Fun fact, when Mike says that the tiger knows the weak spots of the body he's not wrong. Tigers whiskers are so sensitive that they can sense the bloodflow in veins. So they can actully sense where your most vulnerable veins and arteries are.
Funny enough, looking at the body language of the tiger it actually seems to playing. If it really was trying to harm the lady she’d be harmed. However the bites seem to be purposefully light
However, it can be dangerous still since the tiger can cause a lot of damage even when playing
@@itsmxtwisteven little house kittens can hurt people unintentionally, the tiger playing is still a threat because she isn't a trained professional who can read his body language.
@@deathbysnusnu8303 yep, and the tiger might not know it’s own strength in regards to humans as well.
@@itsmxtwistmany household animals can't even recognise that their claws hurt humans, even when we make a great effort to inform them that it does. So yeah if I can't trust a household animal to know what hurts me, I sure as hell am not gonna trust a tiger that's being playful to know what is and isn't okay lmao
Calling a stroke a "brain attack" is fine if you're also prepared to call a pulmonary infarction a "lung attack".
Hell yeah 😂
Well, the cause of all of that is a blood/air/fat clot in the beginning.
Not sure about brain attack stroke is so much simpler sad the person who had a stroke Brain attack sounds like you’ve lost your marbles
I’m calling them what they are…clogged up arteries.
@@artchic528Not if it's a hemorrhagic stroke 🤔
As a speech pathologist, I was fully prepared to be forgotten when talking about rehab. Thanks for the shoutout!
As someone who went through four years of speech therapy because of a Thrust tongue, I think you for being a speech therapist. I know it's not easy on either side. I hope the year is kind to you.
As someone who's needed speech-language pathologists for speech impediments and dysphagia (dysmotility), THANK YOU.
As a fellow SLP, it made me so happy to get some recognition!! ❤️
Thank you for the work you do, it’s incredibly important🩷
Yess I‘m an SLP too and I was so surprised 🎉🎉
we do actually already call a stroke a brain attack in Dutch. Heart attack is sometimes called: Hartinfarct. And a stroke is sometimes refered to as a: Herseninfarct (Hersen = brain, infarct= infarction/attack)
I've come to love how much critique Dr. Mike has on House MD for knowing useless trivia, but here he is... knowing the weight of a seal...
Yeah lmao he was so dead on too. Mike learning from house.
Oh how the turns have tables
I am the king of knowing useless trivia
😂😂😂 exactly what I thought!!
I know this is a joke, but it brings up a very big problem in modern tv characters
its not that Mike criticques him for knowing it,its that characters that know everything that is convinient for the plot are some of the most lazily writen ones
Dr. Mike: "Yo, that tiger know the weakness of the human body"
Me after watching lots of his videos: I think anywhere on our body is a weakness at this point
If you’re against a tiger, that is true.
Fun fact: if you pull on the bottom of an ear, nothing happens. Pull too hard on the top, however, and you're the next Mike Tyson
Why is this true though
Big enough teeth make anything a week spot

14:43 the technician who took my EKG explained after i asked curiously that my heart seemed fine and started attempting to explain why it was fine despite how the diagram looked inconsistent. I replied "oh, so my heart rate is changing, but it's changing properly." She was a bit taken aback by how simply i put it and that i was actually able to interpret what she meant. sometimes the reason things in books are different is simpler to explain than the way an academic would usually approach it. That's why we have science communicators.
That eyeglass lady was full of it. I have worn corrective glasses since I was a toddler. Apparently, I just needed to have more faith...😠
Right? 😂 if therapy could fix my bad eyesight, I wouldn’t be paying for expensive ass lenses!
You just gotta believe in yourself, practice positive thoughts and buy those super expensive crystals and oils from her online store 🥰🥰🥰
Them: "You do not need glasses!"
Me: "Oh, ok!" * takes glasses off while driving and dies immediately *
Clearly your spirituality is lacking. You should drink some spirits, _then_ get behind the wheel.
You can just do some laser eye prayers and fix your eyesight spiritually.
Dude same. I’m so blind I’d immediately crash trying to drive without contacts or glasses 🤣
@@CiaraOSullivan1990 that's a great idea! 😂
Do not watch videos while
Driving.
The "bumble bee" is a carpenter bee. They live in holes in wood, so he probably thought the nostril was one of his homes.
😅
True
Bee be like; this isn´t right..
That's why you don't fly home after a binge night
Must be a rich bee to have more than one home
As someone with both sensory and auditory processing disorders who received help from both an occupational therapist and speech language pathologist in school I just wanted to second Mike’s shout out to them, I may not have been officially diagnosed with either disorder at the time I received services from them but they were both incredibly helpful nonetheless!
7:50 YES HEALING ITCHES! THANK YOU FOR ACKNOWLEDGING THAT AND SAYING IT, SO MANY DOCTORS DON'T THINK ABOUT IT!
I always just scratch till it bleeds
As a recently retired dancer, thank you for talking about the dangers of hyperextension! I was trained in a very “deeper stretch is always better” era where everyone was shooting for the most intense oversplits, etc. Being able to take my split past 180 degrees didn’t make me a better dancer and now I have a lot of knee and hip pain in my early 20s (and many of my former teammates are in the same situation). It’s a cool trick but not worth the risk imo.
Same thing happened to me with gymnastics and belly dancing. I feel for you, friend. ❤
yeah same, my knees hyperextend and then I went to a trampoline park and when I jumped I tore my ACL because of it, and of course it was worse than a usual one because of it, and then I danced on it and kept reinjuring it, and now my knee is screwed up to the point of barely functioning
Damn! I'm fencing and had my fair share of muscle work so far, but THIS is another level of testing your body. Seems like an unnecessary one.
Same with martial arts. As I got older I realised that a lot of my family members had hyperflexibilty and joint pain, and then I heard about how you actually shouldn't overextend your joints if possible. Every day is a learning day!
Bro I was(and am still) raised on “the worse it hurts, the better dancer you’re becoming” 😂
As an optometrist, I screamed at the lady who said you don't need glasses 😭 what she said is such a HUGE misconcept and I hate to see it shared as a fact.
I hate Tiktok.
Even assuming psychosomatic conditions can affect eyesight, surely the solution is still to put eyeglasses on to prevent strain? At least that's what mine decided was the correct course of action.
Nah that actually sounds right to me
Like sure I could go to a doctor who's spend years learning and practicing their trade and has seen thousands of patients
But why would I do that when I can just pray and think positively and B E L E I V E
But I also love how she says there's "mental, emotional, physical, and even spiritual" like do you realize one of these was physical?? And that's what the optometrists and glasses are for?
I mean, anyone who believes her is kind of beyond help anyway
as someone who has always needed glasses, its pretty feckin obvious I need them XD
Not an optometrist, but a glasses wearer. I'd like to see her "fix" my -9.75 SPH (OS) and -6.25 SPH (OD) with severe astigmatism in both eyes through spiritual means. Sure would be a feat to behold.
@@KT-1429 uh I feel for you, although I "only" have -6.25/-5.25 D sph in my glasses.
But if you ever happen to mee6 this "expert" woman to help you correct your vision, please let me know how it went 🤣
FACT CHECKING DR MIKE !!!!!
I work on a neuro floor. We actually do sometimes use “brain attack” to describe a stroke due to the similar tissue ischemia, just like a heart attack :)
Petition to make brain attack a thing 👇
My training hospital still calls the heart attack team alert the "HAT" and the Stroke team alert "the BAT" lol
START ITTTTTTTTTTTTT
It doesn’t work like that….
@@iloveroblox2242 why?
@@LeReiRei_luvs_u_all you can't just say ok a brain attack is a thing. It has to happen and only qualified people can name it
That trainer running over to try and catch the seal is a real one. ❤
True❤ Praying they're okay❤
There was no thought in that action, only heart.
Do hope they're both ok.
She…. did not think that through that’s for sure.
"Oh, look, 550 pounds of blubber is falling from that 10-foot-tall tank... I'mma catch him!"
Shout out to speech pathologists?! Thank you SO MUCH for spreading awareness of our VERY important job in the medical field and for using our correct title. Mad respect for doctors that know when and how to collaborate with rehab staff ❤❤❤
Yess!! My mom is a speech pathologist!!
Mine too, retired now and still awesome.
I'm a physical rehab nurse, and I can tell you that we appreciate our speechies!!
He even got OTs in there! And then he saod speech and i got even more excited 😄
I thought of this as an acceptance speech. "Shout out to my speech pathologists, without them I never would have been able to get the words out"
The hot spoon thing definitely works for me, though you have to get the temperature just high enough to sting when applied but still be tolerable for a few seconds. Supposedly, the heat breaks down the proteins in the mosquito saliva (which is how they numb the area then they "bite"), which is why it stops itching. Even if that isn't exactly what happens, I very rarely have to apply a hot spoon more than once for the itching to be permanently gone.
Hey, thank you for the speech shoutout!! Especially the swallowing mention since most people don't know we do that! As a hospital-based SLP that brightened my day 😁
yes!
You totally should do a "how much does this freak out the doctor?" with a pulse reader.
I wholeheartedly second this motion. All those in favor say I.
I
I!
7:18 The trick with heat against mosquito bites really works. The heat denatures the protein that the mosquitoes inject into the bite and prevents the blood from coagulating at the bite site. The protein also causes the itching. When it is denatured, the bite itches less
Still going to itch when the burn heals
@@shannonweaver2169 if you're burning yourself, you're doing it wrong. the trick is to find the sweetspot where is as hot as possible without burning you, like barely tolerable. I heat up a spoon with a lighter (looking like a junkie) and hover over / quickly tap on the mosquito bite until I feel I can gently press it down without burning me. Also it has to be done as soon as possible after the bite for best results.
@@fleggitier Run the spoon under the hot water tap. That water should be roughly 120-125°F (49-52°C). It's hot enough for the trick to work, but not so hot it'll burn you.
@@shannonweaver2169 The more intense itching that occurs after a bug bite is due to chemicals left behind by the bug, usually ones that act as anticoagulants so the blood doesn't clot. The hot spoon trick, which requires a much-hotter-than-comfortable but not-so-hot-it-burns-you spoon (I just run mine under the hot tap), uses the heat from the spoon to break down the chemicals. Yes, it will still itch, but just the much more mild and occasional itch of healing. It loses that intense and pervasive itchiness that bug bites usually have.
There are actually devices, that heat up a tiny metal tip to that specific temperature to help you with the itching. It works for me.
12:30 Dr. Mike. Are you OK? Do you have someone you can talk to for support? That kind of sounded like it came from some personal experiences
Ok
Thanks for the shout out to the OTs! ❤ As one, I know how often no one knows what we do. People often think of us as PTs. 😅 I love the profession and wish that everyone knew how cool and meaningful our role is!
"The fact that the eyeglass and sunglass industry is run by like two or three major players."
I'm glad you called this out. I used to work for a local optical lab, and within ten years it went from independently owned and operated to being purchased by Essilor, and several years later Essilor went on to merge with Luxottica. It felt like I was the only person working there who thought that was a *bad* thing.
I suppose one could argue that Essilor focused primarily on lenses while Luxottica focused on frames, but that's still giving a single corporation a ridiculous amount of power over an industry.
i work at sunglass hut. it’s absolutely true
Oakley once tried to resist, but they had their back broken by Luxotica and now dutifully bend the knee to their corporate overlord.
My concern for the ozempic thing is that my friend's husband literally cannot get the only drug that works for him to treat his ACTUAL DIABETES because it's being overprescribed for weight loss.
The same thing happened to my grandfather.
As much as I may sympathize with people struggling with weight loss, ozempic is a life-saving medication for a lot of people with diabetes, that has to take priority.
Ah that’s horrible.
And wait, people are prescribing that?
I thought people were just doing it.
@tell-me-a-story- ozempic is a prescription drug, yes. So you need to go to a doctor (or a teledoctor) who prescribes it for you
There are now two for weight loss two for diabetes. At least in my pharmacy we only give mounjaro and ozempic to actual diabetic patients, and the weight loss medications (wegovy and zepbound) for weight loss. At least where I am- this is enforced by the company, manufacturers etc
My insurance now requires preauth for all drugs in that class and it was really difficult to get both Ozempic AND trulicity (I've been on both, I was actually switched from one to the other) due to the insurance throwing a stink about it.
13:29 Unless something is 6inches from my face I cannot read nor look at anything, when I get hit by a car for not wearing my glasses, I'm sueing you
"Weak butt issue" made me laugh. I'm 100% sure my back pain is due to that but I know it as "dead butt". I remember my ex asking me about my pain and I told him "my butt is dead". Good times.
Squats with around your body weight.
Like with a bar that is set to around your body weight. A few squats and you won't be able to stand easily for a few days. But will get stronger incrementally
Maybe work with a physical therapist or a strength trainer? Some people have muscles that just don't like to fire consistently, but a lot of people can train it to work again. pretty sure my gluts and tricepts are like that. Unless your gluts are like... actually dead, in which case just ignore this.
I ran into one of those health influencers on threads the other day that said was her belief that those of us with genetic disabilities could heal from and rise above our genes with effort. These people are always just a shade away from wanting to throw disabled people in ovens.
Yep. They think (or at least, perpetuate the idea) that disability is a personal failure, which is very easy to use as some horrible way to blame them for terrible things that happen to them. Sometimes for terrible things that they do to them.
lol threads
I think it depends on what your talking about…
Your never going to get not paralyzed, but if all your family is prone to heart attack, you can take special steps to prevent that from happening to you.
@@tell-me-a-story-even this is only partially true. It's one thing to have a genetic pre-disposition to heart disease, or diabetes and other common health problems, but there are genetic mutations that no matter what you do, the genes are going to fight against you. For instance, a guy I know had a heart attack in his early 30s, his brother and father as well. He knew the risk and exercised (he was a fire fighter and very physically fit) he ate right, even went vegetarian for awhile, despite this his cholesterol, even with medications, will not drop under 300. It should be under 200. His genes made it impossible to manage his risk for heart disease no matter how much he did all the right things. He's a ticking time bomb unfortunately because of his genes.
@@jennh2096 Well and then it's important to note (I'm not disagreeing with anything you said, just think it's worth mentioning) that it's still lower than it would be if he didn't do all the right things right? Like he's still at risk more than the rest of us but not as much more as he could be. I think it's important for people to realize that even if they're fighting their genes, it's still a fight worth having and you can see results, just maybe not the idealized ones that health hackers promise
The man who was in the "I've never knowingly eaten a veggie" video later admitted (I think in the same video) that he drinks V8, or some other veggie drink, so to all those who go off singular clips like that, do research please! Many people who make bogus health claims knowingly or unknowingly obstruct the truth to make their claims more popular for social media. Thanks Dr Mike for clearing up the craziness!
Though in all fairness, it's not completely impossible if the body is properly adjusted and the eater not picky. Traditionally, a lot of cultures that live in mostly frozen regions such as Alaska or parts of Siberia, where crops simply do not grow, have had pure meat diets in the past. HOWEVER, they didn't simply live off of prime beef steaks, they then ate everything to get the nutrients they need, including offal such as liver, bones for broths and some plants such as berries or seaweed, if applicable.
Any one sided diet, be it veganism or pure meat eating can be harmful if done incorrectly, however, as omnivores, we humans are allowed a broad range of flexibility, which is helpful. We can easily adjust our diets to fit lifestyle choices or dietary requirements and, as Dr Mike said, what works for some may not work for others.
Literally loved the shout out to SLPs! I just graduated with my bachelors in SLP and will be attending grad school this fall. I love when SLPs get recognition!
Yo! How you are retaining me as your fanboy since the start of my medschool. Now I am a doctor in India and still watching all of your videos with the same craze I had during my medschool.
Dr Mike: “Do people not care about their wellbeing?”
Me: counting how many times I have almost died doing something stupid
Me: “Nope”
Not to mention suicidal people/depressed people.
You know that phase in your life in early adolescence when the fear you have of almost everything as a small child goes away, but you don’t have enough life experience to have the perspective required for reasonable fear, so you kind of live your life like your invisible for a few years?
I think that a lot of adults these days have such a limited range of life experience, due to modern conveniences, that they never actually develop to that reasonable fear stage.
Totally standing up for the “I’d rather feel a burn than an itch” community 😂
Same. Sometimes i get tiny bumps on my fingers that itch like crazy. Run them under hot water and it feels like the best thing in the world.
SAME. I have erythromylalgia and mast cell activation syndrome and it's HELL
Same, I can't stand itching all the time, I actually feel so much better putting something hot on it.
well if you put something hot on the bite it breaks down the enzymes which causes the itch. so it helps. im surprised docotr mike didnt know that
@@Neoron94 But
Okay first of all I'm just more inclined to trust Dr Mike than some random commentor on the internet but also you're not actually disagreeing with what he said
Like if you're burning yourself it still has to heal later and that's still gonna itch
I've heard of putting something cold on the itch or like slapping yourself or something so your nerves report pain or cold rather than itchiness so I'd assume it would work the same with heat but we've still got the healing issue
Always so happy that you refute so many of the gimmicks, cleanses, excessive supplementation, etc.. 🙌
9:17 I love that little muncher cat. He gives me joy.
Good news Dr. Mike! My trauma ER would actually let rad techs flag certain scans as "brain attacks" so the radiologist would drop everything and read them immediately since our patient had to be flown to the city for definitive treatment. This was to differentiate from other CTs that were less urgent and more of a CYA exam on someone who hadn't experienced a prominent mechanism. So yes the term "brain attack" is out there making its own way!!!
Thank you so much for the information❤ Praying that the patient is healthy, doing well and for a quick recovery❤ Thank you so much for everything you're doing, you guys are all heroes❤
Thanks for shouting out physical and occupational therapists!!! Y’all are *essential* and amazing at helping us become mobile again we *seriously* appreciate you 🥰
Except when they refuse to examine or work with hypermobile people because ‘there’s no hope for you so there’s no point’
@@SobrietyandSolaceyou’re working with the wrong OTs and PTs then! I have extreme hypermobility (hEDS) and have finally found absolutely fantastic therapists that have helped me get my life back in general but especially after my several surgeries. It took a long time to find the right ones who were well versed in hypermobility but they’re out there! Keep looking and don’t give up!
@SobrietyandSolace then it's probably best if they go to a psychologist first. That's just as important as recovering physically
Omg omg omg ❤️ yes thank you so much omg 🥰🥰🥰🥰 I’m so happy oh yes thank you doctor thank you omg omg 🥰🥰🤭🤭🤭🤭
This video reminds me of a conversation that I ended up joiniing at a store. "How is your back doing?" "The sprain isn't really healing very fast. I don't think the muscle relaxants are working. I think I should take more." This is when I jumped in "I think that it's a really bad idea. You should talk to your doctor." "Are you a doctor, how would you know that?"
"Because muscle relaxants relax you musles and your heart is a muscle. Do you know what wuold happen if your heart relaxed to much?"
She looked horrified and left.
12:05 Who was this patient?
Who is responsible for all of Dr. Mike's struggles?
We should be forever thankful to them!
(Otherwise we wouldn't have Dr. Mike on here)
13:45, when that lady said "spiritual" healing to fixing my blindness cause I don't need glasses. I laughed out loud so hard because I actually need glasses to see. I'm hecka blind. LOL
Nah your chakras are out of balance bro, realign your yin yang
Same. I wouldn't last a minute outside without my glasses or contacts before I'd get hurt.
Anyone who uses spitirual healing for something other than something like grieving or maybe even to help quit a vice is a total nutcase... It's like if i want it reeeally bad enough, it'll magically happen by itself with no effort to get it... and if you didnt get it, then you obviously dont want it that badly and then you lose faith because it didnt work for you. Or you double down and become more insane.
Kenneth copeland... Look it up if you want a wild ride to what crazy spiritual is.

Lol the terrible AI art on that ad at 14:24 really sells how absurd it is.
In my case, my PCP ordered the full rheumatology workup based off symptoms and then referred me to a rheumatologist after it was done because it was abnormal. Gave a jump start on things and I ended up with a diagnosis of Psoriatic Arthritis. It was one expensive lab bill though.
3:07 true. Slept for seven weeks, woke up tired af.
Had to comment to give a huge thanks for the shout out to medical speech language pathologists!! Yes, we do rehab and help people communicate, think, and swallow! ❤️ Thanks, Dr Mike!
Does that mean I should see a speech pathologist if I've always randomly just not been able to swallow sometimes? Because my pcm just kinda went 🤷🏻♀
help people think? i think could use your services then. nah, i'm just joking but I'd love to know what that means. like how to... problem solve again? or when they ask you to put the cards in order to tell a story- can you help with that?
I got the most fabulous speech therapist when I woke up after a failure to kill myself effectively. He did more for my mental health than any specialist ever.
We didn't manage to fully correct my annoying speech manner but I've got a cute growl (from the endotrach) aaand some staccato now.
You guys rock.
I have progressive dysphagia and I love the speech-language pathologists. They're so nice and super helpful.
6:09 nerve compressions, nerve compressions, nerve compressions!
I work in a PT, OT, Speech Clinic as an aide; they do amazing work that most people do not get to see.
The TikTok lady told me I don't need glasses. Never mind what my driver's license says, Officer.
the "scrubs when you bend over" meme got me. I bent over to flush the toilet last night, and as I flushed, my earpod case fell out of my pocket, into the toilet, and was immediately flushed away.
That is one of my worst fears. Its why for instance, I just leave my ring somewhere separate (Like in my apartment, I would just leave it at my desk in my room when I go to the bathroom). Can't fall in the Toilet if it wasn't near it in the first place.
If all doctors looked like him, and were as kind hearted, I’d be “sick” with one thing or another every other week😂😂
I just love it when Dr. Mike is happy and laughing ❤
I worked at a bird protection charity and one of my colleages was doing field research (abseiling down a cliff) when he came across a beehive accidentally and they swarmed and went in all his airways😬 he was treated in hospital and was snezzing/coughing dead bees for days after
Oh god... That's awful. I hope everyone was alright after that.
Subacute rehab OT here; thanks for the shout-out Dr. Mike! It can definitely be a stressful job but it's incredibly rewarding and I wish more people knew about it.
Thank you
yes! once they thought my late grandmother was having a brain attack, but she had just fallen and was super disoriented. (she had parkinson's disease, the one that progresses quickly. it was horrible. she went from being super active, playing tennis every day, to wheelchair bound in less than six years.)
Different subject, shattered my ankle in the navy. Went through physical therapy for years to find out there was a microfracture. Sometimes when something is broken you cannot fix it. That should not stop somebody from being healthy. Started working out, and got down to 10 percent body fat. Stay strong.
Are u male
Cause if you’re female that’s unhealthy
5:23 I love that the dog immediately jumped in for a rescue mission
"NEW OBJECTIVE: RECOVER THE PACKAGE AT ALL COST."
He was like hold my bone.
4:55 - It's a good thing that that lady with the tiger knew that it was just playing, so she stayed calm and gently pushed back. If she had panicked and struggled, the tiger would probably have chomped down harder, and/or her own struggle would have pulled her arm against its teeth and done more damage. The tiger was not, in that moment, biting to kill; it was just being playful- but they don't realize that we aren't as robust as they are; they can't play with us the same as they do with each other. If the tiger was hungry and going for the kill, she would be dead already.
I don't know what the relationship was between that gal and that tiger, whether this was an experienced trainer or zookeeper, or just someone taking a photo op. But good on her for staying calm! She must at least have cats at home, to know what to do!
That being said: do NOT mess with big cats! Playful can go too far. Play can switch into instinct to kill quickly. Animal emotions and moods can switch and we humans might not catch the signs right away, and they are big strong killing machines. Don't mess with them!
For sure. I imagine at some point, at least one big cat must have thought, "These tiny hairless kittens are so weak, how do they even hunt?"
I didn’t even think of that, your right!
I wonder if she had some kind of experience with large cats?
I mean if a 500 pound tiger was play-biting me, I don’t think I’d like that!😆
@@tell-me-a-story- Honestly you really just need experience working with any animal + a good knowledge-base of feline behaviors which you can easily get just by living with cats. Like op said that tiger is pretty clearly playing if you understand cat body language, and if you work first-hand with really any animal you learn to stay calm even when they're doing something alarming because if _you_ start to freak out, the animal will also start to freak out and/or see that as an easy opening for attack. I work as a professional dog bather, and even with aggressive dogs who visibly want to hurt you, the best thing you can do is stay calm. I've had multiple instances where just by me staying calm, I was able to pick up a (small) dog that was actively trying to bite me and went completely unharmed
Came here to say this. If that tiger wanted to kill her she'd be dead already. Pretty sure this lady knew that and that's why she was calm. Generally, predators only attack if they think your food, or if they think you're a threat. And I've thought for a long time that the only real difference between domestic cats and large cats is size.
the restructure of the water got me good. I AM DYING RIGHT NOW!!!! :)
I think the idea behind putting a hot spoon on a mosquito bite is that the heat causes the protein that the mosquito injected in your skin to break down. As the itchiness as well as swelling, redness etc is your body's reaction to said protein, it actually does make sense. My brother used to heat up his mosquito bites with hot air from a hairdryer, and that worked. You can also buy products that use this principle, they generate heat on the push of a button, you put them on a mosquito bite for a few seconds and it's supposed to help. But I never tested one of these.
My professors in nursing school DO refer to CVA as a "brain attack" to help us understand the patho by comparing it to another "similar" condition that people are a bit more familiar with. I 100% support normalizing this term because it just makes sense
I left the nursing field in 2011 and at that time there was absolutely a push to call a stroke a “brain attack”. All our patient education used this term.
I love how he realized its a mannequin and the first thing he said was 'thank god'
yeah because he knew that prob would have killed a real person. He cares about people😊
Whoa whoa wait a minute 16:40 what?! Whats going on with your ankle? Are you having stress fractures, tearing your ATFL?!!! I need answered DR MIKE
3:16 a family member of mine is a speech pathologist and I regularly say “I feel bad for the people you help” because sometimes they aren’t good at speaking, reminder we are family, it is fine.
I had to comment about the tiger bites. For us who have cats, they sometimes bite us softly, which is a form of "playing", from when they bit their siblings when they were cubs. If you watch Kevin Richardson, you'll see his lions doing the same. Now, the problem: There's a big difference between in mass between your cat and a fully grown tiger or lion.
13:39 my little one showed me this and told me she didn’t need her glasses… she then promptly proceeded to walk down our hallway, before banging into her door frame… yeah doesn’t need her glasses at all (sarcasm)
I hope she’s ok 😂❤
The hot spoon trick totally works temporarily, at least for me. I have bad reactions to mosquito bites. Bites on my legs turn into red welts that are over an inch in diameter and they have an intense, fiery itch. Imagine having 20 mosquito bites on your legs that all itch intensely for three days straight. I generally just cover up when I go outside, no matter how hot it is, but when I've ended up with bites like that, running hot (not burning hot) water over them COMPLETELY cures the itch at least long enough for me to get to sleep.
Bonus: As the hot water runs over the bites, it actually feels like I'm scratching them, without any actual damage to the skin. No burning, no scabbing, no scarring. It's a lifesaver.
How do you do the hot water so it doesn’t burn
1:50 As a massage therapist I can confirm that you are 100% correct! Everyone always thinks it’s the muscles in their back but there’s three muscle groups it could be! Hamstrings, Gluteal Muscles or the lower back muscles!
10:40 - In a D&D game I ran, I once had a vampire try to market vampirism to the party as an MLM.
I think it's a metaphor that works fairly well.
5:30 did we just watch a murder?! 😂
no it is cboystv
4:15 you said oil? knock knock

That ankle rap is amazing. I love it so much. 😂
15:39 As a rheumatology patient I can confirm. I’ve so far only been officially diagnosed with UCTD (Undifferentiated Connective Tissue Disorder). Originally I was thought to have a minor form of lupus, but labs have shown that I don’t have enough of the markers, so every time I go to the rheumatologist I know I’m getting a ridiculous amount of blood work. Not to then be prescribed prednisone, but with the hope that maybe my lab values have changed or there’s a more clear picture that can result in an actual diagnosis for me. If it might give me a diagnosis with answers and things I can do to feel better, I’ll do all the blood work necessary!
Omg, I have a similar experience, but I learnt it's a connective tissue disorder, fibromyalgia and endometriosis, I hope you continue to stay strong and hang in there ❤
Same, I have the symptoms of a connective tissue disorder but the labs barely reflect it. Thankfully I have the markers for sjogren's (not exactly a CTD) and so my rheumatologist gave me meds that help with both. But God the back and forth with the doctors where I'm trying to give an honest picture of my symptoms but the labs don't reflect it but I want meds but I can't scale up my symptoms because they'll think I'm drug seeking or exhibiting histrionism or something. All being a med student taught me to is be really self-conscious around doctors lol.
Im so sorry💔 thats horrible, you deserve so much better Praying that you get an actual diagnosis if you haven't and that you're doing well❤
@@nataliehale4365so sorry to hear that💔 you deserve so much better and i really hope the medications are working and that you get an actual and accurate diagnosis if you haven't sending Prayers and best wishes❤
@@SHADOW-km1xnSo sorry to hear that💔 you deserve so much better, i hope you get an actual and accurate diagnosis if you haven't and that youre doung well❤ sending Prayers and best wishes❤
What a varied, fun yet informative vid!
6:06 the crack sound effect made me laugh too much lol
Dr. Mike! Thank you for shouting out the therapists who do so much to improve outcomes for patients!
I've had 14 surgeries and the worst part of healing aside from the pain, is the itching!!
Wish you healthy life ❤
The itching and also the smell of unwashed skin ... 😮
When he said that burns are itchy, they are! I have burn scars on my stomach and even though they're fully healed and just scars now, they still itch
5:11 yes, the tiger knows. It knows where to bite you so you bleed out. Thankfully it's playing, but it's a successful predator that has to take down prey in seconds. Better go for the big blood vessels first. But I don't care if that big cat is playing. I'm outta there.
Can we just appreciate how entertaining Dr. Mike makes is videos for us? He is a true inspiration!❤
Fr
I agree he made me want to be a doctor and I still do!
same!
Its actually really hard to learn to walk again and very painful if you haven't walked in months. My relative had to go through with it a few months ago after being bed ridden for two weeks she said it hurt so much just to walk around the room.
Hey Mike, I'm an OT in training and some of the things you mentioned are things I am currently learning. Would love if you went a little deeper on some topics, explain why we do the things we do.
12:07 I can relate with u .. it happened to me several times..its like one important thing they keep with themselves and not tell u but when u r with ur senior they instantly tell him/her .. I am like " u didn't tell me this .''' and also when u write something in history they just deny it and make u look like idiot
My vet tech teacher (she was a Veterinary Technician teaching a Veterinary Assistant class) told my class that "brain attack" is a perfectly acceptable term, so I vote yes, we can make this a thing.
Getting to the end of the video - the problem with textbook medicine is that it's written for the majority, but people can vary a LOT in body and mind from person to person. Also, as Dr. Mike has pointed out in older videos, often textbooks are based on information coming from a single gender or race and those things can change your odds of certain conditions and/or the symptoms you present. So it's not surprising that an experienced cardiologist would work off of more than just textbook examples.
Thanks for the Speech Pathologist shoutout, Dr. Mike!! We’re usually forgotten 😊
Great video! Scary pics of those weird muscles in the bodybuilders. They must be delusional; I don't see how they don't know those are not normal. The ankle bit at the end reminded me of when my late mother tore several ligaments in her ankle; the doctor said that it would have been better if she had just broken it. (She did heal well. As a curious pre-teen, I unfortunately used her crutches when she had her "hobble cast" with the heel on it, thinking, "What would it be like, going downstairs on crutches?" I put the crutches on the first step below me and swung outwards. Dangling in the air, I thought, "Maybe this was not a good idea..." before I plunged downwards, and sprawled on the landing, putting my kneecap through the wall. I lay there groaning, as my mother looked up from her desk, where she was paying bills. "Are you ok?" "Yes......" Her reply, once she knew I was (relatively) ok: "Look what you've done to the wall!!!") Heee.... thanks for reminding me of a fun "Mom" memory, Doctor Mike. Love your videos, as always.
Bear tripped me out. You woke him up and his expression said it all.❤😂😂
5:24 Even the dog thought it was a real person. Doggy jumped right into the pool 😂
Dr mike when I at school someone had a heart attack and by your videos I saved his life I love you Dr mike
HAHAHAHA OMG You managed to take me all the way to middle school health class. Circa late 1980's. Our teacher asked us what it was called when the vessels of the heart ruptured or failed, we all answered "Heart Attack", then asked the same thing about being in the brain, and me being funny and knowing the answer she wanted was "Stroke", I still yelled out "Brain Attack"! LMAO!!
9:16 i mean, you dont need any food, water, air and loads of other stuff to survive, you might not survive for long but you will survive
We have someone in Finland called Maria Nordin (an architect apparently by profession) who's trying to convince people for example about that glasses stuff. That you basically have to BELIEVE to be able to see, & boom, no glasses needed. She recently got sanctioned for neglecting her pets & not taking them to a vet when needed, & lost her cat to the government.
Seems every country has its own nutjobs, even if the United States gets a lot of flack for that.
why did i not know this (i'm a finn too), i just know her as the animal abuser-
I thought I believed to be able to read the stuff our lecturers were writing on the blackboard, but I ended up squinting the whole time anyways. Maybe I didn't believe hard enough?
this sounds made up lol
@@shadow_song She was really vocal on Twitter about it 😅 Happened to come across her posts until blocking.
3:01 I had a stroke in 2019 and spent a month in a coma, and am rehabbing (I am filming my rehabilitation and recovery, as well as my late-stage diagnosis of autism and spinal stenosis). Mike, I am curious about how soon do muscles hypertrophy to the point where you can’t walk? I know I had paralysis to deal with (and still do) , is there way to gauge it?
That was a carpenter bee. They bore holes into wood to make their nests. If they can find a hole without having to bore then it's game on and the bee makes that hole their home. That's why it went in his large nostril. They are generally very docile creatures and don't sting or swarm unless provoked.
My hand flew up to my face the same time yours did when that kid got thrown off the inner tube!! Instant anxiety!
5:42 still reminded me of the crack, "What did the redneck say right before died? 'Hey, y'all: WATCH THIS'!"
Dennis , in Australia it's 'hold my beer'.
9:17 as someone with ARFID, the last time i had a vegetable was when i was a toddler. however, i’m not gonna do around and tell people they don’t need them- that’s just wild.
4:47 So, that's what happened to the Grinch.
oh, thank you for the shoutout, Dr. Mike! It's not every day that someone remembers speech pathologists exist (and not all of us work with kids) 😊
14:32 let's translate it to english. "Instead of spending money on the scientifically approved medicine....i BEG YOU to waste your money on snake oil that makes me RICH."
