The overall state of your central nervous system influences local pain and inflammation and systemic pain and inflammation. If your system is already taxed, overwhelmed, and producing low-grade systemic inflammation throughout the body, you will have a weakened immune system. When new threats arise in another local system, a shoulder or elbow, your body will probably experience more pain, inflammation, and swelling than needed for the repairs.
