As a society, do we give enough thought to this?
There is a article today that says a woman has to have major surgery on her jaw, because she chewed gum for 7 hours a day, and has worn out her joints in her jaw.
I see many older people around me having knee and hip replacements.
Now that we are living older, should we give more thought to not wearing out our joints so fast?
We are encouraged to exercise, but can too much of it be bad for us?
My husband has worked long hours in a manual job, and was told by his doctor that his joints are wearing out too fast.
It just strikes me that we dont consider this health aspect much, and perhaps we should.
