RARE EAR CONDITION & EAR WAX REMOVAL - EP925

[@beckymundie7912]

I enjoy the medical terminology mixed in, it does keep one oriented that these are real medical procedures. I have to add that I think your energy is amazing, 20 minutes of voice over with no dead air and that with only a camera to talk to. Thank you

[@kylawheeler2092]

It's not just non medical people. I'm a 30+ yr Paramedic and your videos are a great refresher for things I've forgotten 😊

[@leahthompson6798]

Same here, I left the Ambulance in 2002. Nice to hear my fist language of medicine spoken.

[@mindisnyder8454]

I love the mix of medical terms and colloquialisms! Hope that Taylor is able to join you next time!

[@LeslieDanovich]

I have a canal cholesteatoma. My ENT was shocked with how much I knew about it 😂 I told him all about you all. 😊

[@resQfurppl]

that has to be so painful! i hope you get the treatment you need & feel better soon 💐 ❤️‍🩹😊

[@rachelartis4433]

I’m so happy you said Ebony in your lovely Welsh accent Rhys. It’s one of my favourite words to hear you say!

[@christinefigari9805]

I hope you heal soon! I’m sorry you had to deal with that. As another person said, I cannot imagine the pain. ❤

[@BoKnowsAll]

I just got a mastoidectomy yesterday to fix a really bad cholesteatoma. And I keep telling my ENT about these videos and the Mastoid cavity videos

[@ellenritt7667]

I had one and it removed successfully. Doc called it a pearl. But I do know they can grow to very harmful extent.

[@deborahdufel1664]

You're a natural teacher, you explained the last case brilliantly. Keep true to yourself.

[@renemahood4650]

I’ve watched your videos for a long time and I enjoy them. I don’t understand how anyone thinks they have the right to tell you how to make them. I’ve never once considered telling you how you should explain things. You offer the viewers free content and I know you want to make all viewers happy but people need to let you do your own thing. Please explain things how you feel the most comfortable.

[@jennyl6649]

I absolutely totally agree. I think those of us, who have been with Rhys longer than Taylor even, have watched him evolve. His early videos showed Rhys in the learning KZbin stage. He was always so kind & patient. Now if we see what we perceive as disrespectful comments, it makes us very protective. Just my thoughts 🩵🩵🩵🩵

[@christinefigari9805]

100% agree!

Love the mix of medical and layman's terms! Helps to reinforce the medical terminology for me. And I love learning that stuff!

[@honorclarkescatacomb67]

A lot of us like the medical terminology. I know I do. Those watching just for the gross pictures probably won't mind what you say, but for those that understand all the parts of the ear and the conditions, having you use the correct terms, relays so much in a single sentence. It's one of the things I enjoy about your videos. You are actually explaining the diagnoses, and how they manifest, not just going, "EWW> Look at this! It's gross !"

[@rosemarybirch3655]

Thank you. There's no reason to apologise about mentioning epithelial migration. that's fine and i'm happy with the medical terminology

[@gr8fled]

Mixture of terminology is great, thanks!

I'm impressed by the fact that an ear-wax removal video is actually age-restricted. I've seen some age-restricted videos on YT, but nothing quite like this.

[@tgraham213]

YT is getting lamer and lamer. I was watching a paranormal video the other day and they blurred an Ouija board.... I thought really YT?! A dumb board with letters and numbers?! The censorship is overkill. YT pandering the snowflakes.

I know this disorder well, unfortunately. I’m almost deaf now, 30 years since my first ctoma diagnosis. I’m aided with the use of bilateral bone-anchored hearing devices. I appreciate your videos. Thanks for sharing the info

Great job Rhys. I think you are doing a fantastic job. I think you should remember that we keep coming back to see you and now Taylor. But from the beginning you always told us terms like anterior recess, hammer bone in addition to using your food analogies. In other words, just be yourself. That’s who we love and who we get excited about seeing.

[@sherrisiegel5787]

Wow!! Lots of different kinds of extractions. A waxaholic’s dream!! Loved it. Take care and have a great weekend.

[@sandiequinn9400]

I've had 2 surgeries due to Cholesteatoma. Last surgery was 9 years ago, worried It's coming back. I keep going completely deaf again & having inner ear infections which is how they 1st found it. Tinnitus has changed pitch as well driving me crazy. Hearing aid helps in the day but bedtime sucks! Any advice?

[@manatee1220]

Thanks for shaing the video. Question. Please Why can't a bone graft be used to fill in the crater on the cholesteotoma? Thanks

[@jessicacoyne4730]

I LOVE having my ears suctioned! Ive had it done twice (once a year) and it feels super tickly at first and a little loud, but as they remove the wax it feels like its itching a scratch i never knew i had!

[@lindsayemery495]

I know you say not to use qtips to clean the ear, so I’m curious what you DO recommend for at home care?

[@lindahayman8291]

Phew! That was a lot of information to take in Rhys! Great video and I love the mixture of medical and simple terminology. Thanks. 😎

[@susanwright8816]

That was an excellent video. Just the right amount of medical terms and explanation of what you were doing Rhys! That last part with the cholesteatoma was amazing to see. Thanks for taking the time to do these videos for us to enjoy!

[@Lady_dromeda]

If the wax is supposed to stop debris and stuff, why does it continually keep building up and creating blocks like these? It seems like its doing the opposite of what it should

[@RayMichelle]

Very good question. Im also curious about this

[@hazeljames348]

As always Mr B you did a fantastic job with all the extractions. Fascinating to watch and learn about new conditions. Love all the terminology too ❤️ looking forward to the next one 👍have a great weekend 👌 ❤️

[@N.Sardone]

I’ve had surgery for cholesteotoma removal twice. They did something with the three little bones in there too. I can’t remember what they were called but they replaced them with titanium pieces. The 2nd time they also ‘shaved’ the mastoid bone down.

[@MarianneMann-ob7pb]

I really enjoy both sets of terminology. Crosswords, for example. Latin for bone. Os! It helps, too, in medical situations when the GP tells you your daughter has idiopathic dermatitis, and one can say, “Yes, I know she has a rash. That’s why we’re here.”

[@kimpalmer5582]

Can a perferated ear drum heal itself? Does it impact hearing?

Something I allways wondered is it good or bad to be waxing your ears so pulling the hairs out as I would have thought they were needed to stop somethings entering the ear

[@nicolebizybe7796]

I absolutely love your videos and how you explain what you’re doing in your videos! It’s fascinating what you find in “our” ears! The one thing I would like to see is your patient’s reaction to being able to maybe being able to hear again? Anyway…Thank you for sharing this with us! 💙

[@staceybennett9036]

My Dad had a chlosteotoma that was misdiagnosed by a gp. Gp kept putting him on antibiotics. The cholesteotoma eroded so much bone that he had to have a mastoidectomy, his ear canal sewn shut, and the infection reached his dura. He could have died. Thank you for sharing information on this.

[@hunterm8516]

I don’t know if y’all have answered this somewhere before, but how do you approach the patient about putting these videos on the KZbin channel? I’d be interested to know how people tend to react, like do people have questions about it or so some patients not want their videos posted or anything?

[@acer7552]

Just wondering if you clean the ear canal of all the debris after taking out the ear wax & all that skin or do you leave it as is like we see on the videos after the ear drum is visible & the procedure is done?

[@Sarah-lm2gx]

What kinds of D.r or clinic to go to and get this procedure done?

[@sunnydugan2802]

I enjoy the medical terms. Thank you for using them and not treating us like idiots. The people who watch this for just fun don't care about your lexicon but those of us who know what you're talking about appreciate when you use medical terminology. You just can't lose!

[@pamelaabettis7225]

You do a great job of explaining and teaching! Thanks for adding the info about wiping away the oil with a cotton swab. All I’ve ever heard was that it pushed the wax into the ear.

[@1440MAP]

I appreciate the actual medical verbiage. Yes, if you pair that with laymen’s terms, it’d be amazing.

[@christineh3866]

Agreed

[@aletheahusted3932]

I learned medical terminology years ago and I loved it. We had a 30-50 word test every week. If you learn to break up the words and know their meaning you will not only learn the spelling but also know what the definition is.❤

Great compilation video! I liked the format. Sadly for the patient, that’s the best view of a canal cholesteatoma I’ve seen. I hope s/he can get to see ENT quickly. Finally, unlike other commenters, I can understand how the patient didn’t know the dome was stuck in his ear. I can’t tell you how often I look around for my glasses and they’re either on my face or on top of my head. 🤣

Great video of different ear issues. Love it!

[@bevbarry9637]

My sister has had a few cholesteotoma surgeries, both ears. One presented so unusually (smooth and only detectable by scans) that it is now used as a training case study. She loves to tell people that her ear bones are titanium implants! Both of my parents have had them as well.

[@glossaria2]

I appreciate both the medical terminology and the occasional reminder of what it means. :D With the cholesteatoma-- was the redness further back in the canal a result of the discharge and general moisture in there inflaming the skin, or was that potentially a second one forming?

[@suzanneirving7257]

I’m amazed at what can happen to ears. I like❤when you mix terms up like this especially when you are talking about a case like that last one where you need to explain something rare. Thanks watching your videos always cheers me up ❤❤❤

Thank you so much for showing us your videos this last case frightening. In the last one it seemed pretty wet in there was there an infection ? I can’t remember if you said. Also, why isn’t there pain with this sort of thing? Is this person a regular patient? If not what brought them in, in the first place? The hearing aide dome was pretty cool too . Have a great weekend.

Well anyway all the wax removals were done greatly by yourself. My compliments to you Rhys for your professionalism. The last one you did was very interesting. Never heard about that before. You do a great job of explaining these situations to us using regular language or your medical terminology. Either way is fine with me. Looking forward to Taylor joining you again. Thanks. Iowa here.

With the cholesteatoma I always wonder how much clearing up all of the surrounding wet kind of discharge will help or if it comes back fairly fast and is time not well spent. I know referrals to ENT can take a long time unless they decide to go private and I would hate for a problem like "it's just your bone eroding" to have to wait.
