Mental health is indeed a state of mind and nothing presents greater day-to-day impact on one’s state of mind than stress. Stress can be both healthy and unhealthy, driving you to complete tasks or face challenges on one hand while stirring up mind-numbing fear and anxiety on the other.

As you age you produce fewer immune bolstering cells. Your system is not as balanced as it once was, and inflammation is more likely to settle in— somewhere in that magnificently engineered structure, the human body. External forces can further erode your immune system, including sedentary lifestyle, poor diet, injury, illness, stress and lack of sleep.

Causes and Symptoms

Neuropathy refers to the general problem of nerve damage. The term is often used, however, to refer to a more specific condition known as peripheral neuropathy—damage to the nerves outside of the central nervous system. It is important to note that neuropathy is not a disease, but a condition caused by an underlying problem. This article will briefly discuss the causes and symptoms of neuropathy.

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive form of surgery aimed at examining and sometimes correcting joint problems. It is most commonly used to evaluate and treat problems in the shoulder or knee, though it can also be performed on other joints such as the elbow, hip, ankle, foot and wrist.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition that affects the hand and arm. It causes numbness, tingling, and other symptoms due to a pinched nerve in the wrist. Office workers often develop carpal tunnel because of repetitive motions like typing on a keyboard.
