bends
bends (decompression sickness) Syndrome, mostly seen in divers, featuring pain in the joints, dizziness, nausea, and paralysis. It is caused by the release of nitrogen into the tissues and blood. This occurs if there is a too rapid return to normal atmospheric pressure after a period of breathing high-pressure air (when the body absorbs more nitrogen). Treatment involves gradual decompression in a hyperbaric chamber.
