I’m one of those people who have a nonspecific disorder. I get plenty of exercise both aerobic and strength training. It helps with maybe 30% of my pain.

People who play armchair doctor only make things worse for those of us who are actually disabled.

What is your aerobic exercise?

jnovek 4 hours ago | parent [-]

My workout routine was prescribed by an MD who specializing in pain, specifically targeting my areas of pain. Then it was reinforced over eight weeks, four days per week, six hours per day by a team of two physical therapists and one occupational therapist in a pain management program. The program follows the bio-psycho-social model of pain management.

That said, I’m not going to share details with you because your other comments in this thread indicate that you intend to argue in bad faith.

However, if anything I said seems interesting, feel free to google! The bio-psycho-social model is very interesting, it’s the first real advance in pain management since we lost opioids as an option.

These kinds of disorders — the ones you think aren’t real — are really disabling. I genuinely hope that you (or really anyone) never find yourself in this position, it’s truly miserable.

I don't notice them. Do you have numbers to back this up?

> that would be solved if they started an aerobic and strength training regimen.

What is your definition of "vaguely disabled"?

You should be a better parent then, and teach your son to not judge other people so harshly.

> Notice the absurd number of young, frail people with canes and masks.

I don't notice an absurd number of young, frail people or young people with canes. There are a larger number of people of all ages masking than was the case pre-pandemic (especially outside of the ethnic groups where precautionary masking was common pre-pandemic) but...I don't think that's particularly a sign of changes in health status as it is of changes in perception of external environmental conditions and associated health risks.
