Message:

Can you tell me in simple layman's terms what is physiologically

happening to joints in the body - whether they are vertebrae, arm, or

leg joints - when people get joint pain from damp and/or cold 

weather conditions?



This is the questions about the age-old comment:  "I feel it in my

bones."



Thanks!
