I find the question and answers @10:00 really interesting. So the collagen type 3 in healing wounds will eventually turn into collagen type 1 once healed. But why then do the healed surgery incisions remain as scars and no longer be like the normal skin? Sorry I am no medical student haha!! Just someone who loves learning! Thanks for your video, as usual. :)
It's a great question. I think the best thing you can do is find a resident and stick on their heals, see if you like it. Spend some time in the operating room, see if you like the vibe and the people. When I was a medical student I would do this after class, at night, on the weekends. I'd recommend doing an away rotation and see if you enjoy surgery outside of your school. As a general recommendation, if you're interested in a specialty just find someone in that specialty and ask to spend time with them, in clinic, in the OR, whatever time you can find! Good luck!
@@citizensurgeon thank you i appreciate your response. If you don't mind me asking don't you feel like you could've helped more people if you weren't a surgeon? Surgeons have a narrow spectrum of patients' conditions that they deal with eg general surgery usually just treats appendices GBS and thyroids , cardiothoracic is limited in that region. Wouldn't u miss practising medicine of the other regions of the body ?

Really good Dr. Erik, been a few years since I've done these type of basic physiology (particularly the first few), surpised myself. Really good!
Awesome! Pumped you checked it out...always good to have a refresher!
Doctor how would you suggest students choose whether to go or not into surgery?
