Smoked Ligaments Not A Good Idea
Posted Sep 14 2008 3:54pm
This study from Washington University in St Louis found that exposing mice to smoke resulted in significantly decreased healing in medial collateral ligaments. While the news bit mentions that smoking among athletes is lower than the population, I can think of one population who suffers ligament injuries quite often, and smokes quite a bit. Soldiers.
Don't we pay for their medical care through our taxes?
When will the military decide the costs of smoking are too high to allow it to occur?
