Default Re: Health and Climate: Aches and Pains - Temperature and Humidity

Well, not sure this area has enough humidity or heat to prevent the flu. You may have to be in a rain forest to get enough humidity. I've certainly seen a few colds and a couple of really miserable people with the flu.

As to athritis, I have it in my shoulder and spine. It is better when it is drier. If I were in California right now, I would be in major pain because it is cold and foggy there now. Here, it is warm and foggy, so the pain is a lot less.
