It’s a mix of detective work, bias and listening to the patient story.Links:Chilblains: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/chilblains/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20351103STI and painful knee: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/gonococcal-arthritisCarpal tunnel syndrome: https://orthoinfo.aaos.org/en/diseases--conditions/carpal-tunnel-syndrome/Psychodermatology (the mind-skin link): https://www.psychodermatology.co.uk/Liver inflammation and glandular fever: https://www.healthline.com/health/mono-hepatitisSave your life in slow motion and those of others by subscribing now and sharing.
