    COME SEE ME ON TOUR:
    Troom Troom is one of the cringiest RUclips channels I’ve ever seen, and their medical advice/first aid hacks are wildly inaccurate. Today we talk about sneezing, headaches, bruises, snake bites, cauterizing wounds, motion sickness, tampons, pads, hiccups, choking, smelly feet, water in your ears, heartburn, and a ton of other stuff. I never thought I’d see a channel with more weird claims than Five Minute Crafts or Bright Side, but here we are. Which hacks should I react to next?
    I LOVE reading your comments and take your suggestions seriously. If there’s a subject you want me to discuss or something you’d like for me to react to, leave a comment down below. Many of my videos have been born out of suggestions directly from you, so don’t hold back!

      TroomTroom presents snake bite as a problem. Dr. Mike looks amused in anticipation of what loony cure they're about to suggest.

    As someone who is CPR and First-Aid certified, I know that holding and shaking a choking child will not help unblock his or her airways. It just might cause the object to become more lodged in the throat instead. Plus, it might actually cause brain trauma from the brain being forced to rattle in the child's skull. This is why you don't shake or bounce young infants, and why you shouldn't really try this with anyone. Great job, Troom Troom.
    Edit: To everyone in the comments below who are saying that not shaking children is common sense, I know. Unfortunately, common sense isn't really common anymore and I've seen caretakers unintentionally be very rough with their small infants and children, like throwing them up in the air, etc. when I babysit. And most of them aren't even a year old OR if they are older, their children are pretty small-framed for their ages.
    So before becoming a parent, PLEASE do your research on basic knowledge like this so you know how to assist your children if they need any urgent medical aid in a life-threatening situation. I beg you. It's heartbreaking to see (as a teenager), loving parents who don't know how to take care of their little ones in a proper manner.
    You just might end up saving his/her life one day.

      In the ice pad setting, it's being filled with liquid water, then frozen, so presumably they're only going to fill it with the amount of water that it can hold without leaking, especially if using a syringe to fill it, since syringes over 5mls in size tend to be super expensive & a maxipad will easily hold 5mls of liquid. 5mls is not much of an ice pack, pretty useless really, but they'd have to do really weird stuff to end up with it leaking all over their face!

    When I lived in Asia, there was an old Chinese superstition going around was that when you got shingles/chickenpox, you are supposed to 'burn the snake's head' with hot coins, in order to stop its progression! Literally put burning hot coins on your (already sore) skin to 'burn and chase out the snake' that is supposedly causing this malady and 'stop it advancing.' Many educated medical practitioners had large signs in their clinics warning patients to never do this, esp parents of sick children, because they would actually see burnt children coming into their clinics with children with burn marks. In any other part of the world, this would be seen as child abuse.

    The actual science behind stopping hiccups: when people say “hold your breath” they’re not necessarily wrong, just being too vague. Take in the deepest possible breath, and then tense your core. Since hiccups are the involuntary contractions of your diaphragm, and breathing in contracts it, you will briefly make it physically impossible for it to compress further. Then, after a bit, slowly let your breath out.
    Edit: drinking water also helps because it also helps you regulate your breathing. The same tactic is good for someone who’s crying to calm them down

As a healthcare worker, I felt your pain about how people should stop judging people for normal bodily functions that literally every other human being on this planet has. There is literally nothing to be embarrassed about it either.

      @@t0tallysetj1 I mean...if they are unbothered by it or laugh, sure? XD One shouldn't feel embarrassed by normal bodily functions, doesn't mean you can't be polite about it. Example: Move to other room to unleash the fart xD

    with the "Cold soda" segment, I actually got a realization
    car sickness and motion sickness are polar opposites
    while car sickness is usually caused by feeling motion in your semicircular ear canals or whatever they're called, but your eyes not receiving motion,
    motion sickness is usually caused by NOT feeling motion in your ear while your eyes do pick up on motion
    also hiccups can be cured by pickle juice
    and yes i tried it and it worked

    2 things
    1: I have really bad motion sickness and have been diagnosed with vertigo. Pop a Dramamine every so often on long trips, or on a boat. Helps me
    2: hiccups-literally has worked for me every time. Put a utensil in your mouth sideways, usually a spoon just so no sharp bits. While holding it in your mouth, sip water. It'll work.

    6:55 I’m not an expert by any means unless you count having family members who are medical professionals, but this method is actually very dangerous. If you dangle someone (especially a small child) upside down and shake them when they’re choking, they’ll start panicking which will make their windpipe contract, making the object stuck in their throat get more lodged or even go further down their windpipe, as well as the fact that the violent movements are simply not doing anything to remove it. You also can’t breathe properly if you’re swaying around or being jerked around while hanging upside down. So you would actually be killing the victim faster that way.

And trust me, those channels sound even more irritating in Turkish than English. And she NEVER wore headphones. I'm pretty sure she lost braincells watching those stuff. I wish you good luck and patience.
