Is July The Most Dangerous Month To Go To The Hospital?

00:00 /

There are some mixed feelings about going to the hospital in July. Some people try never to do it – but some recent research says that it is a myth. The research says that hospital mortality rates don’t rise in July but that research was done by a bunch of doctors.

But lets look at these events that happen in July. More senior doctors take vacation in the summer and in July in particular. A lot of medical school student doctors are filling in and covering more hours for vacationing docs. With both of these factors in play do you think you will get the hospital’s best staff in July?

Exercise Helps Your Lower Back Pain

A recent Swedish study has shown that exercise may help create more cells in the disks of your lower back. The study concluded that the increase in cells should increase the circulation which in turn will help relieve lower back pain. To us the study was too small and not on humans so take it with a grain of salt.
