A member asked:
How can i physically tell that i have a weak immune system without going to the hospital? is there a way to do a self evaluation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No. The immune system is a complex one with multiple components. If you have not been hospitalized with major invasive infections by age 24 your system is likely fine. Having a cold or two every season or minor focal infections occasionally that respond to treatment does not make your system weak.
