Anyone else feel like their body began falling apart in their 20s? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

In my early 20s, I got tinnitus even though in the rare occasion I'm around loud noises I wear hearing protection.

In my mid-late 20s, my vision got worse after never needing glasses and my knees starting creaking with occasional pain. I now need some more involved dental work even though I brush and floss regularly.

I've lived a predominantly outdoor, active lifestyle the last several years, so I should be quite well off health-wise, but it still feels like I'm aging faster than I should be. wtf?

Well... hopefully in 30 years cancer will be a thing of the past! Glass half full we're getting to the point where we can cure a lot of cancers, and it's only going to get easier

As for your pain now... I'm not sure you can do much to mitigate these issues you're having. Maybe just make sure you're getting enough vitamins and calories that you need throughout the day. And most importantly make sure you get lots of sleep, it's crazy how important sleep is to us
