#1 Back Pain Side Effect People Are Afraid To Talk About

For some fortunate souls, the side effects of lower back pain don’t go beyond the occasional aches and pains, and the only remedy they require are over the counter pain meds. But for too many others, the side effects of lower back pain are much more severe. And new evidence confirms what many back doctors have long suspected — there is a strong link between chronic back pain and depression.
However, one piece of new information did surprise doctors: the link between back pain and depression can go both ways. That means not only can back pain cause depression, but depression can also cause low back pain. Not only that, but treating depression sometimes improves

What You Need to Know About Melanoma

Skin cancer is a scary business, and if you aren’t paying attention to the signs it can result in death. Melanoma is the most severe form of skin cancer, but it is highly curable if detected early.

Why Sexual Health is Just as Important as Your Overall Well Being

Your sexual health is an integral part of your overall health and well being. The two go hand in hand, and can greatly affect each other if one begins to suffer. In fact, one’s sexual health can help to identify potentially dangerous health conditions such as high blood pressure and even cancer.

Even a lack of desire or a low sex drive can be an indicator of a hormonal imbalance or a precursor to a more serious illness, many of which are discovered during routine physical exams or STD testing procedures.
Unfortunately, sexual health often gets put on the back burner due to a number of differen
