hi
I love your videos :D
i will not use grammarly ever
Where can I post the question you will answer in the future videos?
For 30 years I was trying to remember why I was sent to stay with my Great Aunt for the Summer I was 7. I knew something drastic must have happened at home but I could not find out. Last year I was standing in my kitchen and it came to me all of a sudden. She lost her husband and they sent me there to keep her company. How precious and now all the memories make sense. Suppressed memories CAN come back .
Im wondering why you're not just ask your parents or anyone in your fam about it xD
@homeland1128 Some people don't think to ask. I have an issue like that where I don't ask questions and instead just wonder to myself.
Just gotta focus on that pinky toe.
@@CTW-Gyou should ask question freely no need to wonder to yourself
@CTW-G Good question. I grew up in the 60s. I didn't think my family would be honest if it were something shameful. I did ask my older sister and she said she didn't know.
Kicking you out because you only had 300k subscribers. I bet they're kicking _themselves_ now. Good for you, Dr. Mike, sticking to your principles. Sometimes integrity pays off.
I say integrity always pays off. Perhaps not financially or in other tangible ways, but integrity means YOU are standing up for YOU.
I feel like integrity always pays in the long run. Sure short term profit always is an option, but integrity helps with many social dynamics and can actually be pretty profitable.@@teresaellis7062
also his eyeliner i see it lol
The Good Dr is primed for commercial exploitation. He can only hold off for so long.
It's such an American story. Most businesses around the world have foresight and can read potential markets fairly well. American business philosophy revolves around short term profits with no real long term sustainability and it's part of why the US economy is falling to pieces.
I like that you would rather lose your channel than promote something you don’t like. That really speaks volumes about your moral integrity.
Why would he lose his channel over this?? Lol
And that makes him even sexier 😍🤤
He talked about it on another video. Something like that almost happened because he wouldn’t support something he didn’t like, for people that were funding his videos.
My mum had a small patch of dry skin on her top lip that wouldn’t heal since 2018, so eventually spoke to the doctor. Turned out it was basal cell carcinoma (skin cancer). She was prescribed some chemotherapy cream and got the all clear last week, thank goodness! Always wear sunscreen!
Chemotherapy cream lol. Ok I shouldn't laugh but there's no such thing. They use extremely acidic/basic creams to essentially burn off anything it touches. My mum went through several iterations of it as well. Some types look gruesome while their face peels off but it looks great afterwards - lot less worrying, if you know what i mean.
Acids and bases are chemicals. That's chemotherapy. Chemical therapy. I'm pretty sure they make them with more traditional drugs, too.
only a small patch of dry skin? I probably would never think to check that 😳
@@cornchips007 My cousin's husband is using chemo cream on his face...so I think it is a real thing. Just saying.
My cousin's husband sunscreen actually caused him to get cancer because o fit's ingredients ...so make sure the sunscreen is a healthy one. He is pissed because he wore it faithfully , & boom it made him worse. Sad
Thanks for not quitting UA-cam. I hate that some company called y'all a failure when you probably own one of the best medical UA-cam channels we have here.

The pelvic floor dysfunction is so real but I almost never hear it talked about so kudos for that! My pelvic PT got me to stop having urgency because I was doing that “force it just in case” thing all the time.
The first doctor to speak to me about my pelvic floor was a pelvic pain specialist in another city, (who referred me to my PT) not my gp, not my OBGYN, like an endometriosis surgeon. After going to PT for my pelvic floor I’m a huge advocate for learning about it and talking about it, I think it would help a lot of folks :)
How did you deal with the anxiety when trying to make the change? I know I'm causing myself problems by going too frequently, but if I don't, I can't think about anything else.
@@Wolfimoon By forcing (gently) yourself to be positive about it, to have positive beliefs about the habit you are trying to bring about (eg telling yourself "this is a really good practice, it's very good for me, this will give me happiness byetc")
@@Wolfimoon I heard their are apps that help to make it like a game
i was referred to see a PT for pelvic floor therapy due to endometriosis and vaginismus but im so afraid ):
@@severedheadzworst thing that can happen is no improvement so things can only get better!
Thank you for not quitting youtube, I believe you're the most reasonable and realistic doctor I know of.
The memory thing makes sense to me. That loss of connection to a memory is exactly why I can't remember single points of data. I have to have multiple data points to remember so that I have multiple avenues to access that memory. I can remember entire lists of names of people but I can't remember a single name unless I connect it to an existing set in my head.
Can we appreciate the irony that our brains know exactly how they work they just refuse to tell us.
Yeah, also nothing is ever lost in our minds. In 2017 I had the same dream I had when I was in kindergarten. And for the past few years my dreams repeat sometimes, but I still keep forgetting them. Sometimes I randomly remember things I haven't thought about for 15 years.
Similar for me with song lyrics. I can't tell you "what comes after this line?" or "what's line number x?" but if I just go through the song in my head I can easily recite the whole thing.
That's why I asked😅, I needed an answer
@@LGBTQLegend Best quote I heard in my life
Traumatic memories can be unconsciously kept deep in the brain and then can be triggered by a similar experience that brings back memories of the trauma. This is a form of survival that keeps memories from becoming overwhelming to remember. 😢
All memories are stored in the subconscious. Nothing is gone permanently (not including brain damage from head trauma) the memories are stored away we just can't consciously remember everything.
Trauma memories are recurrent and vivid not "repressed"
I once remembered something traunatic but forgot what it was again but I still remember that I had remembered something traunatic.
@@whothefrickareyou8106 I hope you find your peace in this world soon.
@@UA-camr5775- I also need to find more "m"s
Forgotten memories don’t go anywhere in most cases not involving brain degeneration or injury, they get blocked from access by other processes. Interestingly, “forgetting” is an active process in the brain that is different from “not remembering”. It’s why you can have something “on the tip of your tongue” and remember it later.
You do such a great job at this. When people ask too in-depth questions you’re like “babe that’s out of my jurisdiction” and you’re so honest. ❤
LOL...my mother trained my brothers and I to go to the bathroom before we went anywhere. So, even now at 76, when someone says, "Let's go", I have to use the bathroom. My mother trained me well.
Sunday mornings I go to the bathroom before I leave and then again when I get to church and after Sunday school and then after choir sings. It’s a good training you mom did with you.
plus you don’t want a full. bladder and get in an accident ! this i learned from my friend who is a trauma transport nurse….so now i think of that evey time i’m getting in a car, bladder liquid level 🙄🤔
Totally being controlled with watching Dr.Mike instead of self reflecting, no regrets.
Same. And I do my best thinking while playing solitaire or Candy Crush.
said everyone who watches his channel lol
I am glad you did not quit UA-cam! I use your videos ALL the time for my CNA students. Thank you for all you do!
Thank you for being here, Mike. You’ve helped me and my family so much!
A lot of people are way too easily embarrassed by their own bodies so it's hard to ask questions about things like peeing in the shower when we see doctors in person. I'm not one of those people but I'm glad Dr. Mike can be their safe place where they can ask embarrassing questions and he takes the time to answer them. We need to normalize these conversations so we can all be comfortable being open and honest with our health care providers so we can advocate for ourselves and get better care.
This right here!
Something to note about peeing in the shower is that shower water and toilet water don't always go to the same place. You usually don't have to worry about this in your house, but Cruise ships usually do handle shower water and toilet water differently.
Also drs don’t seem too interested in anything else except for the very specific thing you came in for. Went to see a dr to see if I was pre diabetic (I wasn’t) & just brought up my irregular cycle & gave her a graph of them courtesy of my period app & she basically went “weird. Anyway…”
Never quit UA-cam, Mike. You do such an amazing job debunking misinformation n we wait for u every Wednesday and Sunday with something new. Kudos to u, Doc.👏
thank you for not quitting social media. your knowledge and shared info is invaluable to the community.
That info about memories is so true! I find that when I allow myself to sit and think, many things popped into my head that I thought I’d forgotten! 🙌
Don't quit UA-cam. Your content is very informative and entertaining.
Dr.Mike is always there when we need him most
Dr. Mike is always there when we need him moist
But he wasn't there when I lost my legs in 2045.
@doctormike I could listen to you talk all day and never get tired of hearing your soothing voice. 💙😘🥰😍
I asked a question on another one of your videos. Thought about it for a day. Made a doctor's appointment. Thanks for getting me to put it into words and realize it was a real problem!
Dr Mike I’m so glad you didn’t quit UA-cam when you almost did. I have had some terrible medical experiences which causes me to have pretty severe medical anxiety to the point where I won’t go to the doctor until something gets really bad. After watching your content (and also Mama Dr Jones!) for a few years now I’ve realized it’s really helped with my fear of going to the doctor, and has raised my standards for how I should be treated/given me language to speak up for myself when I do go. Thank you ‼️‼️‼️
Some doctors can be so arrogant and look down on you like you’re an idiot … I have encountered a few over my many years. If I don’t have a connection to a Dr I will never put myself being tin their presence ever again, I don’t care how good they think they are. Your mental health is also important! I ways do what is best for you. ❤
Very cute cat
*dr mike being worried about using phones instead of thinking for yourself*
me watching the video, in school, on my phone, ignoring ppl around me: 😰
Self awareness unlocked!
Phones aren't the problem. The work til you die culture in America is the problem. American workers work over 100 more hours per year than Japanese workers on average and they often get less pay, little to no vacation time, and no mandated days off. I think that's a much bigger problem than you being on your phone.
@@LGBTQLegend In America if you're someone who works over 100 more hours per year than Japanese workers? sure, it may be. but to a student, phones are often one of THE most detrimental things to their health, mainly mentally.
@@deadosaka1712 Do you have a peer reviewed study to back that up?
@@LGBTQLegendAh sure don't but how about personal experience? Just burying my phone away in my purse whenever I'm away from home has _vastly_ improved my mental health when i didnt even realize i had a problem. The _real_ issue imo is social media like tiktok and yt shorts or whatever else, its a flood of random content that overwhelms the brain and leaves you feeling stressed 24/7 I'm not saying "raah get off your phone kid!" But rather, try just forgetting about the phone from time to time. You might find that you don't miss it :)
I really like your channel, Doctor Mike. Truly and sincerely. You really do just seem like a man that is happy to give people knowledge and tools to help themselves the best they can, and if they SHOULD NOT or COULD NOT, you’re so quick to tell people to get the help they need. You seem to love your profession and it really is a breath of fresh air. Thank you for all of this wonderful information!
Love this rapid fire question format. Makes it not boring and keeps you entertained
A boxing fighter and a family doctor is beyond my mind. Managing a boxing carrer is hard enough but to balance three things is absolutely amazing! Doctor Mike is the man
hes the one🤗
That's two things

🤣 sigh face palm
I rlly luvv your vids bc they’re so informative. Thank u for starting this UA-cam channel (Proudly Nigerian)
Thank you for not quitting UA-cam. And a HUGE thank you for not being pushed into endorsing things that you can't fully stand behind as a medical professional. Your comment about extra vitamins and such not really shortening illness time really hit home with me. My family has chronic medical issues--everything from severe asthma and autoimmune hives to chronic sinusitis and a deviated septum. If I had a dollar for every time someone said, "Oh, you should take this vitamin," or "You need to be exposed to more germs," or "More time outdoors would help your asthma," I'd be a heck of a rich person. You'd think that they'd understand if there's a genetic predisposition to health issues and you've been dealing with it for almost FORTY years, something like a vitamin isn't going to magically fix it. Having regular checkups, eating healthy, and following treatment plans that my specialists give me, however, does help me live a better quality of life.
I agree! Although I have to mention that I have a chronic Vit D deficiency due to underlying chronic medical conditions and I'm permanently on prescribed Vit D tablets which really helps to keep my levels normal. Blood tests have shown how alarmingly low my Vit D levels become when I'm not on these prescription tablets. I also have to get monthly Vit B12 injections and iron (IV) infusions once or twice a year to keep my levels normal due to my nutrient absorption issues and other chronic medical conditions. So I would def advocate for supplements prescribed by specialists (not just a GP) if they make a huge difference and it shows up in your blood tests (or blood work as Americans call it).
1:15 the best thing ive been doing for my mental health lately is burying my phone in the bottom of my purse while im out of the house. While im walking or waiting for a bus or something, i wont even look at it or listen to music or anything. My quality of life feels so much better just with that little lifestyle change. These phones are like a tornado through the brain. Theyre a disaster for our mental health and I'll die on that hill
Was it hard to give up at first? I feel like I'm completely attached to my phone.
1:30 Before cell phones, I had always had a book. Now I have access to lots of books
thank you. books use to be the phones lol. don't want to talk to people, open a book. Bored? open a book.
how many of them do you actually read though
@@ganyu_literallyfor me I own upwards of 6/700 books. And read at least probably another 3/400 more than that. Another 50 audio books listened to as well. Those of us who carry books or kindles or have books on our phone read them alot 😂
More than ever needing a doctor with great grades, we need way more doctors with bigger hearts and tenacity for their patients.
This video is loaded with great info. Thanks for sharing.
Sorry mike but I can’t leave the house without going for my ‘just in case wee’. I just can’t. Too many bad experiences. 😂
I always called it "final pee" when I was a little kid, because I'd always use the bathroom right before we got in the road for long trips. It's honestly just handier if you're going to be out of the house for a couple hours or more to pee beforehand just so you don't have to worry about usually gross public bathrooms, interrupting your time out, and if you hit traffic or you get stranded due to a car issue, you're all set until help comes or traffic moves. I still have a really strong bladder when needed too so the habit has never ruined my ability to hold my bladder if necessary
have you ever been stuck in a car having to pee? Its not pleasant lol
Agree, there isn’t always a bathroom when needed, and if in class teachers can get really annoyed at you if you need to go.
Tactical wee!
Same!!! Thought I was the only one 😂
As always, the way you approach complex medical issues with humor and easy-to-grasp explanations is truly impressive. The bit about cracking knuckles was eye-opening.
Dr. Mike is perhaps the only person who I don't skip the ad talks
Regarding the peeing in the shower, I have been doing it for years and I have noticed that I haven't gotten any foot problems like fungal stuff.
He said that only applies if you have a UTI
If i could subscribe multiple times to support you i would, you are such an amazing creator and kind person, thank you for all of your hard work
Dr. Mike, I have diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis and as a result I am on disability and spend most of my time at home. I absolutely love your humor, I look forward to your videos everyday! You keep me smiling despite how I am feeling. This disease is very hard to live with. I loooooove you!
Respect for you man. Things like that make life suck, and seeing people like you break through the mold and enjoy life anyway just brightens my day. Keep positive my man :D
You drew a tough card. Your attitude is so admirable. I'm glad for your sake as well as many others I've seen on here that Doctor Mike didn't quit UA-cam.
Isn’t it amazing how someone you’ve never met can have such an incredible impact on your life? Dr. Mike and KallmeKris (and quite a few others like OneTopic and SpeechProf but it made me so happy when I first saw Dr. Mike and Kris collab that they were the first to kind) have helped me more then I ever would’ve expected and it’s wild. I have quite a number of mental illnesses and the impact this kind of genuine, loving people have on us is invaluable. I’m so glad that you feel such a lovely connection with this content and community. I’m so glad to be a part of this community with you. 💜 I hope you’re having the best day possible.
I understand completely. I am also disabled and going for my 2nd surgery to ready my new fistula for dialysis. I agree that a positive attitude is EVERYTHING. Dr. Mike makes me happy too. 😊 I also adore Bear! Both of them are so handsome. And smart!

I’m glad you didn’t quit UA-cam! You’ve helped me make sustainable lifestyle changes!
For the first question, I actually used to go and get allergy shots once a week for allergies to do with trees and dusts and cats, and after a couple years of shots i can cuddle cats and spring time is so mich more bearable
My older brother did that too.
My son grew out of the same allergies you mention without the shots
Same, they always stung
Same. My allergy shots improved my day to day during my fall season so much.
The splinter question reminded me that I had a splinter in my big toe that my body hardened and made the skin feel and look dead. It was just a little spot, but it made kickball impossible to play. A year later we just had to grind down the skin and take out the splinter because of pain. This happened in my early elementary days decades ago and there is nothing there today! So doctor Mike is telling the truth!
I had a coworker who to a multiflora rose thorn stuck in the back of her hand, and these thorns are TINY. She tried to pull it out but failed and then she figured her body would just work it out since it was so small. But further from the case, it made her hand swell and she had to go to urgent care for this tiny little thing.
Dr Mike, I am Russian like you😊 I live in Belgium, since '96. I love your videos. Thank you for informing us, medically. ❤ I love you so much. Such a handsome dictor AND with Russian roots. 😂 I love you and Bear. But you're a scorpio, not an easy person❤ But I love you, as a docter ofcourse and appreciate your medical advise. Keep up the good work, doc! Я люблю тебя ❤❤
Thank you for following your heart ❤️
Props to dr Mike to Turing down sponsorships that were bs or that he didn’t like even when he had pressure to from the company that helped him startup
I’m glad you didn’t quit! You’ve been able to help so many people in just a few years. None of that would have happened if you had believed what they had told you.
Keep proving them wrong! :)
the outro allways gets me to watch more! IDK how but the videos he puts at the end just leave me curious so I usually always click on them. Good content Mike!
Thanks doc. I fully believe that there are two types of people, those who pee in the shower and those who refuse to admit it. It's the most relaxed you can make yourself, so let it flow.
Um no.... That's not a normal thing. It makes no sense. Pee before getting in the shower
The Pee question you all came for lol, 7:00, you're welcome! haha 🤣
Holy Sh** !! EDIT: lol, over 800 likes ! That is the most I have ever received, thank you everyone, you all are so awesome, hope you all Stay Happy & Healthy!! 😍

Watching this video to fill ten minutes of silence during my morning, I was not expecting to be ATTACKED in this way 1:20
You’re are just so adorable. I really like your views, and opinions on healthcare.
humble and honest 😊
I'm so glad you didn't quit UA-cam, Dr. Mike! I love watching all your videos for the wealth of knowledge and entertainment 😊.
Was he talking about it?
@@BickyToya yeah he was
Telling the truth is always the challenging part of yourself but once people started to see it's benefits then more people wanting to hear it more in itself so i'm glad Doctor Mike didn't give up and stop telling the truth because we need it as affirmation to us especially when it comes to overall health and most us know are not expert in that field so thank you Doctor Mike please be always healthy alongside with sam.
My thoughts take over when I watch UA-cam to the point that the video ends and I have no idea what it said. The brain is a powerful organ!!!
As far as being on social media constantly, I don't do that. During the day, I workout & only listen to music during that time. It's always good to "unplug" and think about things for a little while.
Please don't quit UA-cam Dr. Mike! You're funny, informative and just an overall good Human being.
Question for you, how do you stay in such good shape?
As an autistic person I wouldn’t be able to survive without my phone 😅 sitting with my thoughts and socializing can both be very hard
I agree very much. I also have ASD, and I either sit with my thoughts, or trying to socialize, can't do both without getting exhausted.
Autism was a recognized condition for 64 years before the mass proliferation of smartphones, but obviously the brain chemistry and structures existed long before that, so: yes, you could survive.
❤
As someone with ASD and ADHD, yes, sitting alone with our thoughts CAN be very difficult, but it is absolutely worth it. Our brains need times of doing nothing- true nothing, not just being on our phones- to process information. That’s why stuff like showering and short walks are so good for your mental health- because you are giving your brain a break instead of continuing to force-feed it even more information. This year I have realized that a lot of my problems absolutely stem from or at least are worsened by my addiction to my phone and not letting my brain have times of rest while awake. I even think that neurodivergent people might be affected WORSE by this because we can more easily become overloaded or struggle to process information! If you get understimulated when you try to take these times of purposeful nothing, maybe try doing something mindless with your hands like using a fidget toy to keep your brain entertained without overloading it with information :)
I'm in the same situation. Gotta stimulate that noisy brain.
My office in Brussels was just around the corner from that Mannekin Pis statue in your Video! Thank you for reminding me :)
Man, that "alone with your thoughts" one....... that's painfully accurate. Like we're so rarely alone with our thoughts now, what with Twitter, IG, Tiktok, and even YT. Instant gratification apps are killing us mentally.
I love your answers and honesty. Thank you for turning down big time ad business. You truly care about your viewers. 💜
These are amazing. Everyone has these questions and I'm here for it. Thank you for the knowledge and information for helping me make more informed decisions.
U r a doctor,I’m not afraid of , thanks for the video, from india ❤
I learned the hard way with the armpits recently. Because I had irritation, and as soon as I started to clean it off, it all went away. Never asked the doctor. But I just kind of figured it out. I’m glad you brought it up though.
I'm glad you decided to stick with UA-cam and highlight that you can engage on this platform ethically and honestly and be successful.
Thank you for the medical knowledge Dr. Mike
To the question about preventing a cold you feel coming on, I found that for me just as mike said. I make sure I take in vitamins, water and rest and typically it goes away before I get sick.
Congratulations on 12M subscribers!
Thank you very much for not quit I love your channel ❤ xx
My dad and I made a cracking your eggs joke this past weekend while helping my mom move furniture around their house. We told her to let us move the desk so she didn't bust an ovary or crack an egg. LOL Thanks for reminding me of a funny memory.
8:11 guilty of peeing before I leave the house even if don’t have to go 😂😂 Just a habit
Sometimes I dont and wish I did lol. If I know im riding my escooter I def go before leaving. I dont wanna pee my pants speeding when standing lol
as someone with bad anxiety problems.. i do the same lol. basically impossible to leave the house without peeing first.
Which is interesting cos that’s what potty trainers are told to do..
Same, and I'm not stopping! lol
I did allergy shots for several years and they really helped me. I of course wouldn’t say that’s a guarantee for anyone else but they really helped me. I had such bad allergies I was struggling to breathe on a day to day basis and now I’m completely functional. Some asthma remaining but so much better. My roommate is going to try getting a cat next year, and I’m optimistic!
I'm from Indonesia and i love all of your content. It's so funny, easy to understand, and help me so much to know medical fact. Thank you dr.Mike, and I love you 💌
Who else is watching this on the toilet???
Congratulations on making it to 12 million subscribers 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Dr mike teaches me so much stuff and I want to thank you 🙏
One of the reasons I selected Pediatrics as my specialty was how quickly kids recover. You get the problem solving aspect of Internal Medicine plus the immediate gratification of surgery. Plus preverbal children can’t tell what’s going on. I learned during residency that if I kept my mouth shut long enough, 95% of the time, the mom (regardless of the educational level) would point me to the correct diagnosis. I had a happy and successful 20 year career in private practice before starting my second career in new drug review at FDA.
I’m a teen
Yesterday my cold was very bad
Today I only have a stuffy nose left
Love the Amanita Muscaria cup.
Dr Mike really makes my day also he's huge motivation for me for getting into medical school by clearing the exam so shout out to Dr Mike!!!!!
Edit: i am preparing for this year!!! And he's my biggest motivation to work hard!
I think an ADHD superpower is being able to have downtime and remember memories WHILE browsing TikTok WHILE pondering the meaning of life WHILE creating an epic 135473 step business plan that will change the world. It's like having multiple brains. Downside to ADHD is taking action on any of those things because all of those brains are at war with each other about priority but, hey, stilll a superpower.
Also a downside... trying to remember any of that 😅
Thank you for putting this into words!
Not an expert in memory stuff but I've read that it is stored in the hippocampus and there seemed to be neuronal connections with different senses like smell, vision, touch, etc.
So some ''lost'' memories can come back all of a sudden if we come accross, for example, a specific smell from that memory. It will create the same neuronal connection pathway and make us remember.
Also memories are more easy to remember the more we think about them because it reinforces the neuronal pathway in the hippocampus. Which is one of the reasons why spaced repetition is a good study method.
Ive found that trying very hard to recall a memory, to the point of frustration, then taking a break from trying to remember actually works well for me. The frustration sends the signal that its important and i need it, the break allows my mind to actually accomplish the task. The break is critical, and i expect the conscious attempt to not work on its own
Thank you Dr. Mike for the information you give us about what is correct and what is not correct that people should do and I send you a big hug for you also for dog bear and Roxy and when are you going to make a video again with bear, Roxy, your nephews and your sister 😊
Dr.Mike's comment at the 3:25 mark about med students who become doctors after doing the bare minimum to slide by in med school reminds me of a joke I once heard:
Q: What do you call the student who finishes last in their class at med school?
A: Doctor
I heard once C’s get degrees lol
@@kathygonzalez8737 LOL! Yeah....and when that C student becomes the one you're trusting your life with, that's utterly horrifying!
@@crow_feather not rly drs have years and years of hands on training and learning much more valuable
@@kathygonzalez8737 My parents are doctors. My mom taught med school. Med students are graded on how well they do on the floor during hands on training, as well as how well they do in the classroom. If they're getting Cs, it's because they're slacking on the floor during hands on training, too! Besides, what they learn in the classroom is knowledge that they then put into practice on the floor when they're getting that hands on training. If they're not paying attention in class, they're not gonna know what the hell they're doing on the floor!
On top of that, though, if they're slacking in school, it's because they don't give a damn about the care they're providing. That's definitely not someone I want caring for me! I'll take a doctor who actually cares!
I used to work for a veterinarian drug testing show horses. I was a Pee Collector. The horses who'd been on the track (ex-race horses) were conditioned to pee post-race when you whistled 'La Cucaracha". Worked like magic.
Definitely Zachary Levi. There is a similar energy to both of you when you get enthusiastic about a subject. Definitely the person for the biopic.
My son broke his arm while carrying an empty horse feed bucket when he was 2½.
It took hours for him to be seen in the ER, and that's one of the rare times I've almost lost my temper at a hospital.
Once the triage doc saw it, he was a little pissed they didn't give him higher priority.
They x-rayed it and was a clean break.
They used pins and rods to hold it in place while it healed.
When they took the last x-ray, there was zero evidence of a break.
He's 5½ now and occasionally says his arm hurts.
But it doesn't slow him down.

"Now my patients are on social media". This is an incredibly smart way of thinking, in my opinion. People should always take a serious issue to their own GP but let's face it, in the age of the internet people are immediately hopping onto their preferred search engine to check if there's something wrong with them so why not make it so they're easily find information from a real doctor instead of a shady forum with a likely-scaremonger?
I hope to be in your next question video! I have some really good questions for us Pregnancy Ladies😂❤. I love you videos, please keep it up
HOORAY ANOTHER SERIES COMING BACK
I just got braces last Monday and I would like to say thank you for making me realize that the sores on my cheek were from them
I wish I could tell you it's a temporary problem, but it isn't 😅
I still have scar tissue in my cheeks from nearly... 15? 16? years ago where my braces tore them up, but after a while you get numb to it
There are products that you can stick inside your mouth over night on top of those sores and it heals really fast. Look in the canker sore section of the pharmacy. They work well. Not the liquid stuff. It's actually a little round bandaid for inside your mouth.
You can get some mouldable clear putty kinda stuff at your dentist that’s really useful for situations like this where your braces are scratching you. You just break a small piece off and press it onto the part of the braces that’s bothering you. It helps with the pain because your braces are no longer digging into the wound or blister, and that also keeps the braces from irritating it further so it can heal. I used it whenever I got blisters when I had braces.
I think you should ask you dentist if something is wrong with your braces if you’re getting like actual wounds though. I’ve never heard of that happening before so I’m not sure that’s normal. Maybe there’s a sharp edge or something that needs to be filed down.
@choddle8427 . It's dental wax I think
Ok
Good information.
I will use the grammar link.
I get easily overheated and have had hyperthermia before. That tip was helpful!
1:30 the guilty look of someone who has himself succumbed to the internet's allure of constant entertainment, knew it was bad for him, but was unable to resist. I see you, Mike, I see you!
I'm very sensitive to changes in the weather, especially when the seasons change. I also used to get a ton of sinus infections as a kid. My mom always made me go see the doctor, and the doctor always gave me the same thing: ten days of ammoxicillin. As an adult, I don't go to the doctor quite as often, unless it lasts a long time or it feels worse than normal. When I do feel it coming on, my go-tos are chicken soup and hot toddies.
