(Best Syndication News) Pain is a cancer warning sign, Dr Oz told his TV audience on Thursday’s show. The doctor described 5 pains that could be signs of cancer. He also helped the audience learn to distinguish between cancer pain and pain from other causes.
We all get aches and pains and most of the time it is pulled muscle or from something we ate. But what if the pain was a warning sign of something more serious? Pain is a significant symptom in 30 percent of all cancer cases. The pain could be caused by a tumor pressing against a nerve.
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. One in three women will develop cancer in their lifetime, Oz said. Men have a 50 percent chance of developing cancer.

In many, many ways our hands are what separate us from lower life forms. Our hands, when used in conjunction with the boundless imagination and creativity that pours forth from our minds, enable us to create tools, art, and virtually everything that makes humans unique. Like our voices, our hands are one of the most important ways in which we communicate with the world.
As the world becomes increasingly dependent on technology, our hands are becoming ever more important in our ability to communicate. Every email, every text, every touch screen we encounter involves our ability to use our hands to shape our message to the world. That is why it can be absolutely devastating when a debilitating injury to the hand occurs.

If you’ve been waking up with a strange sensation in your hands, such as numbness, tingling, or burning—you might be in the first stages of carpal tunnel syndrome. This condition occurs when a nerve in the wrist of one or both hands becomes compressed, which over time weakens the muscles and causes feelings of numbness.
There may be some pain and discomfort, but the biggest indicator that carpal tunnel is present is a regular feeling of the hand “falling asleep.” If left too long, carpal tunnel can cause permanent damage to the hand, making bending the thumb and index fingers difficult. The causes of this condition are largely attributed to genetic factors; however, some studies point to work-related activities as culprits.

The hardest working parts of the body are the extremities-your legs keep you mobile and your arms and hands type, grasp, write, create, protect and everything else.
Unfortunately, because we ask so much of our hands, they are very prone to injury from overuse and repetitive use. If you are suffering from arthritis, carpal tunnel or other condition, there are some exercises you can do that may stave off surgery for a while.
These exercises are effective in pain reduction, increasing mobility and strengthening the hands to prevent further injury. Do these at home every day:
Rest the arm on a table. Gently flex the wrist up and then down.
