
Hahaha 😂
They may fight against it but if it becomes reality..there is nothing they can do
Lol
This would have been the greatest App ever.. I can't imagine how often I will be making use of it, if it should be a reality.
LoL. They will say, you want to take good away from their tables
Hahaha 😂😂
The lab scientist may fight against this 😂
Very well self. They will try all they could to condemn it.. don't be surprise they will even say too much use of the app can result to cancer..
Hahaha 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I will not be surprised honestly
Lol
😂😂😂
Mehn! This will surely go well.
It'll serve me well.... because I'm stubbornly into self medication 😄. I don't fall sick often though
Hahaha 😂😂
See the stubborn he goat 🐐😂😂
Don't worry, I got u covered for this app
Lol
Lol😄.
People that are into self medication in naija are many🤧

Thanks for the motivation 🥳
I remembered my friend who was sick, went to complain to a pharmacist and was given Ulcer medications. It was one of our friends who knew about it and stopped her from taking it. She spent a huge amount on the drug, only to find out the pharmacist wasn´t an expert.
Imagine having this kind of app in this regard, my friend would detect what is wrong, and go to the right place to get treated. There are a lot of people who lacks the financial capability to take care of their health, and they go about using a different drug for different ailment and in the end, they kill themselves because of the wrong drug.
Can u just imagine such experience
My dear, so much assumptions about our health due to lack of funds
This app will be great indeed 😊
Wow this is going to be a great creativity can't wait for this to help.....because is going to a lot of thing, most especially those people living in the rural place.
I really hope a scientist can make this happen.it will be amazing 😍
Yeah this could be really helpful specially on rural areas where there are very few medical professionals. If it can at least determine a disease that require medical attention and those that does not, it would already be a very big help and could save lives.
My dear, self medication is more in rural areas talking from experience
I really wish people should no better on the health implications of it
Thank you so much for the warm visit
Got the same problem with my country where rural areas got less or no medical professional and would rely on quak doctors and even on faith healers so mortality rate was usually high on this areas.
This will really help people in the rural areas because those people eh they can treat themselves for a living lolz
Hahaha 😂
They got it A1
Lol

Such an app will be a delight to everyone, less expenses and less stress with good diagnosis.
Indeed my dear
I hope it comes to reality
That kind of application is very demandable specially in overpopulated country. Sometimes I also searched for such kind of application in Play store.
!PIZZA
Really, u searched for it already 😂🤣
This is how much we need this
I hope one day,we will have it
Yes, I searched for it long ago but there nothing I found useful.
I also hope it . You can start making the app 🙂.
Hahaha 😂😂
Let me start immediately 😉
$PIZZA slices delivered:
@intishar(1/5) tipped @nkemakonam89
lol you are so right, any small change in body temperature or headache, we take paracetamol and if it is
getting serious they buy malaria and fever drugs, some just take agbo[herb] ... it works for us, how fortunate we are lol
that is a nice app nkem
Hahaha 😂😂🤣🤣
Burl, you Sabi the route
God will help us
Lol
The motive behind this app is very good and i love the fact that you put the mass up front first, with this app a lot of lives will be saved and there will be reduction in the amount of money spent on this scans dear, i think we will have this is the coming century dear... Developer nkem
Hahaha 😂
The upcoming developer nkem
This app will make sense
Thanks for the visit my fox
Hehe... You all wants to reduce the work of doctors? It's alright 🤣
A diagnostic app will really be a big bonus to the whole world because a lot persons can the even know they have need for medical attention even without coming in the hospital and this will save a lot of lives
How did this medical doctor locate this post oo 😂🤣🤣🤣
You are absolutely right with your contribution
This is why I will try to actualise this my imagination 😉😔😅
😅😅😅😅
We will be waiting for you honestly... We can't be sleeping in hospital all the time
Hahaha 😂😂
My doctor had given me an approval
Lol
Hehehe

I appreciate the curation
Really true
Here in ninja we are full of guess work, sometimes our parents might even be as sure as if the had a lab test
It's like we are in the spirit, I.also thought of something like this but in a different way Sha
Thanks for sharing your diagnostic app, hope it would be on play store soon
Yea..a lot of guess work goes on with our health here in Nigeria
Hopefully this app will be actualised in the future
Many thanks for your time
The app will make a lot of sense and it will save a lot of people out there. This app will also put an end to wrong diagnosis from careless hopitals that sometimes make use of faulty machines. I have seen an occasion that a patient was mistakenly given another person's result. With this app all these will be a thing of the past.
You are very right amiable 😍
So thoughtful of you
I really hope this app will come into existence one day
Thanks so much for coming through
it's true my friend. With the application of a sophisticated medical diagnosis, you will be able to find out the symptoms of a person's illness and be able to give the drug correctly and correctly so that the person can recover.
Thanks for agreeing with me
I hope it comes to pass in the future 👍😊
Wow a diagnosis app.
Well I guess it will be better than going to Google and searching for your symptoms.
Google that's known for violence will now be bringing deadly results 😂😂😂
Lovely post 🫡🫡🫡
Hahaha 😂😂😂🤣
U are right... let's brainstorm and make it a reality 😉
How much is the partnership??
Let’s start from there 😁😁😁
Be calming down
Lol
What I do??
