Common pain relief medication may encourage cancer growth
Although morphine has been the gold-standard treatment for postoperative and chronic cancer pain for two centuries, a growing body of evidence is showing that opiate-based painkillers can stimulate the growth and spread of cancer cells.

What Is A Cold? What Is The Common Cold? What Causes The Common Cold?
The common cold is a viral infectious disease that infects the upper respiratory system. It is also known as acute viral rhinopharyngitis, or acute coryza. Being the most common infectious disease in humans, the cold is mainly caused by coronaviruses or rhinoviruses. The human body can never build up resistance to all the viruses that can cause the common cold. That is why colds are so common and recurring.
Common Pain Cream Could Protect Heart During Attack
