After a 5 hour flight every joint in my body hurts. Most people dont seem to have this issue. What’s wrong with me?
Commercial jets are pressurized to 8,000ft elevation. This reduced cabin pressure causes all kinds of funky things to your body and especially joints. If you have preexisting body aches, arthritis, past injuries, inflammatory conditions or other auto-immune diseases it’s quite possibly exacerbating an underlying condition.
As others said, talk to a doctor or two.
