40's, nothing noticeable with illnesses, with injuries it is like they hurt more now but I think it has more to do with that I weight 15kilos more than 20 years ago. I'm in a good path losing weight, with any luck I'll notice a difference.

Late twenties and I do recover quickly - from flu and such stuff - touchwood... However, there is this trapezius ache I get often days maybe because of being on laptop or phone more. For wounds - they do get healed as usual they would at the moment also. But I've noticed there is more anxiety and fear of what if...this isn't getting cured soon enough what will happen...kinda inner monologue because maybe I have so much information now...
I also saw my grandparent die from gangarin - and so even thou I get a small injury I fear it turning it into something worse always after that incident. So I carry too much trauma now thou...
Early 30s and I'd say I haven't noticed much of a difference when it comes to recovery. I'm actually getting sick much more rarely than when I was younger, but I guess that's down to working from home and not having to sit in a cramped classroom each day.
Not injuries luckily, but with 28-29 I have started to realize I cannot get drink anymore without feeling like I got into a car crash the next day. Up until then I could go out partying Friday and Saturday and have the energy to go to the gym on Sunday.
As for illnesses, I have a "chronic" one that turns most of the colds I have into bronchitis / or even pneumonia... but luckily I got it under controll with meds. Better said we did figure the med mix out. So I can't say if it's gotten worse.
I (mid-thirties) had a 12 hour stomach bug on Friday and my body is still just exhausted. I’m trying to figure out if I simply need to gain a little weight to make a couple of days without many calories less impactful or if this is just aging.
Mid 40s, wash your hands and avoid touching your face. I don't really get sick that often and when I do its only about a day.
I'm around 16. I can recover pretty quickly still, but definitely not as well as I could as a wee lad.
