Stress Assisted Nucleation :sprite10:
As Dr D has remarked on many occasions, hauling heavy gear around right before and right after a dive is a good way to create the micronuclei that can grow into bubbles and DCS. It is possible that the soreness was from a decompression problem.

One should avoid hauling stuff around. :bomb: That is why we all need butlers when going diving.

We have them, they are called TENDERS. :D
 
type 1
PISS, pain, itching, swelling, skin rash

type 2 any nuerological defecits numbness, paralysis, visual disturbances
