My Baby's Got the Bends

Monday August 4, 2008
What are The Bends anyway? Besides a song by Radiohead that is. Well, The Bends is another name for Decompression Sickness, the biggest risk for scuba divers. I've just created a new article that will give you an overview of what Decompression Sickness is, along with the causes, symptoms, risk factors, prevention, and treatment. If you still have more questions or a story to tell stop by the forum.
