Does it cause the tissues to expand, putting pressure on the nerves? Is it only low/falling pressure or is it any fluctuation, rising or falling?

Alright, imagine the air around us like a big, invisible blanket. Sometimes this blanket gets heavier or lighter. When it’s heavy, it pushes down on our bodies a little bit. Now, some people have joints that might feel a little uncomfortable when this happens, like when you have a sore knee. It’s a bit like how a balloon feels tight when you blow it up. So, when the invisible blanket gets heavier, it might make their joints feel a bit more uncomfortable, like a balloon getting tight. It’s not just when it’s low or falling, sometimes even when it’s changing a lot. But don’t worry, there are ways to help them feel better, just like when you have a boo-boo.
Because of synovial gases basically small bubbles of gas that are usually dissolved in the fluid inside the joints (think like gas in a soda). When pressure drops those bubbles form or expand placing pressure on surrounding tissues making them hurt or ache. It’s not so much of an issue with pressure increases since a smaller or non-existant bubble doesn’t press on nerves.
