Unraveling the Mystery: Can Weather-Related Pressure Changes Affect Your Joints?

  Many people with arthritis or other joint conditions claim they can predict changes in the weather based on how their joints feel. While it may sound like folklore, there is some scientific evidence to support the idea that weather-related pressure changes can indeed impact joint health and cause discomfort for some individuals. Let's explore this phenomenon further and uncover the potential link between weather and joint pain. 1. The Barometric Pressure Connection: Barometric pressure, also known as atmospheric pressure, refers to the pressure exerted by the weight of the air molecules in the atmosphere. Changes in barometric pressure occur in response to weather patterns such as changes in temperature, humidity, and altitude. Some researchers believe that fluctuations in barometric pressure can affect the fluid inside joints, causing expansion or contraction of tissues and triggering pain signals in sensitive individuals. 2. Scientific Studies: While anecdotal evidence abound

Most melanomas start as new spots

Резултат слика за melanomas
To catch skin cancer early, be on the lookout for new spots on your skin. A recent study found that more often than not, melanoma occurs as a new spot on your body — not as changes in an existing mole. The study, published online August 29 by the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, found that only 29% of melanomas came from an existing mole on the body that changed. In 71% of cases, melanoma occurred in a new lesion that popped up in a new place on the skin. In addition, the study authors noted that melanomas that do occur in existing moles tend to be thinner than melanomas in new lesions.
In addition to looking for new and unusual spots on your skin, remember your ABCDs to spot the signs of melanoma:
  • A — asymmetric appearance
  • B — irregular borders
  • C — multiple colors in the lesion
  • D — a diameter larger than 6 millimeters.
Melanomas are commonly found on the head and neck, upper back, torso and lower legs. Spotting changes early can help you find it when it is most treatable. Source: health.harvard
