2) How to improve posture?
3) Why is my red meat video offline?
4) Am I Doing too many Bicep Curls?
5) Why do I have sensitive skin during an illness?
6) Why does my lower rib pop?

Exactly true. After seeing Ed Sheeran live concert videos for a couple of weeks, i felt like becoming a music artist like him. The way he controls his loop pedal n audience is just mesmerizing and it looks all easy but there's a lot more to put in. And my thoughts get easily influenced because it only took a week of science videos which led my thoughts to become an engineer. And now I'm here, watching Dr. Mikhail's videos, and he's influencing(or encouraging) me to become a doctor. I have a very moody and wavering mind. I really don't know how to get my mind under control. Idk if it's because I'm in my teenage or whether i have some mental issues.

[@MarleenSophie]

To the girl who wants to become a paramedic: When I finished school I went straight to university and began to study law (school and university system is a little different in Germany compared to the US), then switched to International Business Studies but still wasn't happy with it, in fact, I could not have been more unhappy. So I sat down and really thought about what I want for myself and what I expect my life to be like and so decided to quit university and become a paramedic because it felt like the right thing for me. It was the absolute BEST decision I could have made for myself because I absolutely love this job with all my heart. Is it hard sometimes? Yes. Do you see things sometimes that could be traumatizing if not dealt with properly? Definetly. But as Dr. Mike already said, it is also highly rewarding and you'll have a lot of positive experiences as well. So if you feel like this is THE thing to do for you, just go for it and do not let anyone tell you something else!

I just want to share, my breast reduction changed my life. I went from a 36G (had to special order my bras) to a 34DD- my doctor removed half of my breast mass. I used to have back and neck pain daily, couldn’t sleep without a bra (painful!), couldn’t find clothing that fit my disproportionate body, and would receive gross remarks from male strangers. When I got my reduction at 21, every on of these things changed, it was like I was finally able to be myself. I am still busty, but I don’t have any more pain and my breasts aren’t the first thing you notice about me. I just wanted to share in case anyone else is considering the procedure, BEST THING I EVER DID!

[@Princess_Cheese]

Same, I wore a 44 G and had to drive an hour away just to find a bra that fit me. I went down to a C and I would never go back

[@bradhartliep879]

never be afraid to reduce your breast size, ladies, especially if it's causing pain or preventing you from clapping .. I personally find a b or a barely c - cup to be the most pleasing to look at on most women, but also know that sometimes larger breasts come from natural growth - it's all about proportion - smaller breasts on petite women and slightly larger breasts on average-sized women with normal body fat .. you don't need to be an 80 lb "zero waist" boney skeleton runway walker and I'm not a fan of the "top heavy" look - I get turned off by implants, especially of they're "too large" for your body and make you look like a flotation device .. a little cleavage and a nice little pair of a melon balls is all that's needed to attract most men .. your face and your smile are far more important than the size of your titantic honkers ..

[@h34rt1lly]

we had very similar experiences! i went from 36G to 36DD but I’ve been really focusing on working out & changing my diet, and have lost another 3” so far. My goal size was a C, and we just couldn’t make it happen through the op alone - even then, it was already so life changing. I can workout in comfort now, sleep on my back, no more upper back or trap pains. I feel so much less dysphoria in clothing and can actually look in the mirror now and feel more like myself 😭

The period question reminds me of when I was 8 or 9 years old and I started feeling lumps on my chest, that felt like wine corks. My mom and dad both felt my chest and didn’t know what it was. My mom took me to a gynecologyst and she explained that that was what growing breast tissue felt like and that it was a normal part of development. I guess most people din’t touch their breast at that age because I have yet to hear anything like this, but I’m glad that my parents took me to a medical professional and all of us were comforted that it wasn’t a disease or something.

Please speak out on Endo and PCOS! A lot of women suffer and its not as talked about as it should be. I went undiagnosed and misdiagnosed for years because I wasnt told about the signs and symptoms. I thought it was normal or not that serious.

[@TheWaterMinx]

You're so right! It took more than 15 years from my first doctor's visit about my unusual cycle symptoms for them to properly diagnose me with both PCOS and Endometriosis... that's a lot of years of pain and confusion! I had a miscarriage that could have been avoided if I had known I needed progesterone supplementation. I went through excruciating pain regularly and thought I was just wimpier than most women to dare to complain. I was literally told "all women experience discomfort... just take an Advil!" and that "Some women just have irregular cycles, there's no need to worry". It took 8 different doctors and more than 15 years before someone finally ordered an ultrasound to check and see if anything was wrong.

I hope i get my breast reduction surgery soon..thank you doctor mike for saying we shouldn't have to lie to ourselves and tell our selves our bodies are beautiful when we know we're lying,thank you so much..

[@agneshidvegi5772]

I can't give you advice for surgery, but I hope these tips will help in the short time: For sports try wearing a normal everyday bra (without padding and without wires in them) and on top of it a sport bra. The two different kind will help a lot in sports. The normal type will hold the weight, and the sport bra will not allow that much bounce. Additionally try wearing sport bra in a smaller size too, it will help reducing the bounce too. Wear it this way if you do more jumpy things, however do not wear double bra this way for too long or outside of sports, because after a while (for me two-three hours) it becomes very uncomfortable and the breasts can become kind of painful. But my back likes it much better :) Outside of sports: try to find some extra comfortable bras for wearing at home, even for some nights - tipically night bra wearing is not recommended, but it can help for the back pain. E.g. there are bras for breast feeding which are comfortable enough for night wear (not all of them are!), if you can find some. The important thing is that these bras should be without any wire or boning. Lasly you should start some back strengthening excercises, they will help a lot in time.

[@joywebster2678]

Work hard on both weight loss and muscle toning. Back shoulder muscles hold up the large breasts and need strength. The fat in your breasts will reduce somewhat with weight loss, and then when you get your breast reduction the extra skin and fat goes away. As a nurse I've seen young women get reductions but then after it's their fat belly that sticks way out. So as someone who has always had a large chest, I've told myself my belly has to be small enough before I'll get the breast reduction. So keep working on yourself.

[@jeanettegrottick2560]

I feel your pain I went from a B Cup to a D cup when I was 12. It was brutal. I can tell you at 17 I went to my doctor because I hit DD and I was done. He advised girls can grow until they are 21.

My friend had the same complaint of rib popping and one day she woke up and her lung collapsed. Turns out she has a genetic condition that causes “bleps” to form in her lungs. The popping was actually the bleps (basically a blister) popping. This one was so bad that it blew a hole in the top of her lung and subsequently she had the top portion of her lung removed and was in the hospital for a week. Soooo go to the doctor!!

[@lisayarnell474]

Destiny Reidel this terrifies me. I went to the ER for a “popping rib” cause it really hurt and they just felt around me for a moment, prescribed me some ibuprofen, and said I would be fine. Just said my organs were swollen but had no answer as to why. Took 2 weeks of being in pain and constant popping before it went away. It’s been a long time since then but it has happened since a couple times. What tests did they run to see what the popping was for your friend?

[@destinyreidel]

She was admitted to the ER with a collapsed lung (shortness of breath and pain) they tried to slowly inflate the lung and when it wouldn’t hold I think they assumed at that point it was the bleps. They had to do surgery to fix the hole in the top of her lung and when they did there diagnosis was confirmed. The doctor said it’s moderately common and there’s nothing she could have done to prevent it except maybe not smoking and knowing your family history since its usually genetic. My friend is adopted so she had no idea and she was a smoker before this. I wouldn’t worry too much, from what I’ve read it’s mostly dangerous to the elderly and the very young due to the lung collapsing and not being able to get to help.

I remember when I went for my breast reduction consultation. The back and neck pains were almost unbearable. As soon as the surgeon walked in, saw my boobs and saw how tiny the rest of my body was he agreed to do the surgery. I went down 6 bra sizes

[@bittersweet728]

Can i ask what size u were? Im not being cocky but I'm a size 3-5 in jeans with 34 ddd breast. I can't shave my legs in a normal way. I bend to shave then come back up and so on and so on. My back hurts so bad. So my question is what was the price?

[@marjanihoward5393]

Amber Gibbons I was a G cup and went down to a C cup. Insurance covers breast reduction surgery because it’s not considered cosmetic.

[@bittersweet728]

@@marjanihoward5393 oh see I didn't think it was covered. I'm in Jersey so Im not sure. Is my size big enough to get one?

[@marjanihoward5393]

Amber Gibbons if I remember correctly, it’s mandatory for you to go down minimum 2 or 3 cup sizes. If you’re a triple D you’ll have to go down to a C.

My lower rips can actually move and pop/click back and forth if I move my hands under my ribs (because I can do that) and shift them. It moves painlessly so I’m not sure what it is?? Or if it’s normal?
