Damn you skipped my favorite part: “looks like a spasm between L4 and L5” “Oh are you a doctor?” “Yes I’m a chiropractor.” “So no” makes me laugh every time haha
Should say not a MD if you want to be nitpicky
@@southcoastinventors6583 most chiropractors don't have a doctorate degree. So no. Not a doctor of any kind (usually).
Ironically, despite mocking the profession through the entire series, I think they accidentally normalised chiropractors in countries that don't have a lot of them like mine.
Why exactly aren't Chiropractors classed as doctors?
@@tombailey837because their practices are not backed by science and are seen as alternative treatment
"Why the head turn? Because we don't want people coughing on us."
Fair enough.
Biggest medical mystery of the ages, revealed!
Well what did you think it was for goofy
@@fernandoshoots4076 Well, considering all your muscles are attached, turning your head might affect something in the abdomen which could affect how things feel vs not turning the head. Goofy..
@@fernandoshoots4076 Quite honestly, I thought it was a muscle tension matter. Like turning your head when you cough changed how muscles pulled in different places.
Have you ever sneezed with your head turned to the side? Feels quite different from sneezing forward.
@@Saimeren no, goofy
Kid: "Ow, my head!"
Dr. Mike: "That's a head injury."
You can see that decade of higher education being put to good use there

Official diagnosis from Dr Mike: "the rhythm on the monitor is absolute poo-poo"
I'm in hospital all the time with my autoimmune disease. I wish my doctors would use language like this. It would make my time in hospital so much more fun 😂
Do they swear? I think Mike talks like this is so that everyone can understand him but it's definitely fun
To be fair I'm pretty sure he acts more professional with his actual patients. This is just obviously an informal setting. But also, I agree. If doctors would talk like people, it would make things a lot less stressful.
If I had an autoimmune disease I’d ask the doctors to talk like people with funny language, pls do that
No poo-poo on your EKG, so you're all good. :p
3:36
Jake: Ow my head!
Dr. Mike: Oh that’s a head injury.
Whaaa I thought it was a leg injury
fun fact, an endometriosis specialist took three phone calls during my appointment that i waited months for. for one of them her hand was still inside me. needless to say i won't be going back
Wooow. Already surprised you got in to see a specialist, since Endo seems to be so widely dismissed.
Then you get that.
Damn
“Charlie Sheen has had his fair share of health controversies”
That is certainly one way to put it 🙂
I don't get it🤔
What did Charlie sheen do
and by WINNING
@@josho7138just look it up. It's a lot. One being that he has tiger blood
The actor, Charlie Sheen, had serious addiction problems.@@Alana-yx3rp
0:27 Dr.mike: i would have stepped out of the room.
The doctor - [talking on landline]
then just don’t take the call
It's funny to see how sitcoms sometimes glamorize or dramatize medical situations for comedic effect.
Well yeah. Otherwise medical issues would either be a) super mundane, or b) super dark and depressing. Neither of which is exactly ripe for comedy.
Hearing "that's not how we do that" from you Dr. Mike makes me laugh every time. That's exactly how many of our parents did their own examinations of us when we got hurt followed by the mandatory "you'll be all right when the bleeding stops.'
The amount of nails that invaded my foot and it was clean it up. Go ahead and play outside
We need a trailer park boys video!
Even though Mike had boomer parents, his dad is a doctor, so it makes sense that he didn't get that treatment growing up
@@BonJoviBeatlesLedZep Oddly enough, he apparently did. Mike has mentioned a few times that his dad would take one look at him and just be like, "you're fine, walk it off."
6:45 in terms of household ladders, a huge amount of the issues are due to improper use. There are many times people want to use too short of a ladder and dont have the angle right, so it's easier to push over. Then there's not having the base of the ladder not be stable, like on too soft of ground or sloped ground, causing the ladder to tip sideways.
So, unless you can prevent people from doing stupid things, a better ladder won't help.
My dad managed to fall off two ladders in one go. He was working on his shed gutters. He decided not to ask my mum to help hold the ladder like he is always reminded to. He fell off his tall ladder, hitting a smaller ladder set up next to it. Mum only realised when our dachshund went crazy barking and she went to check. Ironically the smaller ladder broke his fall somewhat and luckily his only injuries were a few broken ribs and some bruising!
Glad your dad was ok! Its horrible feeling, suddenly our parents aren’t invincible anymore.. My FIL fell off a ladder and broke his back in the spring about a decade ago, he was checking on bird nests (huge nature lover). The following summer he had a heart attack, but luckily we still have him around. Few years back I bought him one of those inspection snake cameras, so his climbing needs are minimal. Now we get picture updates of the chicks, that are currently growing. Win-win in my book :)
My dad tells us about the time he fell off the roof of his brother's summer house. It was a two-floor villa, and I think he actually fell off the ground floor's roof or the upper one's balcony, I'm not sure.
Surprisingly he says he didn't sustain any injuries, he just lay there under the sun for a few minutes, then got up and was fine after.
Used ladders all my life and still kind of puzzled how people fall of must be an alignment issue.
@@southcoastinventors6583because ladders aren't stable lol
Oh, we could get into a 'who's dad is dummer' contest. I have lots if stories of dumb stuff my father did. Amazing that he had lived to be be 76.
“that is absolute poop poop, thats not real, he’d be dead” got me on the floor😂😂
My cousin fell out of a very high tree last week landed on the concrete. He went to the E.R ,left with a few scraps. My aunt was in tears when she saw how far up he fell and the fact he couldn't landed on the falling branches or something worse could have happened. 🙌
I’m so glad that he’s OK
@@BrettBlackmon Thanks , I'm glad he okay too. 🤗
❤️🩹Thank god he’s ok❤️🩹
Sneezing, big breaths, coughing, and yawning are the WORST when you have broken ribs. Also I had surgery for my back and it was the best decision I've ever made as I was basically a pile of bones and meat without it.
I mean... aren't we all basically a pile of bones and meat, though? 😂
Had a pretty bad case of pneumonia like that when i was a teen. Couldn’t move at all, not even take a normal breath without tearing up from pain. When those chest muscle hurt it’s awful. Every movement hurts them
I have sciatica and spinal stenosis and a herniated disk in my lower back and when they flare up sneezing or coughing makes it brutal
Physical therapy and heat worked the best but Meloxicam worked too it relaxed the spasms as Dr Mike said
This was one of my favorite shows when I was younger
😒,..
I had once broken my leg and had to watch alot of TV for entertainment, man this show was a saviour
It was never my favorite, but I can't believe the way it ended, such a weird finale
of course it was
It’s one of my go to shows when I’m watching TV with my Dad. My Dad watched it when I was growing up, but I didn’t start watching it with him until middle school. I love watching it with him. I also love the story about how he got into the show. My mom watched it when it first came out and told him to watch it (she had a feeling he would like it) and then he refused at first. Then he watched it and it ended up becoming one of his favorite shows. 🙂
Love your channel my medical careers teacher in high school always put your videos on back before the pandemic always good to be in the know dr Mike going to nursing school now wish me luck!
3:48 Yes, my friend had a heavy sign fall on her head and give her a bad traumatic brain injury, she couldn’t walk without holding onto someone and it gave her eye issues in one eye for several months. It’s been a year and a half, and she’s still got health issues and problems from it. She’s going to doctors still a few times a week.
A vasectomy is typically done in an office as simple procedure. But not always, as I can personally testify. Because, as a friend of mine likes to say, 'Nothing can be easy.'
4:34 - Vernee Watson is my favorite nurse ever! She's played nurses in just about everything, including this, The Big Bang Theory, and The West Wing. She's an actor, I know, but if I walked into a clinic and saw her there, I'd feel right at home!
Still amazed people get those unless there is a medical reason like testicular cancer or spread of genetic disorders.
@@southcoastinventors6583 Not wanting any(or any more) kids, or your partner not wanting kids is a perfectly valid medical reason. Edit: vasectomy IS birth control. And is reversible with the right procedure.
@@Mrs.Tarasevitch Birth control exists ?
❤❤❤Vernee Watson.
@@southcoastinventors6583I see you want to put the onnus on the woman. Vasectomy is a way or th man to take responsibility since he is an active part of the activity as well.
Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman is a really good one to react to if you wanna add some more medical history. She was also called Dr. Mike. 🙂
Yesssss
3:03 The EKG rhythm looks like a saw wave synth
As someone who had a heart attack, how Charlie was panting and holding his chest is pretty close to one
Sup Dr. Mike. Around 4:20 (lol) you're talking about signs of neurologic trauma. You are correct. I would like to add some precautions that deal specifically with head trauma. Inability to stay awake and vomiting. Questions whether there was LOC (loss of consiousnessness), which was asked in the show. Also don't forget about topical LET for easing the actual lido stick. Thanks ER nurse out.
Last week I met with an old ENT that I clocked walking in / out of my exam room to another patient, possibly using the restroom as well, all while not changing out his gloves 🤦♀️ I had already defended myself over the sterility of exam apparatus so I lost footing on anything else lol
My father took Demerol after his major car accident. He had the worst nightmares when he was coming off the drug. He had the repeated nightmare of being tied down in a grassy field, then knives and meat cleavers would chop his body up. He also had other patients describe similar painful dreams after using Demerol.
Ha, was not expecting this one. One of my favourite shows growing up like the show is definitely seen as “problematic” these days but damn those were good times
4:20 Dr. Mike, EMTs actually don’t use backboards for spinal immobilization anymore. When I look for sources about it, I can’t find much. However, the medical directors of two EMS services I have been at have agreed that backboards should not be used for spinal precautions because it can compromise airway and it forces the spine into an unnatural position. I am a new EMT (one year of experience) and they taught us to use backboards in school and I think they’re still teaching it, but all my protocols have said that the only thing we’re using for spinal precautions are C-collars.
I would be interested to hear your take or if you know of any research on this!
Time for Dr Mike to star in a medical TV show
In an ACCURATE medical TV show ❤
@@KatieDe_Gnah it'd be funnier if it was completely wrong
Im so excited to go into EMT this fall. Dr. Mike you have really helped drilled into my head what chest compressions is all about.
The turning ur head and laugh explanation is just wholesome for some reason😂
Not laugh but cough 😂
LOVE you, Dr. Mike. Thank you for keeping us informed!!!
I apparently have a very small mouth. When i was getting my braces on as a teenager. I had to get 5 adult teeth pulled to make room in my mouth (non of them were wisdom teeth, had 2 impacted and 4 total pulled bout 3 years later).
But the 5 adult teeth was worse. He put the needle in 16 times in my mouth. 4 times in the roof of my mouth (which hurts like a mfer).
My mouth was still completely frozen 10hrs later. I remember trying to eat a campbells chicken and rice soup and having rice all over my face but I couldn't feel it at all. Was a terrible experience.
Roof of mouth injections are THE WORST injections I have ever had, and I have had a freaking spinal tap.
did they not put a pallet expander in?
I used to watch this show all the time.😁😅 Thank you, Dr. Mike, for another video that's funny and educational!❤❤
Hey Dr Mike love the vids bro!
Thank you for showing how the staples are removed!! When I was studying to be a veterinary nurse we have a little dog with several small breast tumors, after removing them her incision was stapled. I was really curious how the staples would will be removed and the doctor toll me that she would show how she do it, but the covid quarantine interrupted my studies and wasn't able to see it.
The last scene reminds me of when I had a pinched nerve in my back for a couple of days, and that can be very painful
That cold numbing agent works so well. I had a series of numbing shots in the trapezius muscle to help my neck pain and that cold numbing spray kind of hurt more than the injections. My skin is just extra sensitive...or they used too much lol
Please review Brooklyn nine nine medical scenes!!!!!!! ❤❤
To give an injection painless, avoid any sideways movement of the needle. I'm not a doctor, but as a patient, i've been given several different medicines that needed to be injected. A nurse comes to your home to give an explanation on how to inject yourself. After that you apply the injections yourself. I think it's a very good way to learn how to inject to put the needle in your own body. Thank you for all the nice videos!
My previously healthy 42 year old uncle had a “back sprain” and they skipped the xray. He went back two more times complaining and still no scans. They said he was fine. Finally on his regular doctor’s vacation, another doctor ordered a CT scan and come to find out he had renal carcinoma that had metastasized to his bones in the form of osteosarcoma. He has over 20 lesions on his bones. He had multiple broken bones from the “physical therapy” he received. Luckily immunotherapy is working very well but just because someone is “young and healthy”- doesn’t make it true! We talk about gender and age bias and that should go in all ways- if a patient is telling you they’re worse and worse and feel like they’re dying- they might just be dying.
On the subject of sciatica, im 29 and when i got my lower back hernia i was 27 or so and my doctor grilled me for having hurt my back by sneezing. She sometimes shames me for the reasons why i visit her. But other specialists I went to see said its really common in people who did intense sports training in the formative years, which I very much was doing. A chiropractor told me the sneeze was just the final straw from that build up.
I have been watching this show all week it's like a sign from above 😂
9:38 The image you use is where the guy started palpating, where the discomfort was pretty minor. He worked his way down while you were explaining something. When he did get a reaction, the hands had gotten pretty close to (but still short of) where your arrow is indicating.
Omg I loved this show as a kid ❤❤
This ain't a kids show bruv tf 💀
Hi Mike, I'm a teenager and watching your videos motivates me to stay disciplined, and post a lot of 'day in your life' videos, hard-core fan ❤❤❤❤❤
I used to have horrible back pain and neck pain. I started changing the way I was sleeping and eventually it got a lot better and now I don’t usually wake up in any pain. Very rarely I will but not often.
0:11 "you are very very pregnant "😂😂😂😂 btw love your videos
Dr Mike I’m from Zambia I love your content 🇿🇲🙏🏾😭
Mike's content never dissapoints us❤
Ribbosouras Rex rocks
Who else loves DrMike ❤
Me
i hate him
Dr is not uppercase and I am a fan of Dr Mike
How could anyone NOTlove Dr. Mike is a better question, I thinks.
Im just avid
Dr.Mike's Watching your analysis of medical scenes reminds us of the importance of accuracy and detail in entertainment. Your dedication to educating and entertaining simultaneously is truly inspiring me lot ❤
plz doctor mike do its always sunny its amazing
10:53 to answer that question of why there would be a fracture.... brief story time
back when I was 14, I was dancing and training a lot and I had developed sciatic nerve and hip flexor pain. My left hip hurt when it supported my weight, it hurt to lift my left leg, and I had gone to the doctor and chiropractor multiple times and they had all brushed it off as a muscular issue since it only hurt when I engaged the muscles surrounding my hip, like doing those things mentioned before. So I just kept going on with my ballet and musical theatre training, pushing through the pain because it was bearable enough, UNTIL my leg buckled in a rehearsal and I felt I couldn't move. We went to our doctor friend who was an athlete specialist and he before had told us it was probably a muscular sprain, but now with the new issues he told us that we should probably get it x-rayed as a just in case precaution. TURNS OUT my hip was broken. Snapped, fractured, and had collapsed because I had kept dancing and training. So yeah... ig that's why the x-ray thing is kinda important. From every other stand point, it had come across as a muscular injury but nope. it was an injury that had only been seen in the armed forces and old people. and I had it happen to me at 14. and because we hadn't gotten an x-ray for so long, my hip had begun to heal in its collapsed form, so here I am with a leg an inch shorter than the other. And we didn't get surgery since it was so far along in healing process already and if I had gotten surgery, the orthopedic surgeon said I would have needed a hip replacement. (he also told me I probably wouldn't be able to walk the same again, let alone dance or run... but now, 2 years later, I hardly even have a limp, AND!!!! I can dance again and a few months ago I even played in an ultimate Frisbee national tournament, sprinting til my lungs gave out... and we placed 1st. soo yay ig!)
Love your videos doc mike! ❤ (Yay I’m early! 😊)
about 2003 I hit the top of my head and required an ER visit. They wanted to suture me, but I have a strong aversion to that. The ER doc was absolutely baffled when I asked for staples. Best decision ever. Barely felt them being applied to me and removing them was super easy and painless and I did that at home in the mirror.
@3:06 tell me he confused the ECG trace with the pulse tracing
Yes he did hahah
2:12 "those are fighting words" 😭😭😭😭😂😂😂
Can’t wait to watch this video😂❤
Dr. Mike you and I know the sight of blood and fainting has been studied. End result is. Most people who faint at the sight of blood is easily explained. When presented with the sight of blood and fainting is a natural cause. Suddenly exposed and not expecting to see blood is a natural response. Blood pressure drops rapidly as a survival mechanism causing passing out. A natural reflex. Also as a cable tech I fell from 28 feet. It was amazing I walked away with very little injury. Sneezing the next morning was one of the most painful experiences I had. Hurt to giggle as my wife watched and I tried to keep composer.
I love these videos! Since watching them, I look at medical scenes in TV shows differently. Especially the whole heart-monitor-thing. Would love to see a video on "The X Files" medical scenes. They definitely have A LOT of them :)
7:17 Sheen weirdly reassembles logo of Doctor Mike 🙃 cannot unsee it now😅
lets go doctor Mike posted!!!!!
I love your videos. Lots of good information in an entertaining format.
omg i love ur vids!❤
That last scene should been little bit longer 🤣🤣 it would been funny to see how dr. Mike explaining that doctors dont do that 🤣🤣
He just posted!
This seems better than a lot of the medical scenes you've reacted to. Even some of the unrealistic stuff seemed intentional for comedic effect.
All in favor of doctor Mike watching young Sheldon
Ohhhhh when my discs were herniated in my lower back crushing my sciatica in the area of L4 and L5. We did pain meds, physical therapy, injections, for over a year. I could hardly walk. I had to leave work. By the time my doctor gave me the go ahead for surgery I couldn't even walk anymore I needed help onto and off of couches and beds. It was hell and would never wish it on anyone
These vids always remind me of when you tell your parents something funny and they turn it in to a life lesson/speech lol 😂
So educative n funny. Thank u my fave doc
10/10 Content Bro
7:05 - first legitimate thing Doctor Mike has ever said. Sneezing with a blown out back where the bones are pinching the spinal cord is literally torture.
I will forever miss two and a half men. Shout out to my dad who showed me this show including Mike and Molly. Thank you dad rest in peace ✌️
6:40 to solve the ladder problem a ejection Seat will work perfectly😂
can you react to modern family medical scenes?
I have a Cefar TENS and it is excellent for sciatic pain, and whatever the heck is going on in my lumbar spine. Not inexpensive, but a heck of a lot safer than many of the options. Best results were after I brought it to physio and my physiotherapist worked with me to find the best placements for my body.
This show is hilarious
Beautiful profile
Funny story about my doctor taking personal calls:
One day I was feeling under the weather, nothing too serious but I went to see my doctor. She called me in and she also called a fast food restaurant to order a double cheese burger 😂😂 I was just sitting there, waiting for her to finish. It was hilarious!
I was watching Dr.Mike before this,lol
Can we please have more
Dr reacts videos, they're always fun to watch
Who thinks that Dr mine should react to medical ASMR 😂
Omg thats a thing?!
@@PaolaPonce-ec7tm yeah lol like medical roleplays
Great videos Mike keep doing what your doing
1:45 So about a day for me and I'd be fine, got it
(Wait what?)
Weird flex bragging about your pornsickness
I felt for Jake when he hit his head! I fell backwards at work when I tripped on a falling rug I was trying to fix while unloading a truck and I was on the concrete floor in receiving when it happened but thankfully the way I fell my side bore most of the contact/damage and my head didn’t actually hit the concrete as hard as I thought it would so I never bled or had any LOC. The medical company we have a contract with cleared me from needing to go to the hospital based on a rigorous series of questions by a licensed medical professional and it just so happened to also be my last shift for the week before my two nights off so I was able to rest and recover at home just to be safe and ward off any potential concussive symptoms from the mild hit but thankfully I was fine. Head injuries are no joke however and I hope that never happens again!
Kid: “OW MY HEAD”
Dr Mike: “That’s a head injury”
Thank god this guy went to medical school because I would have been lost without his help.
It’s really nice to see someone making themselves well-known for something good in the medical community
3:45 Jake: “OW My Head”
Dr Mike, a medical doctor: “oh, that’s a head injury” 🤓
Petition for Doctor Mike to do more videos with Rib
👇
I had Shingles in September of 2024(29 yrs old) I got Valtrex. 2nd most painful thing I experienced aside from my kidney stone. From most painful:
1. Kidney stone
2. Shingles
3. 3 broken ankle bones/2 surgeries
4. Broken nose(broke it at a hospital. Went from a visitor to a patient)
Dr. Mike, a new South Park special came out that you should review called South Park: The End of Obesity. Also, you should review all four South Park COVID specials, now that the worst part of COVID is likely over.
Love your vids mike I might be able to see you down in ny bc I might be going for vacay but not saying I will js a might anyways keep it up love you videos
I just KNOW this is gonna be a funny one!
For your next responding to comments video: I get hives on my legs but only in the summertime. What causes this and what can I do to help prevent them? Thank you! Me and my wife love watching your videos!
Hi, Dr Mike
Great Content as always, Doctor Mike!
Sorry for missing out!

Haha, this ‘notice me Mike’ syndrome has no cure because it’s Mike afterall 😅❤
I'm surprized herniated discs aren't treated all over the world with a simple keyhole plasma procedure. I found a surgeon 15 years ago in Singapore who treated my ex who was in and out in a few hours no postop, no back pain ever again - after suffering immensely for over a year.i remember we left the hospital a couple of hours after the procedure back to our hotel and he dropped his keycard, bent over to get it and was amazed there was absolutely no pain!
