Health with Sociological Prescriptions

Existence and continuity of social structure is dependent on unrivaled conditions. Necessity of continuance of society as healthily is the most important of these conditions. In this regard health resembles compulsory life insurance for society. Therefore health-oriented studies have continued thereby specializing, gaining autonomy and increasing until today. Medicine constitutes important part of the health studies. Medicine as a necessary science, a professional occupation and interfering power about diseases and health maintains its importance. So opinion that diseases and health must be completely looked from medicine front is inferred. This opinion consolidates medical monopoly in healthcare field. Physicians and medicine have nearly all drugs of diseases and health. The opinion which is right but deficit gets health into medical world. In fact health is not only medical subject. Especially in recent years, changing structure of diseases and health and renewal approach toward them confirm existing changes. For example list of diseases have been rapidly updated, some diseases has been added and some others has been canceled to the list. Similarly thoughts originating from health always develop and go into more depth. Margin of inequality becomes clearer in health. Main causes of this situation can be connected with advances in science or rapid technological progress. However the essential connection occurs between renewed social development, life standard and transformation of medical paradigm. Cultural face of health which has already existed since before now becomes more apparent with modern social life. At the same time, medicine loosens inclination of retention of health by it and it makes further room for sociological side of the health. Sociology also exists in health from now on. This article views relevant chance in health. This change is concerned with medicine, society, sociology, and sociology of health. Therefore judgment of 'the address of diseases and health is not only medicine, but also sociology' reflects main argument of this article.
