What is the negative effect of exercise on the bones and joints?

Too much exercise can lead to injuries, exhaustion, depression, and suicide. It can also cause lasting physical harm. Your adrenal gland, pumping out hormones as you pound the pavement, can only produce so much cortisol at a time. Suddenly, the heartbeat you'd lowered to a resting 48 is up to 80. You now run for two hours, then three hours. But you can't improve your 10K times. Your joints can wear out. I have seen this in people who can't stop biking. They can't walk well as a result. They will need two total replacement hip replacement surgeries by 45.

Why would a person need joint replacement?

To work with ease, you need a joint that is perfect and devoid of pain and similar issues. Joint issues can occur during the day to day life activities and also with wear and tear due to old age. When chronic pain in the joints occurs, it can be very difficult for people. Sometimes the medications, physiotherapy, and steroids won't be enough to remove the pain, and hence we should go for joint replacement surgery. With the help of joint replacement surgery, the patients can get back to their healthy state and live without the chronic pain of the joints. Injury to the joints, heredity reasons, and obesity are other factors that lead to joint issues. Ranka Hospital, Pune provides the best facilities for joint replacement.

Why do people who have arthritis have stiff joints?

People with arthritis have stiff joints because their joints are diseased and not functioning properly. Arthritis is inflammation of the joints (cause not specified). The inflammation causes the surface of the joints to become rough and for bone spurs to develop on the sides of the joint capsule. Over time, these rough patches and bone spurs start to "lock" the joint in place, reducing the range of motion of that joint.

Should a cop taser someone with a heart condition?

Ideally, no, they should not. People with heart conditions are more likely to die from the effects of a taser. However, officers do not always have the time or opportunity to ask a person their medical history and conditions before needing to deal with a situation. Even if they do know, there are times that the need outweighs the risk.
