I was NOT expecting the anecdote to go in that direction..glad my expectations were proven wrong lol. Keep fighting the good fight against hemorrhoids 🎉 hope the RUclips speech went great ❤
Once I got one of the 'scopi with an old classmate as the assistant nurse. We used to talk quite a bit back then because we walked together to and from school until I moved away after 6 months. We hadn't seen or talked with eachother since college, so we got some catching up done while she messed with my bare end and intestines. I didn't care. At that time I had been sick for more than 20 years and used to invasive check ups and treatment. She didn't care. It was her job. Doctor was kinda weirded out though.
I've always had a strong stomach and have worked in retirement homes. My mom never ate with us so she was chatty and inquisitive at the dinner table. I'd sometimes forgot my dad had a different idea of "dinner table subjects".
Listen Dr. You thank me for examining me and i'll shake your hand for it 😂. Absolutely mandatory in my mind to brighten my doctors day. When i was getting an ultrasound for an intestinal issue (Unfortionately still unresolved but we'll get there eventually 😮💨) I asked if it was a boy or a girl and that had the nurse and doctor seeing me in stitches. Brings joy to me, bringing joy to people who work such harsh hours and conditions.
This woman is a master comedian dude. She recognized him at first glance but waited precisely for the moment he was down to the knuckle to turn around and dead ass tell him.
I am so happy you decided to make a RUclips channel. You are an amazing doctor and I have a learn a lot from you. Can’t wait to see what else I can learn. Thanks a lot doc.
I have a case of what I call stress-humor and when I had to get a rectal exam I could not stop making dry remarks about the situation. Thankfully my GP could appreciate my humor and laught! Because not-laughing makes it worse since making jokes is a way to distract from and diffuse the tension, not laughing will add tension making the urge to diffuse it even bigger.
yeah, my mother has a laughing response. I'd call it a humor response, but sadly, she is, to this day, not that funny, It's rough something about your mother busting out laughing whenever you're in a stressful/embarrassing situation doesn't make you feel good if she could make someone laugh moral of the story be careful out there with how you deal with stress
@@kellynolen498 You say 'be careful out there with how you deal with stress' but it's not a choice / voluntary response, I don't have control over it and your mother might not either. I'm sorry for your mom and hope her not being perceived as funny doesn't add to the stress. Since it doesn't happen very often with me I've never considered getting help for it, I just explain what's happening in-between jokes; but if your mom does perceive it as a burden maybe there's something to be done, like a training or therapy (if she is willing to admit to and talk about it). Or she could just treat herself,or you could treat her (and yourself) to icecream afterwards to release the tension, or something else to her liking; maybe that could even help lessen the strain in future situations by getting her to think about stress-relief while it's happening 🤔 But this last bit is pure speculation of course, the most important thing about treating yourself would be to not just be embarrassed while it happens but also get a grinn because it means it's also time for a treat 😉
Hey, I had to have this surgery. The surgeon who performed the procedure is my hero.❤ Seriously. I was in excruciating pain all day every day for almost two years. I could barely leave my house. It was so awful.
imagine following a famous doctor on instagram, then go in for your hemorrhoid examination, and your doctor is that famous doctor that you follow. I wouldn't know how to react in that situation lol
I dont think this comment will be read this far down the thread but hoping for a video on why we get sick and dizzy on fairground rides once we get older 🙈. They never used to bother me, I'm not scared but now I'm early 40s with a 6 year old it's frustrating I can't go on even toddler rides without getting woozy and throwing up 😔🙈. Don't know if I can improve it 🤔
I believe this has something to do with your equilibrium and inner ear. Age probably effects this as well As you get older, the sense of balance and equilibrium, does, as well.
Will you be doing a podcast on kidney health in the future?? I know you don't like talking about urine, but it would be a welcome change from discussing 💩😝
I was not given the option for banding. My gynecologist cut three hemorrhoids and then used some tpye of cream/ointment to I believe cauterized the incision at his office. The only pain management he used was a cooling spray prior to the procedure. It was very painful yet relieving at the same time. My doctor did give me the option to wait a couple days for a pain free procedure but I was so uncomfortable.
I've had internal hemorrhoid bandings. First time was during a colonoscopy under propofol, so I have no memory of the procedure. Second time was with just a topical anaesthetic, and yeah, it feels exactly like getting the inside of your b-hole flicked with a rubber band. 2 stars.
@@INTJ82 It does work, but it doesn't stop them from coming back. So if you have issues with constipation or you push a lot and don't address that, it will only help short term. I don't have either of those issues, and mine do come back. I think it's because I'm overweight and run several times a week. I definitely notice more symptoms when I've been running really hard. And I'm not going to change that (sorry) so I'm hoping that as my weight goes down, so will the rhoids. I've opted for suppositories when I can see they're flared again, instead of more expensive procedures that only work short term. Than god mine are internal so they're not painful. But, like I said, if you can narrow down a cause and address the cause, that will make the banding more effective.
Now that is what I can say is a great professional. It sounds funny and like a whatever, in confidentiality world that is a very big no go. But the greater thing is the dude admits and even though we think it is a story and funny, that also at same time was a big humbling experience and great stuff for admitting a mistake. More people should follow this example
Dr. Karan appears to be such a wholesome down-to-earth kind if guy... I would really like to drink a beer with him sometime and listen some more anecdotes 😅
I was chaperoning the male doctor I used to work with, and this patient comes in that we knew had a thing for him (had a mutual friend and she asked them to set her up with him before. He wasn’t interested). Her complaint was rectal bleeding. So I’m standing there, hemoccult card in hand, developer, and lube. He inserts his finger, and she lets out the MOST erotic sound I’ve ever heard during a DRE. She then grabs his hand, turns her head and looks back, and says “My goodness you do that well, Dr. &$%*! That’s probably why I’m in this situation to begin with!”. The cringe and embarrassment we both felt. We got out of there really quick, and he flagged her chart for no appointments with him. He said he had never felt so dirty doing an exam. I told him I had never felt so dirty watching one 😅
Ugh. I worked a post op clinic and had to assist a doctor during a rectal exam. This old man had an abscess on his coccyx which was open and weeping. It stunk to the high heavens. The nurse sprayed a load of air freshener and it didn't work. It just made the room smell like orange flavoured sh*t.
You'll get the tips from her when she's getting better and the pain goes away. Also can you explain this procedure? I mean what happens to the patient 1-2 years after?
Notice he says the chaperone means he's covered. Chaperones are there for the doctors benefit, not yours. If the doctor misbehaves the chaperone lies to cover them, so it's two against one.
There's nothing particularly bizarre about my anatomy down there but doctors never seem that thrilled to do a prostate examine. They alway seems grim about it. I'm sort... numb (not literally) to it by now. And I am so programmed by society that I always says "thanks!" after the exam. But at least I don't make the "well at LEAST buy me dinner next time!" joke
Lol he’s such a wholesome dude 😂
:p
Getting silly
Wholesome and handsome 😊
He’ll have his stand up show 😂 someday
@@adamlotfi6445 he has the jokes for it that’s for sure. He will be like Cosby but without the uhh.. you know.

It was about to get weird
I’d like to imagine that she intentionally chose the most awkward moment possible to say that lol
I would 😂😂😂😂😂, now we’re both uncomfortable 🎉🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

When you have hemorrhoids and bleeding from your booty hole, you don’t care about anything else

you'd be surprised about how much pain some people can tolerate, just to avoid an imagined slight against their dignity....
Definitely can confirm, it's been a year but I'm just terrified and embarrassed so I just endure lol
She was probably so relieved that she knew she could trust him!
I'd trust this man with anything
Well everyone gets different experiences in life u got this
That's disgusting AND awkward
My job isn't nearly as bad and I'm a mortician lol

Bum gun is not a phrase I knew I needed in my life, but I am thankful for it. Now I just need to get the image out of my head.
Just picture a penis instead, it's still technically a bum gun.

@@bomberex7809 thank you, Internet Stranger.
... I do that too 😅
So you hit the hemorrhoid with a rubber band gun? 😂
Pretty much, yep
6 inch gun
Stupid question perhaps, but why can’t you use that band technique for colon cancer tumours (that have no metastasized)?
The end line made me cough harder that my hernia exam.
Finally, Instagram serves a purpose😅
Purpose??
That is brilliant! Must always be a good feeling being recognised by fans!!! 😅😊

I always thought the first rule of rectal exams is to never put both your hands on their shoulders
Why is "don't say thank you" is the #1 rule?
Probably because it implies you fisted them for purely fisting them, not for medical stuff.
@@JuffMan99 sounds like a Tuesday to me 🤷
@@JuffMan99it’s not a whole fist! It’s called a digital rectal exam, meaning, one digit/finger
@@Me_di not quite, it's called a digital exam, because you fist them and give them your number afterwards!

Great story! 😊
"Thank you"
"For the follow or....?"
That was not at all what I was expecting lol.
Same with other things, never say thank you lmao
Did not see that coming!!!
Having several painful immune diseases, at least I've never experienced a hemorrhoid thankfully!
They should only allow women to perform this procedure. No man, hands, thank you.
