  • I never realized how many medical scenes were in Parks and Rec, but after so many of your recommendations I decided to give it a look! Turns out there was a wide variety of things for us to discuss, such as Ron Swanson getting shot, Ron Swanson getting strep throat, Ron Swanson suffering from a hernia, Leslie Knope getting the flu, Jerry having a fart attack, Andy and April going in for doctor's appointments, MRI's with Will Arnet of Smartless and Arrested Development, Rashida Jones being upset about people putting their mouths over water fountains, Ben Wyatt's kidney stones, and Rob Lowe's food poisoning. Let me know if there are other scenes you want me to react to!

    Ron has sawdust in his ear because he is woodworker in his free time. He makes someone a canoe as a thank you gift at some point in the series. That is also why Ron complains about the type of wood that the tongue depressor is made of.
    Ann is a nurse, she finds out that Ron has never eaten a fruit or vegetable and that he hasn't been to a doctor in years, so she makes him go to the hospital to have a bunch of tests done. The result is that Ron is actually really healthy, except that he has low potassium and should probably eat a banana every so often. Ann tells Ron to do it for Ron's wife and kids, so this is Ron trying to remember his family and force that banana down his throat.

An autoclave is great if there's no place for organisms to hide on a surface (ie, scalpels, surgical instruments, dental instruments) but wood has a lot of nooks and crannies, plus is easier to replace than a $45 piece of equipment.

      @@ozzymand1as Because then it needs regular cleaning and can only be used on a singular patient between cleanings. Metal tongue depressors do exist, and if you had tons of them and cleaned them all at once then it would be more efficient I suppose. Keep in mind that tongue depressors manufactured for medical use are government regulated by the FDA. Aside from being more expensive though, metal tongue depressors have even more manufacturing regulations because they are intended to be re-used. Wooden, single-use tongue depressors (which are often labeled as craft sticks) are far-less regulated by the FDA, thus making them even more cheap.

    When he said "Ladies, ladies" while trying to eat the banana, it reminded me of a friend. He was around 50, and he had an intense phobia toward putting anything remotely phallic into his mouth. He told me, this fear dated back to when he was a child. (I shiver to think what may have happened to him as a child to make him develop such a phobia.) He had never in his life eaten a candy bar or granola bar, refused to drink beer from a bottle, would cut up burritos, always gave me his bread sticks, and could not eat a banana unless it was cut into pieces and he could use a fork. He was fine seeing others eat that sort of food, he wasn't homophobic (thankfully) but trying to eat or drink anything he perceived to be "phallic" would make him gag and sweat. When we first met, I used to tease him about being "posh" for insisting on a glass for his bottles of beer, but after he explained that phobia and I realized what may have happened to him in the past (I never pried, it wasn't my place to ask) I made sure he ALWAYS had a chilled glass for his beers, and I was happy to eat his bread sticks.

    Funny Elementary school medical story here: my daughter's elementary school was very strict about sending kids home, if they are even the least bit sick. One day my daughter had a spot under her lips with 2 zits ( yes she was already having a bit of acne because of early puberty). The school called me to pick her up saying " your daughter has an oral infection, possibly impetigo. She needs to get a note from her doctor saying she's on antibiotics before she can return to class." She was in 2nd grade. When I saw my daughter, I said, " are you people serious? This is just a couple zits. If you send kids home for zits, over half the teenagers are gonna have to go home too." Nurse says, " Mam' your daughter is too young for acne. This is an oral infection, probably impetigo." I said, " No, mam'. She is not too young for acne. She had her 1st period 6 months ago and gets zits like this here and there. It's a hormonal issue, not a bacteria issue." Nurse says,
    " That's impossible mam'. Please go to your doctor, and they will explain it all to you and get her on antibiotics." So I took her to a pediatrician, and big surprise...the doctor agreed with me. They were just normal zits caused by hormones from puberty. He wrote us a note explaining that Abby had acne and was not contagious to other students. She was free to return to class. I loved the loved the look on the nurses face the next day as she was reading that note. Lol

      That is very early puberty. Nine is usually the low, low end of puberty start --and not super common. Of course, if this is typical in your family--it may not be an issue. But it is not normal for the average population. I hope you had her checked--early puberty can be caused by so many fixable things. In 2nd grade, your daughter would have been 7...that is so early.

The Elementary School called me, absolutely adamant that it was Impetigo. I'm like "He's had Impetigo, I know what it looks like, that's not Impetigo." "Gotta have a doctors note, no coming back until he does." The Pediatrician asked me what I thought the school wanted by sending my son to the doctor, I was like "For me to get mad and home school, probably." 😆

      Add that to long hospital wait times discouraging people from going to the ER, and it's a serious issue.

The pain was intense to the point my knees buckled afterwards, and I ended up pissing everywhere. I believe it was just the right size to not get stuck, but still big enough to "fill" the urethra.

    Hey Dr. Mike, I was hoping you could do an extensive video covering all the kinds of herpes, myths vs facts, how one can catch them, the rates of transmissions between different types of genitalia/skin, the current suspected global infection rate, and how to (learn to) live and love with them, etc. My family doctor told me it's virtually impossible to test for it unless you have an active outbreak they can swab, and by then it's already too late. This leads me to suspect that actual infections are much, much higher.
    I caught HSV2G from abuse as a young teen, but didn't learn about it until last year in my late 20s. My family doctor informed me of the type over the phone, and that was it. No info or mental support tips etc. I've done my best to research the virus myself but several well reputed, international health authorities turned out to contradict each other, or had unsubstantiated info. Either way, everything I found has been incredibly disheartening, and I no longer feel truly attractive or positive about myself or even remotely hopeful of the feasibility of my life dreams (nuclear family + pets), despite well-informed sexual/romantic interest being shown in me as a person. I've watched TED Talks about living with it, reading books, joining support groups, a special dating site, but I just feel like right when I've become mentally ready to live my best life in all facets, this came to light and pulled the rug from under my joie de vivre.
    Because of more than just the taboo, I am now too scared to go back into the dating pool, and am considering adopting cats for the rest of my life instead of finding a partner to create a family with. I've just been feeling lost since then.
    Thank you for making sensitive medical topics so approachable and taking away lots of the uncertainties and spookiness, whilst also raising awareness and (re)educating where necessary.
    Greetings from actual Holland!
    Ps. just in case you might actually read this, would you also consider doing a video on fibromyalgia? I still find it tough to explain what it's like to live with, and to this day still am not sure what it actually is I live with x'D again, very little to no help/support post diagnosis

      I was going to make a similar comment asking for a video on this topic myself.
      I have also found it very difficult to find good information on the topic and found doctor visits thoroughly unhelpful. But from what I have been able to discover about it many people are actually carriers, at least of HSV-1, it's just that for most people their immune system manages to keep it suppressed. I'm pretty sure I have HSV-1, having had oral outbreaks for about a decade now, but I have never had a test for it. Something I read a while back, and which does seem to corrolate with my experience, though it could also be due to changes in lifestyle (I've strived to be healthier to help boost my immune system, better sleeping pattern, more sunlight, long walks for excersise, eating better, etc.), is that as you get older your immune system learns to better suppress the virus, leading to less outbreaks or even none at all. When I first started getting outbreaks they used to happen 3/4 times a year, now I think my last outbreak was about 9 months ago, and it was nowhere near as severe as they once were.
      Stress can lead to outbreaks, since stress affects your immune system. I became more introvertive after I first started getting outbreaks in my early 20s. And to my frustration, whenever I made plans to travel to go see friends I would quite often get an outbreak. I'm pretty sure that the stress and worry of getting an outbreak directly lead to getting the outbreak I was worried about.
      I know that my situation is different to yours, but I hope it helps you feel a little less alone. There is absolutely a mental health aspect to to herpes, I have often felt depressed because of it. Certainly, I know for me there's an element of shame, which I know is rediculous, it's not like I have any control over it. Like you say, there is a taboo around the subject, and I think people find it hard to open up about it. I have resigned myself to the idea of a life without a relationship, not having been exactly super confident about interacting with women before getting outbreaks, but I was never all that interested in the idea of having the "nuclear family" anyway, so I think for me this was easier than it sounds like it is for you. I do have 4 dogs and 3 cats though, and 2 stray cats who live in my shed, they make things a little easier and I never feel alone. So I guess I have all the family I could wish for, even if it probably makes me seem a little mad ^^
      Let us hope Dr. Mike sees this thread and does a video covering the topic, I think it would help a lot of people.

    9:22 : You ask why he was admitted into the hospital for STREP. When I was in 2nd grade I had an incredible stomach ache so bad I couldn't move, and my teacher sent me to the nurse. After examining my throat, concluding that I did not have a stomach bug and that they did not know what was wrong, they called my father to pick me up from school and go home to rest. My father instead took me to the emergency room which turned out to be the correct choice because once the doctor examined me he found I had STREP originating from the stomach, which in my case you could not see from the throat like normal STREP. I think if I did not go to the hospital that day and not had been prescribed penicillin (which my sibling is allergic to) things would have gone much differently. But this was a unique case and you may be right in the show's circumstances haha.

After a brain scan to check for any tumors, I was sent to a neurologist. Mind you, I’m on the strongest narcotics you can possibly be on!

    I'm an MRI technician (well, soon to be out of college MRI technician, but that doesn't sounds as good), the frame the guy puts on Leslie (I'm pretty sure they're called coils in English) is only for head scans. Those things kinda work as antennae to recieve the signals your body puts out. He got a full body scan of Leslie without strapping her into like 10 different coils for every body part (head, chest, abdomen, arms, legs, etc).
    And that image kinda looks like a PET scan to me, not an MRI.
    BTW, MRIs are fascinating machines. Using high strength magnets (which are produced using superconductors and liquid helium) we cause the hydrogen atoms in your body to align a certain way, then, using radio waves, we cause the atoms to weer off their alignment and start spinning around, this gives off radio signals that the machine uses to make an image. You could kinda compare it to a guitar, where the hydrogen atoms become the strings that are plucked with radio waves.

    Hey Dr Mike! I’ve been a fan for years now and just want to say I have so much respect for what you do on RUclips as a clinician. I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy student, and for class we had to read the book How Doctors Think, by Dr. Jerome Goodman. I think this would be an excellent book to base a video off of, because it is meant for the layman and describes ways that patients can actually help doctors make sure they are in the right frame of mind during appointments to make the correct diagnoses. It’s a very interesting read, and I think you will help a lot of people if you were to make a video about it with your platform. Thanks for all the work you do!

    This is an awesome show! A lot of these weird things make sense when you understand the characters better... You should give it a two episode test run

    “Stool caliber”is a new one on me, is that about the width? “I normally drop 12-gauge, but yesterday it was 20-gauge for some reason”.

      I'm pretty sure that like 90% of adults have oral herpes but many just don't develop the actual cold sore. Most of us get it as kids on the playground and it stays with us. Cold sores can then pop up throughout life due to a number of reasons like stress. Getting a cold sore is no big deal!

    I so dearly appreciate when doctors explain why they feel something is ok or why they believe they aren’t seeing results or why they may be seeing results. When I get a doctor that just says “you’re probably ok” I just get frustrated and don’t care to keep seeing that doctor. Go figure that’s how most of the VA works so I hate going into the VA hospital

    As someone that suffers with pretty severe anxiety I always get pretty stressed out to read the symptoms of a heart attack, as they’re almost identical to what I feel when having a bad anxiety attack. Constantly wondering if I’m going to one day ignore a heart attack because I think it’s something more run of the mill.
