Holding in a sneeze seems harmless until you reali Holding in a sneeze seems harmless until you realize the pressure can be strong enough to cause a blowout skull fracture. In this rare case, trapped pressure forced air and mucus into the brain and the patient needed a surgical repair of the fracture. Most people have held in a sneeze without thinking twice. After seeing this, would you still do it? #healthcare #medicaleducation #neurosurgery #sneezing #healthfacts
Surgery is risky enough without adding ego to it. Surgery is risky enough without adding ego to it. As a surgeon, I can think of almost no good reason to ever do this, except in the rare truly unsurvivable situation. This does not read as impressive to me. It reads as an issue with judgment. Does this make you trust them more or less? Am I being too harsh? #DoctorsofInstagram #surgery #surgeon #medicaleducation #medicine
He looks awake, which is exactly why so many peopl He looks awake, which is exactly why so many people think the CPR is the mistake. It isn’t. The real mistake is stopping before there’s a pulse. One of the strangest things in resuscitation is that good CPR can push enough blood to the brain to wake someone up even while they’re still in cardiac arrest. Most people watching this get it wrong at first. #medicaleducation #doctorsofinstagram #emergencymedicine #cpr #medicine
A baby is found to have his twin brother growing i A baby is found to have his twin brother growing inside his belly. Doctors recommend surgery before it becomes dangerous. But to the parents, this is not something to remove. This is their son. When protecting a baby conflicts with what a family believes is right, what comes first? What would you do as the doctor or the parent? #medicine #medicaleducation #doctors #surgery #healthcare
These two babies look shockingly alike. Only one i These two babies look shockingly alike. Only one is human. One can already grip onto its mother and start life like a tiny climber. The other is built very differently from day one. The giveaway is in the hands and feet. So what are A and B? #animals #science #biology #animalfacts #humanbody
Doctors were convinced this man had aggressive can Doctors were convinced this man had aggressive cancer. The tumors kept spreading exactly like metastatic disease. But every biopsy showed something they had never seen before… Tiny, bizarre cells. Not cancer. Not infection. Not even human. This mystery went unsolved for decades. And when they finally figured it out… it turned out to be something almost impossible. What do you think this actually was? #medicine #health #science #doctorsoftiktok #medicaleducation
God spoke to my patient the night before surgery. God spoke to my patient the night before surgery. By morning, he cancelled the operation. The patient said he was told: “If you have surgery, you’ll be with me.” As a surgeon, I still think about this. Was that a warning… or protection?** #medicine #surgery #doctor #healthcare #medicaleducation
I can’t believe what surgeons did to this hand. At I can’t believe what surgeons did to this hand. At first glance, it looks shocking almost unbelievable. But there’s a real condition behind it… and an outcome that completely changes how this hand works. This is what people don’t see. Not just appearance but function, movement, and what someone can actually do again. As a surgeon, these are the cases that remind you how much medicine can change a life.#medicine #surgery #healthcare #medicaleducation #doctorlife
A venomous lizard helped spark one of the biggest A venomous lizard helped spark one of the biggest drug trends in the world. Scientists didn’t go looking for weight loss drugs… they were trying to understand how the Gila monster can go months without eating and still keep blood sugar stable. What they found changed medicine. A GLP-1 protein in this animals venom works for hours… while ours fades in minutes. Now it’s behind a $60+ billion industry. So here’s the real question what animal do you think will steal from next to treat one of our complex diseases? #Ozempic #WeightLoss #Science #Medicine #Health
