A member asked:
Do you people age quicker if in a coma?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not sure: Interesting question. I am not sure they age faster but certainly variious symtems in the body do not work as well and are subject to deterioration from lack of use. This is particularly true for the nervous system and the musculoskeletal system.
