I wondered why this video suddenly got recommended to me. After a minute I realized that this could be used as ASMR because my god is that a beautiful voice
This video was amazing, and just in the perfect timing. The last month I’ve been diagnosed with Otoesclerosis and Menieres Disease, Dr. Gill. So this is the first time that i can actually personally relate to one of the topics being discussed in the video. I’m a big fan, keep the good job!!🤍🤍🦻🦻
@@DrJamesGill I’m gonna be following a treatment of taking pills and doing nasal puffs. Also I am now using a hearing aid. It’s hard since I’m only 22, but i trynna keep being positive 🤍
It’s true. When treating our patients we should aspire to the best care we can We have to acknowledge that might not always be possible, but we have to try 😊
I've lost the hearing in my right ear due to a vestibular schwannoma. I had cyber knife radiation treatment, rather than surgery, as there was a better chance my hearing would survive. Sadly it didn't. Not been for a year, though. But thank you for this, or has encouraged me to goand just get an aid.
My word! That’s quite a story! I’m sorry it wasn’t entirely successful. I’ve had similar patients, and the surgery has also lead to issues with the facial nerve, so perhaps the radiation was the right option?
@@DrJamesGill That was the recommendation, indeed. The cyber knife was remarkable: 3 days, 3 half-hour sessions. No ill effects - apart from the eventual hearing loss. The tumour shrunk from 29mm to 21 mm between February 2020 (the treatment), and August 2020 when I had an MRI. Was due one in August 2021 too but never transpired; busy with Covid, I imagine.
dr gill, i will probably become a nurse this fall on my way to becoming a med student, and your videos keep me going as i finish school, had my first exam today, actually! please know the educational and inspirational value of your videos does not go unnoticed and continously motivate me to go towards what i want the most … thank you for everything you do
Very true. Medicine is about the best care we can manage, and actively choosing a middle ground where we have the ability to reasonably choose the best… isnt really acceptable 😊
I stumbled upon your videos a while ago and was an art student at the time. A year later I’m now a med student and I can not be more grateful for your videos for not only teaching me but also having a part in inspiring me to change my career choice.
I’m a big fan of the words on screen having a background behind them :) makes them much easier to read! Wonderful and informative video as always. Thanks Dr. Gill, have a great weekend!
My youngest son was born hard of hearing. (Bilateral hearing aids since 3 months old). He has a mixed hearing loss (more sensory loss than conductive). Thank you for explaining the difference.
I’m sorry to hear about your son. However I’m aware that the technology for hearing impaired individuals has improved TREMENDOUSLY in the last decade How old is your son if you don’t mind me asking?
These videos are heading in a great direction. Not a student or professional in the field, just a guy in his 30s more mindful about his health. Thank you!
@@DrJamesGill I am aware of this, you may recall my previous comments about pictures and diagrams presented not long enough for me to understand. This time the balance was perfect even for an untrained intellectual.. at least that's how I like to think about myself.
@@DrJamesGill yeah part of why is due to my own curiosity in the subject, while the other is hoping I can make others have a better experience than I did.
So, I heard recently that there is such a thing as psychosomatic blindness, and now I'm wondering, is there psychosomatic deafness? And would there be a way to test it?
Interesting video. My ENT said that I had lost my hearing in my left ear due to a virus (this was ten years ago, so not COVID). It mostly came back after a course of steroids, but one night it was like somebody unplugged a stereo speaker, the room started spinning and it never came back. After a few years, I was examined by an audiologist and was told that I have a big scar on my eardrum. Hearing aid doesn’t do much other than amplify indecipherable noise. Oh well, maybe they’ll come up with something one day.
Was looking for asmr but found this and still learned some cool things. The blockage like earwax that can cause things to sound louder while being plugged cause of the bones in your ear makes so much sense as to why when that happens I can like hear my head functions more like blood flow, pulse, etc.
So basically, lets say a patient hears the Weber's test better in the left ear, they either have a sensorineural hearing loss in the right ear or a conductive hearing loss in the left one, right? And to verify this we need to use Rinne's test to see if the Bone Conduction for the left ear is better than its Air conduction: if BC > AC, it's a conductive hearing loss in the left ear, if it is not, most likely the AC in the right ear will be less effective than the BC which will show a sensorineural hearing loss in the right ear. Did I get this right? I'm not a medical student but as a student in audio engineering everything about sound is fascinating to me Thank you so much for the videos, I subscribed for more :) you never know when you might switch careers lol
For unintentional ASMR, I liked the older videos more. I always get the most tingles when Dr. Gill is examining something and thinking out loud to what he is doing. Or gives very calm instructions.
ASMR community aside, Dr. Gill provides excellent educational videos. Really appreciate his videos. I feel asleep before we got to the test, however. The tingles were too much
I just want to say that I watch these videos because: the ASMR factor, and for practicing my English listening Thank you Dr Gill!! I learn so much about medicine and clinical stuff too
I have sensorineural hearing loss in my right ear and have lived with tinnitus for almost 10 years now. Thankfully, my hearing is mostly normal except for a certain range in my right ear (and the constant ringing). I'm sure my wife would beg to differ, though. 🤣
Well, the easiest thing to do was to just keep on living my life. If you let it drive you mad, it will. Gladly, I can still enjoy music and everything since my hearing is mostly intact. The goal now is to preserve what I have.
I had tinnitus when I flew with a congested nose and my ear drum ruptured. It was driving me crazy until I started using white noise. Especially to sleep. I hope this helps if you haven't figured it out yet.
Update: I will be undergoing a septoplasty and sinuplasty in June. My ENT doc didn't have much to say about the tinnitus, but he's pretty firm that it's time to finally correct my deviated septum as trying to remedy my recent ear issues with medication (and visits to an allergist) haven't been successful.
Thanks again! An idea for future videos is that it could be good to do a quick debrief from the patients perspective. I.e. you could ask Abby "how was that for you?", "was bone or air conduction louder for you?", "was the bone conduction unpleasant?" (perhaps you could talk about a scenario where it might be). Also I remember as a child having a hearing test with beeps via headphones, might have been a nice way to have some viewer participation. Keep up the great work!
This is really interesting. I struggle with my hearing but whenever I go for a test I'm told it's fine, although I need subtitles on the tv and if I hear two sounds at once I can't hear either well 🤔 Not sure what's going on.
Ok, so I think the first thing that would need to be established is WHAT is the hearing issue, and then carry on from there Have you actually had hearing test where they have you listening to various tone?
Dr Gill, your voice is heavenly. If it wasn't for you riveting lectures which I'm sure your tutees love, I wouldn't be surprised if your students fell asleep because of your euphonious voice.
I had one of these when I was in my early 20s but I didn't realise it had a name! They found that my hearing was normal but I was experiencing a lot of physical blockages because my sinuses are about .0000000734 nanometers in width and I get snot backed up in the system constantly. Now I'm in my 50s but I'm still not using my nasal spray. Metallica overcomes most barriers :D
I have auditory processing disorder so my brain hears everything equally and doesn’t distinguish background noises from relevant noises making it harder for me to process relevant noises such as someone trying to speak to me because I’m simultaneously listening to all of the other noises around me such as a ticking clock, running furnace, passing car, radio or television on in the background etc. but I was also born with ears that didn’t internally form properly which frequently causes them to build up with wax blocking some of my hearing if I’m not careful so I’ve always found this topic rather interesting. Because of the information overload I sometimes have trouble with my speech as a result and words in my brain don’t always make it back out to my mouth properly because they get stuck in a traffic jam along the way which is very frustrating. Ironically using sign language completely bypasses the issue for me because it’s a visual language but not enough people know it for me to communicate with it effectively. Fascinating stuff!!!
Hello. How are you. Doctor, I am with you, your brother from Iraq. I have a problem. I am sick and have been suffering from severe hearing loss ever since. During childbirth, I hear very little when someone speaks. A person is in front of me, opposite my ear, to the right. I can hear. If I am about two meters away from a person, I do not hear or understand. If I leave his medical stethoscope on, I can hear and understand the words. And planning. Hearing on the right side is 90%100 and the second is 100%100. I did not hear. Please doctor, save me. He has been treated. Many doctors did. Take advantage. Among them is a God from God who heals God Almighty. Please, Your Honor, save me for treatment for severe hearing loss. Do you have it? Greetings to you.❤❤
Audiogram with hearing loss on left. Weber lateralizes to the left ear, but AC>BC. Conductive because of the audiogram and localization, or Mixed because of Rinne AC>BC component?
What is seen in the Weber test of a subject suffering from neural hearing loss in the right ear only? 1) will hear the sound better in the right ear 2) will hear the sound in the center of the head 3) will hear the sound weaker in the right ear 4) will hear the sound better when we attach the speaker to the mastoid
Good video. Although I would stress that vestibular schwannomas are rare and the most common type of sensori-neural hearing loss is with age and general wear and tear to the cochlear's hair cells.
Dr. Gill, I have a question! Not being in medicine, it's difficult to gauge this myself. After watching the Rinne test here, I recall that 42m25s into this video: ruclips.net/video/ONRX9yGLXXM/видео.html, Dr. Martin Samuels advised against waiting for the sound to disappear in the first stage of the Rinne test, due to the tuning fork's vibration dissipating at a non-linear rate, thus causing a false positive when the patient can't hear the sound through air conduction. He also said the Weber test is very hard to use effectively in normal practice, due to noise and difficulty of patients in perceiving where the sound is coming from. I'm curious to know your thoughts on that; from a physics perspective it seems plausible to me but I don't know well the dissipation speed of tuning fork vibration (or whether it is really relevant in clinical practice, whether it's just down to specific tuning forks behaving differently in that regard, etc...) Anyway, I'm enjoying watching your videos as always. It's very interesting learning more about medicine and the details of different parts of it from them!
I wonder if that’s is a hospital medicine issue - GP rooms are generally quiet, so no problems with Webbers As for waiting for the sound to disappear, I’ll have to check what he means, as by definition of the test, the patient has to not be able to hear the sounds any more from the bone conduction - so moving around before the sound has been lost might add in errors
I thought the framing was strange, but Dr.'s shirt camouflaged against the wall :D Thank you for the video, informative as always. Hearing loss runs in my paternal family line and I need to have my hearing regularly checked. They use the headphone bleep method.
audiometry like that is really useful for looking at changes in ability to hear tones - as it can potentially pick up things before the patient is aware In my opinion we don’t do enough screening medicine, to try to catch things early
My first cholesteatoma ate most of of my left ossicles and a huge chunk of my mastoid. My second cholesteatoma ate what was left. If you need a trick audiology patient for your students to throw them off, I’m in.
@@DrJamesGill Not very I’ve had him for a little over a week and he has already gotten trapped behind the filter a dozen times. He also likes to spend long periods of time staring at his own reflection. So he’s an idiot who thinks he’s pretty, he takes after me well!
@@DrJamesGill hey consider it a fair trade-off! Most ppl (especially in the USA) struggle to keep their weight in check. I don't need to tell you Doctor, but being nice and lean like that is fantastic for your overall health and energy!
So good as always! Hi Abby! Soz Doc you lost me about halfway through, it got a bit too scientific and technical for me! I'm not so good at Dr Techno stuff! Doh! Plus you are so softly spoken, which is nice, but I thought I was suffering a hearing loss at first and had to increase my volume! Lol
I have sensorial hearing loss in both ears , starting wearing hearing aids 5 years ago. The Audiologist told me that i was most like born with the hearing loss. Would love to know what the life span of well looked after hearing aids are?
Ahhh yes… the sacred and most anticipated return of our High Interspacial Alpha God Ms Abby, still in search for the key to achieving the ultimate life form I see. Abby grows closer to the answer with each examination, only a few billion more variations in the timeline must occur before her true goal is achieved by my estimation…
I have heard that they should be able to hear in air conduction twice as long as bone conduction. Is that true? BTW, I am not a medical professional of any sort, just enjoy learning.
Good video Dr Gill. I have hearing loss in my left ear due to use of a shotgun for years. First noticed it when lying in bed on my good ear. When I lived my head I could then hear a house alarm going off down the road. Put my good ear back on the pillow and the sound was gone. Bit depressing initially. I went for a hearing test and was fully expecting to need a hearing aid but the guy said I only I had only a narrow frequency of hearing loss and a hearing aid wouldn't help. Interesting. Still pretty deaf in my left ear though.
@@jodyjackson5475 ah dont worry about it man. I did too for a while and then you get used to it. If your other ear is in good nic you will be grand. I do put an ear plug in that ear when i go shooting now though.
Why is it that bone conduction hearing aids involve drilling a hole in the persons head and hooking what looks like one of those anti-theft tags you see in clothes shops on to the back of their head, when there are bone conductive headphones available on the market that also work against conductive hearing loss, but for some reason they are only marketed as for leisure?
Honestly, I was palpating a vein today - and honestly after I’d finished with the patient I thought EXACTLY the same. We are amazing, and there are SO many analogies to machines. I almost feel down a Battlestar Galatica hole for a moment
Dr. Gill is like the Bob Ross of medicine.

Thank you for the video, informative as always.
Hearing loss runs in my paternal family line and I need to have my hearing regularly checked. They use the headphone bleep method.
audiometry like that is really useful for looking at changes in ability to hear tones - as it can potentially pick up things before the patient is aware
In my opinion we don’t do enough screening medicine, to try to catch things early
My first cholesteatoma ate most of of my left ossicles and a huge chunk of my mastoid. My second cholesteatoma ate what was left. If you need a trick audiology patient for your students to throw them off, I’m in.
Gosh TWO! That’s unusual! Was it a recurrence or two separate issues?
I would hear the first test in my left ear, not completely deaf in my right but it’s significantly weaker than my left
It does depend what the sort of hearing impairment is.
This dude kinda look like Jim and Dwight combined from the office
Since when is “old age” a disease or physiological impairment?
It is actually a legitimate cause of death on a death certificate. Similarly age related hearing loss is one of the commonest causes
Bruh this fella is smarter than my fish 🐠
The question is how smart is the fish?
@@DrJamesGill Not very I’ve had him for a little over a week and he has already gotten trapped behind the filter a dozen times. He also likes to spend long periods of time staring at his own reflection. So he’s an idiot who thinks he’s pretty, he takes after me well!
Why am I here, it's 4:44 am right now I should be asleep
These two are quickly gaining legendary status

Fascinating as always, thank you for your hard work on these videos Dr. Gill
does the sticker of asrm slogan good for my bike Doctor.?
Everything that I know about medicine is for you Dr Gill
👍
How do you stay so skinny? It's amazing
Conversely why cant I bulk up
@@DrJamesGill hey consider it a fair trade-off! Most ppl (especially in the USA) struggle to keep their weight in check. I don't need to tell you Doctor, but being nice and lean like that is fantastic for your overall health and energy!
Abby looks so fed up in the thumbnail😂
Unfortunately it was the best I could take from the video
@@DrJamesGill We had just done two hours of finals prep and my brain was beginning to short circuit :D
I had no need to watch this but very informational and relaxing nice job
Gaining info and knowledge it always a good use of time. There are many channels I watch on here just for that 😊
Could you also ask them what sounds louder when doing Rinne’s test?
Not really. As you only move from the mastoid when that sound has disappeared
Hey doctor how do you call it if you hear voices that are confirmed the same as what people speak ...
I’m sorry I don’t quite follow the question
So good as always! Hi Abby! Soz Doc you lost me about halfway through, it got a bit too scientific and technical for me! I'm not so good at Dr Techno stuff! Doh!
Plus you are so softly spoken, which is nice, but I thought I was suffering a hearing loss at first and had to increase my volume! Lol
What will be the result of Weber's test for bilateral snhl?
Abby and dr Gill the best team.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have sensorial hearing loss in both ears , starting wearing hearing aids 5 years ago. The Audiologist told me that i was most like born with the hearing loss. Would love to know what the life span of well looked after hearing aids are?
I’m honestly not sure. I think I recall it is something like 5-10yrs.
But that may be a affected by make and model
@@DrJamesGill thanks
I'm unironically learn
👍
Thanks for explaining as you go along, I've always wondered why doctors do certain things that don't necessarily seem obvious at first.
I’m hoping this new way of doing the examinations is helpful 😊
@@DrJamesGill It most certainly is Dr. Gill. I hope to see more of these sort of videos in the future. All the best!
Ahhh yes… the sacred and most anticipated return of our High Interspacial Alpha God Ms Abby, still in search for the key to achieving the ultimate life form I see. Abby grows closer to the answer with each examination, only a few billion more variations in the timeline must occur before her true goal is achieved by my estimation…
Abbie... repping the 7th Dec crew 🤜🤛
I have heard that they should be able to hear in air conduction twice as long as bone conduction. Is that true? BTW, I am not a medical professional of any sort, just enjoy learning.
I’ve not heard that specifically. But think that it might not be accurate as there are so many variables
@@DrJamesGill Thank you!
Good video Dr Gill. I have hearing loss in my left ear due to use of a shotgun for years. First noticed it when lying in bed on my good ear. When I lived my head I could then hear a house alarm going off down the road. Put my good ear back on the pillow and the sound was gone. Bit depressing initially. I went for a hearing test and was fully expecting to need a hearing aid but the guy said I only I had only a narrow frequency of hearing loss and a hearing aid wouldn't help. Interesting. Still pretty deaf in my left ear though.
I’m the same on my right. It’s depressing as hell
@@jodyjackson5475 ah dont worry about it man. I did too for a while and then you get used to it. If your other ear is in good nic you will be grand. I do put an ear plug in that ear when i go shooting now though.
I learn alot when I come here to relax lol thats the best kind of learning
Learning is power 😊
Why is it that bone conduction hearing aids involve drilling a hole in the persons head and hooking what looks like one of those anti-theft tags you see in clothes shops on to the back of their head, when there are bone conductive headphones available on the market that also work against conductive hearing loss, but for some reason they are only marketed as for leisure?
Wonderful information and presentation!
In my opinion, the doctor is cute.
ok fine I'll do it... Any double vision?
I love these videos :) the human body is an incredible machine
Honestly, I was palpating a vein today - and honestly after I’d finished with the patient I thought EXACTLY the same.
We are amazing, and there are SO many analogies to machines. I almost feel down a Battlestar Galatica hole for a moment
Dr. Gill could you do a explanation on phoropters
I have to get an eye exam every couple years and would like to know how they actually work
a harry potter reading would be great :)
i hope they use these videos with student doctors
AAAAAdequate! Love it!
I'm no doctor or nurse but I just love how the information is provided and presented by Dr Gill such amazing person thank you
I’m grateful you find it accessible! 😊 thank you
Abbie!! ❤ I wonder if she has any idea how many fans she has.
