How exercise helps pain.

physiomart

Great post by @the_raphaelbender!!!When we give someone an exercise and their pain improves afterwards, it’s easy to assume their improvement in pain is a result of better biomechanics.

Surprisingly there is very minimal evidence for this.

What’s MUCH more likely, is that exercise helps pain by some combination of more systemic effects, including: 
•Reducing systemic inflammation
•Releasing endorphins
•Increasing neuroplasticity
•Promoting tissue remodeling
•Increasing self-efficacy
•Improving mental health
•Providing social support
•Building expectation of recovery
•Enabling return to valued activities

All of these (and there are more) are general, not specific effects of exercise. In other words it doesn’t really matter WHICH exercise you do. They all help.

So what’s the best exercise for pain?

The one you:
* Enjoy
* Find most accessible
* Expect will help
Thanks @modernpaincare

“What day is it today?” asked Pooh. “It’s today” squeaked Piglet. “My favorite day” said Pooh.

Happy #WinnieThePoohDay! I’m so happy

author A.A.Milne brought these wonderful characters into my world. Piglet is something of an aspiration for me. I’m definitely more of an Eeyore.

Grateful to be in the privileged opportunity to escape the madness to our holiday home … Figuring out how to get food to my family is what’s weighing heavily on my heart. I’m going to need to do this till things are okay and who knows how long that will take …@AyandaThabathe

Women generally have a lower percentage of natural body water than men, so they achieve higher concentrations of alcohol in the blood faster

Since women are generally smaller than men, the same amount of alcohol will affect women more than men.
However, even if a man and woman who weigh the same drink the same amount, the alcohol will still affect the woman more. This is because:
Women generally have a lower percentage of natural body water than men, so they achieve higher concentrations of alcohol in the blood faster
Women have less ADH, the enzyme that breaks down alcohol, and so aren’t as effective at processing alcohol as men
This is why the recommended number of standard drinks in most countries is different for men and women.

40% of people said that men and women feel the effects of alcohol equally. FALSE! Women have less of the enzyme that breaks down alcohol so the same amount of alcohol will affect women more than men. #DrinkPositive #DRINKiQ
