@@iwill9131 There are a few things he said that make it seem to me like he didn’t realize it, it’s been a couple weeks now since I saw the video so I don’t remember them all, but in particular putting the bra in the freezer. He just said something like “I guess if you’re too hot, that would work?” whereas it’s specifically for breast pain from pregnancy and breastfeeding. I don’t think it would work all that well, but it’s a semi-viable hack (just using cold cabbage leaves or something like that would work better). He is a doctor, but he’s specifically a general practitioner/family medicine doctor, so he’s very well versed in a variety of medicinal information on stuff like sprains, but probably just has a lot of textbook knowledge on pregnancy, because you would usually discuss all those problems with an OBGYN instead of your family medicine doctor. I’ve noticed Doctor Mike will also occasionally not notice obvious details (while seeing specific information other people wouldn’t), I think it’s an endearing trait though. :’)

@@avail2114 I'll add to that that an orthopedist "only" focuses on the muskuloskeletal system when they're treating ankle/foot, whereas a podiatrist takes care of the whole "area" ( skin, nails, nerves, vascular etc.). I'm based in Switzerland, so here things are a little bit different: we are not medical doctors (meaning we can't perform surgeries nor prescribe drugs) so we basically take care of nails/skin ailments (such as calluses or ingrown nails, to give easy examples) and we perform gait analysis and other exams in order to treat "gait disorders" (that's a very broad definition). We make cutomised foot orthoses (insoles) ad well.

Lifting your belly is something pregnant women often have to do to climb stairs, I have kids and honestly I think the scarf is brilliant, much easier then carrying a belly brace or wrap everywhere. Freezing fruit sauce is a popular way to help toddler's with teething.

The double sock is actually legit for some purposes. When you're hiking/rucking long distances it's great for preventing blisters. If sweating becomes an issue you can either change your inner sock or apply foot powder!

[@HappyBeezerStudios]

But it isn't a solution to wholes in socks. If you have another sock to put over it, why not just use that hole free socks instead. And either throw out the broken one, fix the wholes, or use it as a rag.

[@im2randomghgh]

@@HappyBeezerStudios it has nothing to do with holes in socks. It's for alleviating blisters.

[@KelliOlson79]

Dr. Mike, my daughter absolutely loves your videos! She’s thinks you’re fabulous and talks about how you’re a doctor like “mommy’s doctors”. I work with DO students. ♥️ I have a question/favor to ask. I know you’ve mentioned in previous videos how you enjoy when some of your patients (usually the younger ones) know you from your social media. Well there are some horror movie trailers that come up on your video ads occasionally that really freak my kiddo out. I didn’t know if you could set or request age appropriate ads, but figured I would at least mention it. Thanks for your wonderful educational videos, and for bringing a light to our FANTASTIC DO physicians!

[@justsomeguy1275]

The horror ads may be due to search history or other factors, the best way in my opinion is either turn off targeted ads or a trusted ad blocker

[@deebee0225]

I agree, as someone with anxiety he's made my trust in doctors get so much better. He's a wonderful man. Oh and about the ads, he can't choose what ads get played. I believe when uploading a video KZbin checks the video and sees if it's KZbin appropriate and places random ads after that. Cause with old videos you never see old ads. He if could choose they would stay the same for years and years.

[@madison8663]

Maybe have bigger internet restrictions because certain ads come from search history, or things that you watch online

[@CM09575]

Ya, I agree. The scary ads are from what someone is watching. They say Big Brother is always watching. Stuff people search up creates adds. Halloween ads should only be during Halloween.

[@KelliOlson79]

We’ll I’m not sure how because I don’t watch horror anything, so I don’t know why I would get horror movie ads. Nine times out of 10 when I’m watching KZbin my daughter is in the room or could walk in at any moment so I watch things that would be appropriate for her to see. She may not LIKE it but it wouldn’t be bad, even the one time she isn’t nearby, I don’t watch horror videos of any kind.

The one with the “allergy test” is a good idea but you should do it BEFORE you ever use new products. I learned that the hard way when I reacted badly to a new shampoo and my whole head felt like it was on fire. Could’ve been prevented if I just put a little bit on first, which is what I do with everything now 😅😅

[@oceaneo4603]

I feel you. I felt my throat closing after eating a calalou. I don't know how I didn't panick. It's definitely an hard way to find out you're allergic to something. It's not something you forget neither.

[@utej.k.bemsel4777]

A little bit can be just too much! I had an anaphylactic schock from aloe vera, just by putting some on a little burn wound! Nearly died!

[@rtracy1216]

I’m a home occupational therapy practitioner (the ones who go into the home and make accessibility/safety recommendations like the grab bar by the toilet). Glad he co-signs, however I’ve gotta say I absolutely HATE those suction- cup bars and wish they weren’t even produced. They fall off at the slightest provocation and in the event of actual loss of balance, counting on something that lets loose can be more dangerous than trying to get up without any equipment at all.

[@mehere8038]

hmm good point. I use them at a local spa, click them onto the wall, so I can actually stay there, not float off, cause I can't use my legs like others do & they are fantastic for that. There are some other uses I find for them too, for grapping & pulling my wheelchair around, but yeh, I learnt a long time ago, NEVER rely on them in any setting where doing so will result in a fall! I hadn't really thought about standing people using them, REALLY good point though. I do like that they are made, they are useful when used right, but yeh, they probably should have a safety warning or something on them saying they are not suitable for weight bearing. Just their availability probably causes problems with landlords refusing to allow screw in bars too I'm thinking. & btw, I actually like the "dent removers" with just 1 suction cup better for my use, so totally possible to sell them, but as something that doesn't suggest they can be used for weight bearing for vulnerable people, since the ones I buy are from the hardware store for a non-disability purpose anyway ($2.80 for dent remover, $25 for "disability grab rail")

[@rtracy1216]

All your uses and points are excellent! For what your needs are the ways you use them make total sense. Mostly I see people who have had a change in function due to illness, injury or surgery. I recommend FIXED grab bars for most showers to help in stabilizing during transitioning in-out and for stability if standing (although I usually also recommend a shower chair or transfer bench). When families opt for those ones rather than a fixed bar - because it’s specifically meant for weight bearing - it just drives me nuts.

[@rtracy1216]

And also yes, as soon as “accessibility”, “disability”, and sometimes “elderly” is tagged onto an item description the price skyrockets. It’s gross and awful.

[@DrachenGothik666]

It was one like that I saw was the cause of a poor elderly man who was brought into a hospital with a *massive* slash across his back. He'd had it on his bath-tub wall, and it let go as he was either trying to get up or down, and he fell into the door of the tub stall, breaking the glass, shattering it, laying open his poor back into the muscle. Yeah, they suck. They aren't meant to take the weight of a full-grown human.

[@TSIRKLAND]

It can also really depend on the surface. A suction cup relies on a completely smooth, clean, solid, air-tight seal. Glass is best. Very large tiles with a completely flat surface, with a glossy finish is second-best. Any tile with a wavy or bumpy texture, or small tiles with lots of grout lines: will not suction. Whatever kind of wall treatment was on display in that video was definitely NOT suction-cup friendly. Or maybe if you happen to get it to suction *just* enough to hold the weight of the handle itself, any additional weight- such as a person- will break that suction immediately. Suction cups are nice for putting a little stained glass hummingbird in your window, or maybe a toothbrush holder on your mirror. Most phone-holders for cars that rely on suction cups are quite unreliable; maybe they work for a while, then they fall off at the most inopportune moment. I would NOT trust my health to a suction cup, especially if I'm already in a poor health situation where I need the help.

It had to be a deliberate choice on Dr Mike’s part to not acknowledge that most of those were pregnancy hacks lol

[@ArtemensiaK]

As a twin mom I can confirm: Relaxing on a thing, that makes room for the prego belly is very comfortable. I doubt that one can sleep all night like that, but it is very nice. I think the unicorn part is for comical purposes. And I really dislike 5min craft Plus: As a pregnant woman EVERYONE rubs your belly without asking! EVERYONE! I made it a habit to place my whatever before my belly. Very annoying. And just like that, when you are not paying attention for a sec: A hand on your belly. Because obviously pregnant women aren't human anymore, just public property to incubate new humans And the pants hack is dumb: I was pregnant with twins, like I said, and the pants would have slipped, but I wasn't prepared to buy new pants every week or so... So an elastic band and a belly band it was. It worked just fine And many women experience swollen boobs in pregnancy and after and everything that helps is welcome.

[@margaretokrongly2746]

Everyone always talks about the random belly rubs but I've literally never experienced it! Well, once but it was my aunt and we hadn't seen each other for years so that's understandable to me lol. I must just give off a "touch me if you dare" vibe, or maybe I'm not pregnant enough even though I'm 32 weeks lol. Everyone says Im small for 32 weeks but I measure exactly on the dot every doctor visit and nobody asks if I'm pregnant anymore. They just dish out the unsolicited pregnancy advice and recommended lotions like no tomorrow😂

Poor Mike was SO triggered by these “hacks”. I will say that some of them you needed a woman who’s been pregnant to explain it. The lady walking up the stairs was so relatable to me. I had very loose ligaments in pregnancy and lifting my legs was excruciating. Taping my belly or using a brace to help lift some of the weight helped me be able to actually use stairs when I had to. I could see the scarf trick helping if you’d forgotten to wear your belly support brace that day.
