Research has proven that there are many health benefits of reading and listening to jokes.
Some of the benefits include strengthening the immune system, reducing food craving and increasing an individual's pain threshold.
Moreover, recently there has been announced a therapeutic field which is known as humor therapy which can help patients heal more quickly.
There is also a large number of stress relieving benefits of listening to jokes.
Reading or listening to funny things in general induces laughter and laughter plays an important role in reducing stress hormones, such as epinephrine, cortisol, growth hormone and dopamine.
Neurotransmitters and endorphins are health enhancing hormones and laughter plays an important role in increasing these hormones in the body.
All these things didn't make sense to me some years back when I was going through a very difficult phase in my life.
It was only when a friend of mine suggested reading some funny materials, that I realized that funny jokes are really powerful and they can change the mood of a person instantly.
Since then I have been reading funny jokes almost every time I feel like laughing and getting relief from everyday stress.
When I was searching for funny jokes, one of the best categories I came across was the medical jokes category.
Medical jokes are related to patients, doctors, nurses and medicines in general.
From the past one year, I have just been reading and listening to medical jokes because these are really different from the everyday jokes we hear.
Each one is so unique and so funny that it will make you laugh like crazy.
The best thing about these jokes is that they are absolutely free.
If you are looking for free medical jokes, the best place you can get it from is the internet.
There are numerous sites which have a large collection of free medical jokes.
Some of the sites that I am a fan of are smilejoke and medijokes.
Whether you are looking for jokes on doctors, nurses or medicines, you will find a large collection on these sites.
On some websites, you can listen to these jokes instead of reading them.
Apart from jokes, you can find funny medical cartoons, pictures and stories as well.
Remember, laughter is the best medicine and the next time you are stressed or unhappy, get a dose of laughter by reading some free medical jokes on the internet.
With that said, here are some of my favorite free medical jokes that will make your day.
