Daniels's injury was scary. The way he went limp and just laid there is always a terrifying scenario to watch play out.

Indeed. When someone goes limp like that, a fractured neck is the biggest fear. Thank god it was just a bruised spinal cord and nothing worse…

[@sarahmoellenberg]

I appreciate you taking the time to explain the injuries in a way that doesn’t minimize them. It seems like there’s a tendency in sport to downplay injury and have people return before the body has had enough time to fully recover.

It's popular in a lot of sports to go through the pain and a strong mind will overcome it. Soooo stupid ! 🤦🏽‍♀️

@@oceaneo4603 agreed. Back when I was pretty seriously training in ballet to an extent there was a similar mentality which was not great but may explain some of the long-term issues I experience now.

[@TheMrCC21]

Former NHLer Paul Kariya was in the 2003 Stanley Cup Finals when he was on the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. They were up against the New Jersey Devils. Scott Stevens laid out Kariya with a hit to the head. Kariya went off for two shifts, came back, and scored an iconic goal. Aside from the fact that he shouldn't have returned, the scary thing is he doesn't remember any of it. It was Sidney Crosby's concussion that changed the course of the NHL and how they deal with concussions. We've come along way with dealing with concussions and head injuries in sports.

[@spdcrzy]

So regarding your question about ankle/foot injuries: A lot of players, Steph and Lebron included, have found that having too MUCH heel and ankle support actually causes more stress and torque to be imparted to the knees as as a result, actually causing MORE injuries. They found that by reducing the height, they were able to train for both better mobility AND ankle strength, allowing them to make their legs stronger overall without overworking their knees.

To answer his question at 3:31 NBA players do in fact jam their fingers very often. However, this happens so often that they usually can play through it. If the jam is a little worse, players will play through, then when the coach takes them out to rest, will have their fingers wrapped. You see this all the time, especially on players that dunk a lot and with a lot of force, like Jaylen Brown on the Boston Celtics. He constantly has his right middle and ring finger wrapped together from dunking.

Hey I just wanted to point out that spasms can happen with severe dehydration due to the shift of electrolytes and/or cellular fluid. I've seen that already. Sure, normally just a leg spasms, but dehydration combined with a dazed feeling, it could look like an epileptic episode. Could also be a stroke of course, but just from this segment of the video, it is a bit of a long shot to form a diagnose.

[@NellFace]

It's also possible that he has a medical condition that he didn't want publicly disclosed. So I think he had a seizure brought on by dehydration, and he's very aware of his epilepsy (or other disorder.)

[@vulpesaustralis1452]

Dehydration can also cause people to faint (I think due to low blood pressure) and people often convulse during a fainting spell. Not saying that's definitely what happened here, but certainly plausible.

I still want Dr. Mike to react to ballet, weither it be injuries or just what dancers put our bodies through to make art. (Ballet is the hardest sport in the world) Great video Dr. Mike!

[@requiemforameme1]

It’s different from sport to sport, but teams are usually tentative about declaring injuries because it’s a whole process. Players are usually updated on the team’s injury report, which usually comes after consult with the team’s medical staff. So there’s no need to immediately diagnose, since the press and fans would run with it immediately before knowing the impact to the team.

Dr. Mike could you please make a video about eating disorders or how mental challenges can affect that. You could debunk myths? It would mean a lot and I think, obviously you know way more than me about this but, i think it would help a lot of people. I’ve struggled with this and continue to. Thank you for being a great doctor, doctor, and voice.

Some of your videos like this make me not want to play Soccer Football or Basketball

[@Greenbean_W123]

I know right

[@Fatimah-cs5co]

I know you are being flooded with these comments on IG, but I wanted to post this on YT as well because I love your videos and really appreciated everything I have learned from you. Please read! I think many of us were surprised by your recent story because you have always branded yourself as a person that wants to help people and wants to be balanced in your approach with others. By posting the flag to your story, you were not balanced especially since you have never posted anything about the conflict before (at least not to my knowledge) and surely never posted anything supporting Palestine. All of this has led many to believe that you support the Israeli government and their treatment of Palestine. You have also been silent about the violence the Palestinian people have consistently faced by the Israeli government. Most of us probably assumed you didn't want to pick a side or even reference the conflict out of not wanting to be divisive. Especially based on your beautiful video on Ukraine. If you would say anything about the conflict, I would've thought it would be for peace. We understood. But now, we don't understand at all. It hurts to see the lack of support for Palestine especially since they are an incredibly vulnerable population with less money, resources, and power socio-politically. There is very little public support for Palestine because most people are too afraid to disagree with Israel, no one wants to be called anti-Semitic for not standing with Israel. But there is no consequence for not standing with Palestine, so once again Palestine has the disadvantage. I really hope you at least make it clear that all you want is peace between the people, and make efforts to balance your platform. I also hope the people that love you and have supported your channel will also give you the courtesy of awaiting a response and not pass too harsh a judgment without more info. Too often on social media we don't give people the benefit of the doubt and we make A LOT of assumptions. Thank you if you read through this! I hope peace comes for both lands.

Seriously, wondering if it’s a situation where his Instagram was hacked? Don’t let it be true Doctor Mike. Please stand with Palestine lives 🇵🇸

this is the video that made me look into my neck and trap pain, i have a extremely lax shoulder, constantly dislocating and not enough stability muscles, Thanks dr mike! i never would have guessed!!

[@saju7295]

For someone who practices a high ethical standard. Your morals and stance on the Isreali "suffering", shows just how anyone, even as someone as intelligent as Dr Mike can be so blind to the truth. Why the sudden interest and support for Israel? When this has been happening to Palestine for decades! I know where I stand and who to support and its definitely not by following people like you. I suggest everyone who supports Palestine and wants to show their love to this beautiful country by unfollowing these content creators as they clearly only have one goal and that goal is very similiar to the zionists. 🇵🇸 FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

Dr. Mike coming back with another banger on my bday too

[@ryankarlsen4588]

hey doctor mike, can we do hockey injuries next? love the content. To help with research here are a few of the brutal ones, fortunately no deaths, although I would imagine monetization will be gone for this one. I'm not trying to tell you who or what topics to cover, I'm just trying to aid in research in the possible event you cover this topic. Again love the content, keep it up. Clint Malarchuck - neck laceration Richard Zednick - neck laceration John Tavares - concussion 2021 Max Pacioretty - concussion 2011 Conner McDavid - PCL 2019 Marc Staal - puck to the face 2013 Gregory Campbell - Broken Fibula 2013 Johnny Boychuk - Eye 2020 Rich Perverly - cardiac 2014

Free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 Unfortunately Mike didn’t think Palestinians matter enough for him to stand with them or mention how they’re being by murdered.

are you talking about actual gaza strip citizens or hamas

[@PatrickMcCawFitnessOfficial]

7:30 And McCaw STILL WON THE CHAMPIONSHIP after being waived from the Cavs due to the injury, making his 3rd straight. Truly the GOAT

[@TheeVande]

I'd love an NHL video! Clint Malarchuk getting his throat cut (Richard Zednik if tons of blood would hinder the video), Paul Kariya getting a severe concussion but kept playing and scored but has no memory of it now, Chris Pronger's commotio cordis, Jay Bouwmeester's cardiac arrest, of course getting hit with a slapshot, would all be cool to see!

[@strker142]

[@thatdude___]
