Over the years a number of people have asked me if there is a relationship between the weather and body pain. There have been a number of research studies to address this with variable results. A new study published recently points to an increase in chronic pain from arthritis and humid, windy days. Low pressure also increases pain according to the research. Dry days were the least likely to cause pain. You can read more about the study at Sky News here.
