Human Wounds Heal More Slowly Than Those of Other Primates: A Study

"This is fascinating! I never knew humans healed so slowly compared to other primates."

"Does this mean we should have more body hair for better healing?"

"Interesting study! What other factors might affect healing rates?"

"I wonder how this affects recovery from surgery."

"Could this have implications for how we treat wounds in modern medicine?"

"So, if we had more fur, we might heal faster? Sounds like a funny evolutionary trade-off!"

"Is there a way to enhance our healing rates despite this evolutionary quirk?"

"This study makes me appreciate the complexity of human evolution!"

"Maybe early humans found ways to adapt to slower healing through social practices."

"Could this research lead to new treatments for wound care? Let's hope so!"
