This driver insisted the parked bus “came out of n This driver insisted the parked bus “came out of nowhere.” Most people assumed he was reckless. But when doctors reviewed the events leading up to the crash, they found a neurological condition affecting how his brain processed the world around him. He repeatedly ignored objects, people, and hazards on the same side before the collision. If a medical condition causes a crash, should the driver still be held responsible? #medicine #neurology #brain #stroke #medicaleducation
Which of these are human? All six X-rays show offs Which of these are human? All six X-rays show offspring growing inside. The clues are in the skull shape. One flies, one is a common pet, one is hunted, and the rest can walk upright. Can you name all six? Let me know your first guess and I’ll help. #anatomy #medical #animals #medicine #science
You’re completely healthy. No symptoms. No cancer. You’re completely healthy. No symptoms. No cancer. Then doctors tell you to remove your entire stomach. For some families with a CDH1 mutation, this is not hypothetical. They face an extraordinarily difficult choice: remove a healthy organ now, or live with a very high risk of an aggressive stomach cancer that has already affected multiple relatives across generations. What would you choose?#medicine #cancerawareness #genetics #doctorsofinstagram #medicalfacts
His only symptom was nosebleeds. What doctors eve His only symptom was nosebleeds. What doctors eventually pulled from his nose had been living there for weeks and had grown far larger than anyone expected. Watch until the end and tell me: what animal in your nose would scare you the most? #medicine #medicaleducation #humanbody #doctors #anatomy
How many animals can you identify from their skull How many animals can you identify from their skulls? At first, it may look like bunch of skulls, but you will actually see the animal when you look closely. The head shape, jaw, and teeth give away more than you’d think. Here’s your hint: 3 are predators and 3 get eaten. Drop your guesses before you look at the comments. #medicine #anatomy #animals #science #wildlife
This man told his doctor, “Every time I turn my he This man told his doctor, “Every time I turn my head, half my body goes weak and I can’t talk.” His doctor placed a finger deep near his tonsil, which led to a surprising diagnosis: Eagle syndrome. An 8 cm skull bone was compressing his carotid artery and causing mini-strokes. Surgery carried about a 10% risk of complications, including nerve damage or stroke. But without surgery, turning his head carried a 10% risk of stroke. Would you have surgery or live with it? #medicine #stroke #doctor #neurology #medicaleducation
Which one these six is human? The other five are a Which one these six is human? The other five are animals: two common pets, one flies, one swims, and one runs. Look closely at the eyes, skull shape, and brain before you guess. Name all 6. I will be helping you in the comments. #science #animals #medicine #anatomy #brain
What if part of your skull could be replaced with What if part of your skull could be replaced with a window? It sounds like science fiction, but neurosurgeons are already using transparent skull implants that allow ultrasound to see inside the brain. The technology may help monitor brain tumors, blood flow, and pressure without relying on imaging alone. As a neurosurgeon, this is one of the most fascinating innovations I’ve seen in years. Would you want a window to see your brain? #medicine #neurosurgery #science #medicaleducation #innovation
She kept telling people something was crawling und She kept telling people something was crawling under her skin. The strange part? Every few days it seemed to appear somewhere new. Most people thought she was imagining it. She wasn’t. Doctors eventually discovered a live parasite migrating beneath her skin and even reaching her eye. Cases like this are rare, but they remind us that sometimes the symptoms patients describe are exactly what’s happening.#medicine #medicaleducation #doctor #health #science
