Spotty Bottoms and Jogger's Nipple

from Ask the Naked Scientists · host Dr Chris Smith

Why do we get spots on our bottoms? What is Jogger's Nipple? What is Gangrene? Why do we have different languages? We tackle these questions on this week's show, as well as find out how our hearts work and how a pacemaker can control it. We also find out what an aneurism is, analyse the conditions in which moss grows and discuss the treatment options for arthritis. Like this podcast? Please help us by supporting the Naked Scientists
