I was paranoid once in my early twenties so I asked a doctor to check my bum for cancer (I didn’t know much about it at the time other than that it’s a thing that people do and apparently it’s nothing to be ashamed of, but I was also a bit of a hypochondriac).

one more example of “useless tests are bad”. unfortunately there are no statistics for this kind of harm. see my other comment
