Loading ...Btw especially since your in a rainy area and prone to hurricanes.
I was talking my friend in Texas. She’s in the field of chemistry. She mention her brother called her once saying he’s dead, and she said he sounded dead. That’s was a mixture of empathy with humor. Change of weather and thought it’s being caused by the drop in barometric pressure in weather change. I bet she’s right, there’s got to be a study on it and there was that apparently effects CMT without arthritis to the nerves causing pain. So FWIW info I wrote her back and what I found but will look into it further. She said maybe big pharma would recognize it if they could find away and make a gazillion dollars.
I wonder why this is passed down through generations and accepted as such… Weather change. they know rain is coming.. but never mentioned in any medical classes! Maybe it’s not on the top of the list of big pharma.
When barometric pressure drops, pain can increase because the reduced air pressure allows tissues around joints, like muscles and tendons, to expand, putting pressure on sensitive joint areas and potentially irritating nerves, leading to a perception of increased pain, especially for people with pre-existing joint conditions like arthritis.
-
Tissue expansion:
Lower air pressure means less force pushing on the body, allowing tissues around joints to expand slightly, which can irritate sensitive nerve endings.
-
Joint fluid changes:
Some theories suggest that a drop in pressure can affect the fluid within joints, making it thicker and potentially more prone to causing discomfort.
-
Nerve sensitivity:
Changes in pressure can stimulate nerve endings, sending pain signals to the brain.
-
Impact on existing conditions:People with conditions like arthritis are particularly susceptible to experiencing increased pain when barometric pressure changes due to the already inflamed state of their joints.
