Apart from the accident, divers face more risks than they expected in each dive. Among other things, the health problems generated by the activity itself are especially serious for diving lovers and those who practice frequently. According to the recent study published by the English magazine The Lancet, more pathological alterations have been detected than usual in the nervous system of divers.
In addition, with computed tomography, they have confirmed that in the brain of divers there are more wounds than usual. The report published by the journal has been made at the University of Aachen and its researchers believe that much remains to be investigated. In the coming months, the possible long-term effects of each dive in the body of divers will be analyzed. According to the researchers, this work will help prevent back injuries.
