Vicious circle

I suddenly realized why seniors are complaining about their pain and they all look obese to me.

In my mind, I always want to tell them if you can lose some weight, it will definitely help in relieving the pain. Didn’t say it because I am not a doctor or any kind of professional.

The “vicious circle”: the feeling of pain versus the scary of moving. The side effects of the pain killers, steroids, and such.

Also heard that some doctors or nurses tell their patients not to move too much or it will make you worse.

Knowing that proper exercise will help to relieve the pain and improve the strength for sure.

Nonetheless, the mood, the diet, all of them play a crucial role in pain or other sickness.
