My mother actually saved her doctor's life (yes I have that the right way around!) by pointing out to him that he was jaundiced. He'd turned yellow pretty gradually so everyone who saw him day to day didn't really notice, but mum saw him twice a month apart and pointed it out to him at the second appointment. He told her at the follow up appointment after that that he'd gotten tested and she was right.

Exfoliating with random sand is WILD to me. You’re creating microtears in your skin, and whatever bacteria is in the sand or in the water, you’re now giving new potential entry points into your body. Plus, that’s a harsh exfoliation, you’ll irritate and potentially scratch/scar your skin.

I had over 150 ticks on me when I was stationed in Panama. We were doing jungle warfare training and I knelt down to reload my mags. As we were getting ready to go, I noticed my BDU pants were no long "Camo" but black and crawling. I jumped up and tried to brush it off with my hands, which did not work. Another guy came to help try to get the ticks off as he saw me struggling. We pulled out our bayonets to scrape them of. It kind of worked. Then we thought about the bug juice we were issued. literally covered my pants with it and one foot. Before getting yelled at to move out. The next more when I woke up and started walking my foot tingled. I took my boot off and it looked like I was still wearing a boot....a Tick Boot. Went to the medical clinic and they counted over 150 ticks that they removed. I was SUPER lucky I did not get Lyme or Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.

Instead we want to be gentle with them. Putting ice on a burn is like yelling at a crying friend to calm down, and using cool running water is being gentle and actually helping them relax.

Little did I realize the gold rim on the plate would be very hot upon coming out of the microwave and I put my thumb right on it. The burn was extremely painful and I immediately put ice on it. Then I couldn't take the ice off. I mean, I could physically, but as soon as I did, the came came back 10x. Even an hour later I couldn't not have ice on my thumb. I couldn't even take the ice off my thumb long enough to change the baby. I have no idea how but I managed to change a diaper one handed lol. Now I always check for metal rims and I never put ice on burns.

It might be that the US guidelines are different or lagging behind, but about 10 years ago we changed our guidelines on treating burns from using cold water for the first two minutes, to now we only recommend using room temp water. Room temp, running water, is very efficient in cooling down soft tissues affected with burns, and as you said, we don't want to go from one extreme to the other. I've seen several cases of second degree burns accompanies with second degree frost bite - that's not really what you want.

I want to share a perspective that seems pretty obvious to me. Answering the question of “why do people try home remedies for things that have actual treatments backed by science?” I personally HAVE TO use actual medical treatments because I would die without them, but I’m in a great deal of medical debt because of it. The cost to be seen by a doctor, have labs run, then fill a prescription is a lot of people’s entire monthly income. So a lot of people are gonna try a $6 oil from GNC first because they LITERALLY cannot afford to see a physician. This is a very real and common problem in America. My brother’s coworker died because he aged out of his parent’s insurance and couldn’t afford his insulin. I absolutely agree that people should ALWAYS seek actual medical care for an ailment of any kind, but it’s a sad reality that some people just don’t have the access.

Yup, I always use gloves when washing up or my hands start flaking after a week. As for thick oil or grease it can help to wash it off with a lighter oil such as olive oil first as oil is soluble in oil. Then once the worst of it is gone the lighter oil should come off with regular hand soap.

I remember when my child had jaundice. It was Halloween of his Senior year. I brought him his costume to put on before the party with his after school club (it wasn't inappropriate for school, it just would have been uncomfortable as heck all day). But as I started helping him put it on, I noticed how yellow his skin was. I don't know how none of his teachers noticed all day. So after getting a second opinion to be sure I wasn't just seeing things, we spent Halloween in the ER and he had emergency Gallbladder surgery as a gall stone blocked a bile duct. It was terrifying.

While I think it's wise to steer people away from the idea that every illness can be treated by "natural" means, outright rejecting them all is just as bad. It's important to stay open-minded and not dismiss treatment options prematurely. In general, I feel it's better to avoid making blanket statements about treatments that could be somewhat misleading.

Ok, Chemistry Graduate who also went to medical school here. Chances are the Detergent is actually a phospholipid. It doesn’t “melt” the makeup off, the lipid part of the molecule essentially dissolves (attracts) the lipids (or to be strictly accurate the aliphatic) parts of the makeup and then water will strongly attract (dissolve) the phosphate part of the molecules and basically pull everything into the water solution when you rinse. A low concentration of detergent in water is actually better than using cheap soap. And wouldn’t be particularly harmful as a first pass if you had heavy makeup on. Then use the micellar water. Incidentally that’s a detergent in water too but at a low enough concentration and made so that it forms little spheres of detergent so only very little of it gets used!

I like essential oils for grounding when I’m anxious. I also have chronic headaches and find peppermint oil helps sometimes. It doesn’t make the headache go away per se, but it causes a little tingling that distracts the nerves , giving my nervous system a different thing to notice than the headache. It also smells nice. I totally agree with Dr Mike, essential oils aren’t curative but if you have the right expectations, they can be nice to supplement regular medical care. ❤

I think there are a lot of intersecting reasons that people go for "alternative" (unsupported) treatments. Plenty of marginalized people have had really bad experiences with doctors. It's not uncommon to have doctors dismiss problems and pain in those populations, and send them home with pretty much nothing. In the case of the black community, they have a history of not trusting the american medical system for very good historical reasons. (Tuskegee is probably the most famous incident of medical experimentation on african americans, but it is far from the only one.) People who have difficult to diagnose complaints may find themselves thinking "well maybe my problem hasn't been solved because conventional medicine doesn't have the answer." Also, while essential oils and things like that can be expensive, they're generally still less expensive than seeking medical treatment without insurance. (People can still be uninsured in the US for lots of reasons.) Or, even if they have insurance, they may not be able to easily get treatment in their area due to a shortage of care providers. There can also be a lack of scientific literacy, especially among people who were under served in the education system. There can also be cultural healing traditions that may include a mix of supported and unsupported practices. These factors are often happening all at the same time to people, too. My mother used to be really into alternative medicines and had a combination of being disbelieved/dismissed by doctors, trying to find medical care for herself and her kid while being uninsured and having very little money, and not having the education to understand how conventional medicines work and therefore not trusting them. She eventually became a licensed massage therapist, and in getting that education she learned a little bit about the body and physiology. That very small amount of scientific literacy went a long way to bridging that distrust between her and conventional medicine.

the only essential oil I use is peppermint oil, because it contains menthol, a decongestant. If your headache was caused by stuffed up sinuses, then it would probably help, but probably not any other kind of headache. I like to use it specifically at night when I have a cold, because it's easier to put a few drops on your pillow than to suck a lozenge in your sleep. I think people are attracted to alternative medicine because of either a lack of funds for or a lack of trust in modern medicine. There are a lot of people who have burned relationships with doctors, communities who were exploited for medical research, and people scared that they will pay more than they can afford for something that might not even work for them.
