TikToks That Scare Me As A Doctor

[@darthplagueis13]

As someone whose dad is a veterinarian, "horses are the healthiest animal" absolutely cracks me up. We are talking about an animal that loves to eat oats, will immediately overdose on oats if it is allowed to eat as much as it wants, and will fall miserably ill and possibly even die if it overdoses on oats. Horses are infamous for catching a colic if the wrong kind of plant even so much as looked at their food, and for also dying from colic. Perks of being an animal that famously cannot vomit, I guess. It feels like there's a thousand different diseases that can kill a horse and 990 of them are various forms of indigestion. Fact of the matter is, horses were an incredibly unlikely animal to be domesticated. They are built to spend their life in large herds roaming across wide plains and meadows, and the way they live in captivity is basically the opposite of their natural way of life and as a result of this, if they eat anything wrong or they get stressed or anything else isn't optimal, their bodies are basically hardwired to pick "get absolutely miserable and maybe also die" as the preferred reaction.

@@Cashhhhew I'm just tossing this guess out there off the top of my head, but I feel like way back before vet medicine got more sophisticated, if anything went even slightly wrong with a horse, you'd just euthanize it. So people had this survivorship bias that all horses were extremely healthy, because they never saw an unhealthy horse, because any horses that became unhealthy would die so quickly. Alternatively, it started out as a joke but as people became less rural, they didn't realize that horses are not healthy and took it at face value.

A lot of conspiracy theorists latch on to conspiracies as a way of making the random arbitrariness of life seem less random and arbitrary. It is possible that he did have someone in his life who had cancer but rather than accept that bad stuff happens that we don't have any control over, his method of coping was to decide that he does have control over it because all the doctors were wrong and only he knows how to fix it. A lot of health and religious movements start like that, especially in the 1800s. Someone with chronic health problems that aren't treatable by modern medicine comes up with some nonsense miracle cure that they think makes them feel better, then founds their own clinic selling their cure to other people.

Because it isn't true? Cancer is the failure of several suicide / shutoff genes in combination with rapid cell division. The only way it can relate to toxins is when those toxins produce DNA damage.

There is now a machine I’ve seen that basically takes an ultrasound of the area of an arm/body where the IV needs to be put, then it projects the image very accurately onto the patients body so that not only can we feel the vein, but we can see it. It tells you the best place to insert the cannula/the most patent positions. I would NEVER trust a machine to put the IVC in, it cannot take into account the patients comfort/pain/movement.

Regarding ads reporting huge lists of side effects for medications: I read an article that said that these companies are legally required to report ALL/ANY symptoms reported by test subjects. So if ONE person during the clinical trials had diarrhea at any point during the study, they are legally required to include it as a “possible side effect.” Even though they probably only had diarrhea because of the Taco Bell they ate the night before.

[@Quarrenn17]

Yes, because if they don’t and someone has it while taking the medication they can sue them over it. It’s pretty dumb and creates undo anxiety for everyone else, but sadly in our society they have to do it. This is why we see so many medications with “death” listed as a side-effect. If someone just happened to die during its use, even if it had no connection to the medication at all, they still have to put it down.

[@sci300768]

Do NOT draw the ire of Corvids. They will teach their children to hate you as well! And keep teaching future generations... Like, there was this study that some researchers did with masks and did negative stuff to the crows. Those original crows taught their kids to hate the researchers.

[@zoyadulzura7490]

I saw a crow hanging out with a hawk yesterday. I thought maybe they were just sharing a meal, but I saw none. This doesn't really relate to a discussion on crow intelligence, but I thought it was cute.

[@zoyadulzura7490]

I remember seeing a story in the news at some point about a girl who would feed crows, and at some point they started leaving little shiny trinkets for her as gifts. She ended up with a box full of gifts from them. A gift from a crow, no matter what is might be, is something I'd treasure.

[@WarbearPrime]

Something interesting, I live in Australia and had surgery this morning to yank out a decent sized lypoma out of my right shoulder. The number of medical staff including theater staff, wearing Crocs was higher than 50%. I noted something similar when I had surgery at the ends of December last year too. Different hospital, different team(s).

Hi Dr Mike, I had a UTI a few years ago and took a extract of cranberry powder in water every day. As well as drank cranberry juice and it helped me a lot. I even skipped a few days and found that the symptoms got worse. Obviously that’s just what worked for me of course👍🏼

[@loggicc5465]

i recently had a uti and had a similar experience. the burn was so bad and i found out that cranberry juice helps, i don't think cranberry juice cures a uti but im rlly certain that it helps ease the symptoms like burning and stuf

[@bryanbruggeman8357]

0:35 He got kind of scared when he started approaching the apples lmao... Are doctors really that affraid of apples

[@Skitty235]

8:35 very ironic that I just did my chapter on cancer cells in bio but it's also VERY ironic that he's saying that the cancer doesn't spread.... like babe do you wanna know what metastasis is?

[@virgofairy88]

The lamb chop clip made me chuckle. I can picture Bear destroying toys-he’s too cute. One of my two standard schnauzers loves ripping apart his toys and within a week of getting his first lamb chop, he ripped out all the squeakers and stuffing and tried to shred the squeakers. He has been much nicer to his Easter bunny lamb chop.

"Horses are the healthiest animal" half my knowledge about horses is from jokes about how fragile they are. what universe are these people from?

[@ellib467]

I think they are referencing the old saying “healthy as a horse”. Definitely a fragile animal though.

Dr. Mike trying to diagnose the CGI was so precious!

[@rafertieslorekeeper5771]

I saw this on last night actually. I wanted him to add on the Cranberry juice a disclaimer "If you're NOT on medications that say to avoid it." I'm on one of them, and I can so imagine someone not knowing or paying attention and getting hurt.

[@jakepullman4914]

Grapefruit juice is worse. It interacts with so many medications I wonder if it's just safer for no one to eat them.

[@Muffinzeshlongun]

Your doctor seems like a fun guy... I'll see myself out

[@kristimarie9523]

I teach a Dental Assistant class and I can not stress enough the dangers of crocs.. my heavens the amount of injuries that have occurred with instruments stabbing individuals in the foot.

[@JaneyLuWhipxach]

I saw an ad for a medication that helps you sleep and on the list of side effects was ' trouble sleeping'. What? Love your videos Doctor Mike!

[@chronically_kyra]

That reminds me of antidepressants, because common side effects include worsening depression and s*icidal thoughts

[@BirchMonkey857]

The sad fact is, because medical care can be so expensive in the US, a lot of people feel pressured into trying a cheaper option that may not work.

[@zoyadulzura7490]

Yup. The U.S. needs a system so that money is never a barrier to treatment.

[@lenastorm6280]

6:29: This reminds me of a "doctor" I once visited. My mother is suuuuper esoterical (you know, with "healing crystals", and chakras, "negative engeries", „angel-oracle-cards“ and bs like that) and she also doesn't accept, that I don't belive in that. When I was 17 she forced me to go to a "doctor", who (no joke) just looked at me, with his normal, human eyes, and said, that I have a dangerous fungus growing in my stomage, that survives of of sugar and that I am from here on forbidden from eating ANY sugar. (No, I'm not diabetic and I have zero allergies or diet restrictions) Including fructose, wich is in fruites and veggies, so he basicaly wanted me to stop eating any veggies or fruite. Of course I disobeyed, because I love fruites and veggies and I'm not dumb enough to get scurvy or something. -.- And he "knew" that I had this fungus from just looking at me. He didn't do an x-ray or an ultrasound or take any blood/saliva/urin/etc.-samples or use a stethoscope or did anything that would actually help him look into my body. Edit: Sorry for my bad english.

The doctor you describe should not even be called a doctor when she/he is clearly a quack.

hello doctor mike! i have been watching your channel for 3+ years and as a teenager you have taught me so much. you even made me become the person i am today. i am more interested than ever in medicine, and the thought of it makes me really happy. words cant put into how much i wanna thank you for everything. you have amazing humor and a great personality, theres never a dull moment with you around. you have truly changed the world for the best. i never got to say how much i appreciate you since i always forget to because of your amazing videos. i hope you continue being awesome, good luck on your journey! love from greece❤

[@tazzyanderson1192]

1:00 Whenever I give a friend cranberry juice or see them drinking it I always say it's good for your uterus, whether male or female. My friends are used to me not shying away from medical terminology or facts and take the jokes well, but one time I was saying goodbye to my male friend through a gate. I said cranberry juice is good for his uterus and a female jogger happened to jog by and burst out laughing. She was in no way breathless before, but after she heard me she could barely breathe. I like to think I made her day and gave her a nice ab workout. 😊

[@sedawxk5093]

The “inexperienced professional” got me 😂

[@Upstaged07]

I don't know about the IV machine. I once had a nursing student stick a needle completely THROUGH my vein. She and a nurse were standing outside my room at the ER and I heard the nurse trying to psych her up "Just be confident. Go in there and say Hi, I'm here to start your IV". I was praying they were not actually coming in to MY room. Unfortunately they did. I should also mention that I had a kidney stone at the time and I was already writhing in agony. Which I forgot about momentarily when she skewered my arm. 😫Most experienced nurses have trouble finding a vein on me! Why they thought it would be a good idea to let this girl practice on someone with no visible arm veins and in very obvious horrific pain is beyond me. I would 100% choose the machine! 😂

[@jakepullman4914]

My main concern is, if the machine misses or starts hurting you, does it understand to stop? If I saw this in a clinic, though, I'd give it a shot. Or... it would give me one.

[@Freeyourself206]

Going through a vein is not that big of a deal, when looking for a vein, we are trained to do it by touch not by sight. The fact you have no visible veins is not a big deal at all as they feel for a vein. You can feel veins deep down that can’t be seen. Truly, none of that is a big deal at all.

[@kevinbarnard355]

For future reference, it's PERFECTLY acceptable to tell a nurse or nursing assistant that you'd prefer someone with more experience to do the procedure. You can expound on it if you like, but learning by doing still involves consent. When you know you have a history of experienced professionals having a hard time doing something, you or your advocate should ask for the veteran.

Mike: “try and spell abscess right now I dare you” The subtitles: “I got you bro😎”

Abscess 😅😂❤ I’m in medical school to become a medical assistant a phlebotomist and a EKG Tech. Learning ALL of the medical terminology and brand new words is like learning a new language!!!😅

[@drm.himself]

He's probably getting punched on the buttocks.

[@galaxyanimal]

It doesn't actually look like he's actually getting hit in the scrotum based on the way his legs are. It looks more like he's getting hit in the bottom of his butt.

[@twplays0]

“Abscess”. Thanks for typing it out later in the video! 😊
