Come see me on tour:
I can't believe we've already hit our 20th episode of Doctor Reacts To Medical Memes. I love reacting to these memes and I'm always so happy that we continue to find new ones that allow for some education to come along with the laughs. Today we talk about botox, pregnancy, baby food, caffeine, carpal tunnel syndrome, staff and PPE shortages, circadian rhythms, doing surgery outside like The Simpsons, insulin, tanning beds, skin cancer, nasal congestion, cramming for tests in med school, biochemistry, study tips, big pharma, oxytocin, bee allergies, epipens, cold medicine, night shifts, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, hearing aids, and as always... CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS CHEST COMPRESSIONS.
I LOVE reading your comments and take your suggestions seriously. If there’s a subject you want me to discuss or something you’d like for me to react to, leave a comment down below. Many of my videos have been born out of suggestions directly from you, so don’t hold back!

[@DembaiVT]

To be fair that's all a general practitioner really needs to know it's only people have extremely rare genetic conditions who have any interruption in that flow so you really just need to know what goes in and what comes out, and if you lack the output, it's that is the name of the cycle you look up to start testing.

2:26 I have actually heard somewhere that you always have one nostril that's "fully in use" while the other is used less but which one it is switches through the day.

[@starlalilymoon]

2:54 My old chemistry teacher used to say something along the lines of: "From the moment someone knows the risks/consequences of doing something bad/unhealthy/dangerous, it is their choice to still do that thing. The real problem is when someone doesn't know the risks/consequences and still does the thing."

[@CaTastrophy427]

I'd like to somehow fit in something about who all is affected by those consequences/risks. There's a difference between jumping off a bridge by yourself and pulling someone down with you.

[@IceMetalPunk]

[@alexia3552]

Harm reduction is all about thorough info. We can't control people but we can make sure they have all the info to make an informed decision

[@CaTastrophy427]

​@@IceMetalPunk They know, they do it anyway. Regardless of the reason, they were informed of the risks and chose to ignore said information. That's on them. If someone is going go-karting, they are informed of the risk of crashing causing injuries before they begin. If they choose to continue and go onto the track, it doesn't matter if they decided it's a risk worth taking for the sake of fun (as most do) or if they believed it's not a real risk, either way, if they crash, that's on them... assuming the method and phrasing of that risk informance was sufficient. Saying "there's always a risk you'd crash and die you know" is greatly different to saying "X% of people who get into a go-kart end up crashing, and Y% of those end up with a broken bone or worse, with Z% being permanently injured or dead"

[@20EsOfficial]

[@MJheartly]

It's somewhat reassuring to hear "one of my nostrils usually doesn't work" from a doctor because one of mine is also that way. It always feels narrower than the other and I've often wondered if I have a deviated septum.

[@OTGamer95]

I have the same thing happen to me whenever I go to sleep, but the problem is that it always moves to whatever side I’m sleeping on. For example, it’ll often start in my right nostril, so I’ll try falling asleep on my left side. Then a few minutes later, my left nostril gets clogged/stuffy, so I go back to my right side. It’s an endless cycle until I fall asleep.

[@k1ngkaos252]

It's because it is normal. Humans only breathe out of one nostril at a time

[@MJheartly]

​@@k1ngkaos252 we never said it wasn't normal?? We're just remarking on our experiences. Also, what you've brought up has to do with the cycle of breathing. While that may very well be true, a deviated septum is another issue entirely. A deviated septum affects the amount of air that gets through a nostril, not which nostril(s) you breathe through. For some people that means side sleeping, mouth breathing, snoring, and common stuffy noses. Not necessarily all "normal" issues in this context.

From one bespectacled person to the other: bend your nose clip better. What you want to do (with disinfected hands of course) is to bend the top of the nose clip into a round shape with your thumb before putting the mask on. When you take a fresh mask out of the pack, that part is bent in a way too sharp angle. Bend your nose clip so it looks kinda like the curve of the normal distribution before you put it on and it's going to be much better. If you don't pre-bend, the fit is never really tight because just pressing the clip to your nose doesn't work as well as actively pre bending it with your hands.

I think his editor does all the work, and they sit for like 45min to do the takes for the video, and that is it. So, I don't think it is that hard to keep up with youtube videos with someone editing and creating your video ideas.

2:15 Is actually a natural thing to happen. One of your nostrils always has a slightly worse flow than the other, and it switches sides every few hours. The reason is there are certain smell particles which need a bit longer on the receptors to be registered, and there are ones which need only whizz by, and they will create a signal instantly. If you have a very fast airflow, you are skipping the slow particles, and if you are going too slowly, you might risk suffocation, so you have both at the same time, but not always at the same place.

[@HighHolyOne]

I find that if I sleep on my right side, my left nostril clears. If I sleep on my left side, my right nostril clears. However since I had surgery for an inverted papilloma, both nostrils are absolutely fantastic.

With microphones, the proximity effect causes a bass boost the closer you are to them. Now consider your ears are really close to your mouth and larynx, but around a corner so they get the bass through you but don't get the treble as much.

Fun fact: the “dominant” nostril changes about every 3 to 6 hours so one is always less "activate" than the other. :) (If I remember this correctly.) Not sure what this is called, but it’s a thing. Edit: It's every 3 to 6 hours as someone pointed out, not 8 minutes as I sloppily recalled.
