Because of the Great Lakes most Summers here can have high humidity. Makes for hot, sticky miserable days. One trick we use is to plunge our hands up and over the wrists so the blood moving through will cool and help bring body temperatures down. Another tool is at one time, haven't looked in a while, in the sports section or hunting supplies there were basically flat ties with a gel in them that expands when left in water. It then can be put around the neck and the blood going to the brain gets cooled as the water in the gel evaporates.
Dr. Cohen says, “When we are dehydrated, fluid always goes to the brain first and gets transported from other areas of the body like joints. Our fascia, the connective tissue webbing that supports every cell and organ in the body, can become tangled and knotted, making movement painful, difficult, and stiff.”
There are certain chronic pain conditions that can be worsened by dehydration. Dr. Cohen lists headaches, migraines, arthritis, joint pain, fibromyalgia, and overall stiffness as conditions that can be affected by dehydration.
“The discs between our vertebra need fluid to cushion the bones,” she says. “They can become a little dry and brittle when not properly hydrated, exacerbating back pain.”
If you’re currently in physical therapy for your back pain, Dr. Cohen adds that good hydration is “imperative before any physical therapy” since it can improve the outcome.
