Avi Kaplan says the same thing and I have to agree with this comment. Those who already think they're perfect are extremely flawed people. As someone suffering from DPDR and self-loathing, I don't know what the moderate amount would look like and how it would compare to these two extremes. I never really thought about it but yeah, I suppose my mental health blurs the lines a little bit and I'm forced to see everything in black and white. Kinda sucks.

How is your skin so clear we want a skin care routine.

[@SirRaiuKoren]

My guess would be healthy diet, exercise, and perhaps a lotion and/or exfoliator like a lufa. But also, a good deal of makeup. He looks like he's under some pretty intense lighting, which requires stage makeup to prevent glare. Stage makeup is not the same as conventional makeup, though - it looks obviously fake when not on camera, and is much thicker.

Little bit of mecos will make your skin glow

[@SarahDaraban]

Drink a lot of water! It’s literally the best

[@Ash-85]

There can be so many factors to that sort of thing. Simply moisturizing can make a huge difference, though. Neutrogena's Hydro Boost water gel is fantastic and much more affordable than Sunday Riley's Tidal. Whatever you get, you want something non-comedogenic, which means it won't clog up pores. What cleanser you use can make a difference. Even something labeled for sensitive skin can be harsh. Retinoids are a good baseline, too. Not only do they help with acne, but they are anti-wrinkle products. The downside, which the newly over the counter Differin fails to mention, is to minimize the redness and sensitivity the most, they should be started every other night for 3 - 4 weeks with a super thin layer before going to every night. (Moisturizing both after and 12 hours later.) For women, being on hormone therapy (AKA birth control pills) can help as well. A dermatologist would be able to give you your best answer if you have recurrent issues. Some people need to go beyond the retinoids. They may need benzoyl peroxide or a topical antibiotic such as clindamycin, or all the way up to a very serious drug called isotretinoin. The most difficult part is sticking with the routine because full results can easily take 3 - 4 months.

[@camilleb292]

Wow! Would you be willing to share some of your famourit meals and how to prepare them ☺️

[@idkwtvr4844]

@@camilleb292 One of my favorite dishes is stir-fried tomato and egg. It's pretty simple to make, and there are plenty of recipes online. My family doesn't follow recipes when making it, though, since we are used to just eyeballing everything. Normally, we use a few tomatoes (cut into wedges), a few eggs (beaten and salted to taste), some canola oil, and some sugar if tomatoes are out of season. (I told you we eyeball everything, lol.) We first add the canola oil and cook the tomatoes in a wok, and add the eggs when a lot of juice comes out of the tomatoes. Next, we scramble the eggs and tomatoes. Then, we cook it until it is fully cooked, and we add sugar if the tomatoes are too sour. Finally, we eat it with steamed rice and vegetable dishes. I recommend following a recipe first and then changing the amount of ingredients to your taste. Hope this helped, and happy cooking!

@@jquiznos2283 Plastic surgery is not all cosmetic. In my country, plastic surgeons are also called 'RE surgeons', with RE being 'reconstruction and aesthetics' (it's RE because we drop the 'a' in 'aesthetics'). So what s/he had must've been the reconstruction part. Other reconstruction cases they may do are cleft palates and burn scars, which are big deals. My preceptor in general surgery was mad when we look down upon plastic surgeons and start calling them cosmetic doctors. While I'd argue there are some truths to that stereotype, they also do some procedures that deserve our attention. That being said, as a doctor myself, I'm also quite on the fence about aesthetic medicine.

[@exantiuse497]

It is generally safe to wear a pad overnight. As for chemicals, there are now several brands that make chemical-free organic cotton pads if that is a concern for you. As for menstrual cups, the jury's still out, there have only been two reported cases of TSS linked back to cups and in both cases, they were left in way too long (about a week).

haedes OH and the idea of "cold or absent parenting" causing the condition was disproven in the mid 90's. Also girls do have the condition at the same rate as boys (another misconception that 90's research disproved) it just that they are more likely to present without hyperactivity which is why they were consistently underdiagnosed. Not saying there isn't overdiagnosis in the US - but your "information" is at least 20 years out of date.

Also, probably should have said this on the video it relates too, lol, I also want to be on the 30 under 30 list one day. I was mind blown when I heard your age, based on where you are in your life. But anyways , thanks for the videos.

[@HitomiRulz]

Hello Dr.Mike, recently I have found your channel and love it.. I absolutely 💯 % applaud how you said you take failure better than an unhappy person and felt I needed to comment on that. At the later age of 30 I decided to return to school and further myself and recently finished my local paramedic program. During this time I attended the program, I had to learn to be okay with being wrong and to have to "eat it and learn from it" instead of focusing on a failure or not being 100% right with a treatment or catching everything in assessments. I see some people still thinking that your still a perfect person and just hope they see they could improve themselves more with acceptance of failure and growth from it and some self love for flaws. Very healthy perspective you have on many topics- keep up the amazing work! Cheers ^_^

Aww I was really hoping I would see my question this time😢. I’ll try again. During medical school did you meet any students that were previously nurses? If so, how do you think they faired in med school? Also do you personally think is realistic to go to med school after becoming a nurse?

[@Hanniekinz]

Genuinely interested in this question. Sometimes Dr. Mike sees my comments, so maybe if I comment here, he'll answer it lmao!

[@alessandra_alma]

My mom is a nurse and she knows a few people who went to med school to become chiropractors. One opened her own practice and another decided to work for the prisons. To my understanding, they faired pretty well in medical school. They main difference is that they had more hands on experience in the medical field than their counterparts. I see more nurses going the nurse practitioner route. They are able to make diagnosis and prescribe medications. They are under a physician usually but I’ve been seeing more and more nurse practitioners and physician assistants. I hope that helps.

[@meganarey6883]

I absolutely love what you said regarding the comment about you being perfect. I think that your response shows what it is that the viewer might see as "perfect" and that's the fact that you're a well rounded, intelligent, humble (but also nice looking and successful) guy with humility and humor, etc. More often than not, those things don't all come together. That's why, for some of us, it's easy to say that you seem 'perfect'. I would say something more along the lines of, you're a wonderful example of how men should be. Even hearing your comments about how men should treat women (when you did a Grey's review) is refreshing. It shows that the men that are portrayed on television, whether good or bad are admired and having someone who appears to genuinely be a good man, point that out is something that we need more of, especially this day & age. Thank you for everything that you do. You have a way to make something important entertaining as well. For someone like me, (who has been in the medical field for 15 years) the medicine is enough, but for others, that entertainment factor could open their minds up to something positive that they might not have considered otherwise. From a parental standpoint, I can say that the world definitely needs more of that. I'd much rather have my kids follow someone like you that can teach them important, educational things about many different topics (that they Need to know and that will benefit them) than all of the 'entertaining' nonsense that they have on social media these days that teaches them the opposite of what they need to know. I appreciate you and am grateful for the information that you provide.

My nanny had gall stones, not too severe. She was in excruciating pain so we called up for a doctor and he hospitalized my nanny and since we were on a vacation we had to go back in a week or so my mom told the doctor to subside the pain but considering the fact that she was in the hospital for 4 days and they still couldn't subside the pain and we were putting pressure on the doctor looking at her agonizing state of mind it was causing a very hard time for us looking at her and doing nothing so the doctor ordered some medicines for her and we just bought them and gave it to the doctor and my nani was a person who had undergone open heart surgery with major blockages and right at the moment they were like "we are gonna inject 50 mg of morphine into her" AND GUESS WHAT WITHIN 10MINS. SHE DIED. Now that I'm studying medicine I understand how wrongly my nanny was treated and so many things were wrong with their way of treating my nanny. I take pride in the fact that good doctors like you are trying to educate people *I wish I had that privilege when I was younger maybe my nanny would not have died.*

Please comment on anti aging cream Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty. I find it incredulous that celebrities create cosmetics and makeup, make serious claims to its purpose. Many times even though their name is on the face of the company, they have no real input in its production. In Cindy's case it seems that she has had research and development strategy from the get go from when she started the company. But there's claims all over the internet that don't support the results. I want to know if what I want to buy it's something that will harm me or something that made does not work. I'm smart enough to know that no matter what the formula of a lotion is it's not a miracle and results vary. Comments, Dr? www.meaningfulbeauty.com

Sir. I thought you might appreciate this since I understand you have Russian heritage and are a medical man. I went into hospital last week for a nephrostomy and antegrade ureteric stent (for hydronephrosis and hydroureter of urostomy) When I was in the radiology department the consultant asked what sort of music I like. I said "Rachmaninoff Sir" so he went away and downloaded SVR's symphony No1 in D minor Op 13 to play during the procedure. I have heard of people being put on the rack but this was the first time I have heard of Rach being put on for a person! Sorry! Weak joke but nevertheless it is true and took my mind off what he was doing behind my back.

[@kitsulu8576]

I've had to get a ureteric stent and Lythotripsy twice for stones, the first time was pretty painless... however the second time the stent had moved inside me and I had to keep it like that for a month, never been in more pain in my life (it was borderline suicidal pain) and I've passed a 10mm stone. I currently have three large Stones so I'm going to need to have the surgery again so that's exciting. How was your pain with the stent?

[@georgealderson4424]

@@kitsulu8576 It was a bit sore when they first put it in (I was expecting to have an anaesthetic but I was not given one!) Anyway I do not have any problems with it at the moment. I have to go back to hospital in January to have it changed and this time they have promised to give me an anaesthetic so I should have a sleep!

[@sleepykat9]

Yes it can so be careful. As someone who also struggles with anxiety to the point where my heart rhythms is really offbeat which also causes my low blood pressure. some things that help me is trying to break down what causes me to feel anxious and are these feelings really rational or irrational and from their resolve that with a solution and from their I feel better Also doing proper breathing exercises helps or working out the body in general. I always feel better when I'm with nature. Furthermore socializing with people and talking to your closest family/friend about how you're feeling can help too. Sometimes all you need is someone to listen to your problems. And lastly Valerian root is something I recommend as well it helps with people who deal with insomnia and anxiety. I know anxiety isn't the same for everyone and what I mentioned might not be the solution for you but I hope this helps and remember to breathe inhale and exhale

[@LouisKing995]

40dougherty It may cause a slight decrease in grip strength if you do it a tonne. But that’s it.

[@Victoria-ob3dy]

Dr. Mike has already spoken about that. There is no correlation between cracking your knuckles and getting arthritis. There is living proof of that as a doctor has cracked his knuckles for fifty years yet has not shown any signs of arthritis (I forgot his name). The cracking sound that you hear is just the release of nitrogen air bubbles(?) being released from your joints - something along the lines of that.

[@theglasswolf3206]

40dougherty-When me and my friend were six, every time we met at school we’d always crack our knuckles (Idk why). Then one day my mum told me it caused arthritis so I stopped doing it. I didn’t and still don’t know if it’s true.
