But why does this happen? What’s the connection between winter and body pain, and how can you protect yourself from it? What role does AC play, if any, in causing pain?
Dr Raviprasad Kattimani said,“A lot of people will soon start complaining about joint pain and body aches. If someone already suffers from chronic pain or arthritis, the pain will flare up further."
“When the temperature drops, our blood vessels constrict to help preserve core body heat. This reduced blood flow to muscles and bones can lead to spasms and discomfort,"
Additionally, winter also encourages a more sedentary lifestyle, with many people choosing to stay indoors. This lack of activity can contribute to muscle stiffness and joint pain.
