Doctor Reacts To Musicians&#39; Medical Emergencies

from Taylor Swift to Adele to Seline Dion we're talking about concert related injuries and musicians Health huge thank you to ship station for sponsoring this video let's get [Applause] started oh oh I hope no one's getting trampled here that's like one of the biggest things with a lot of these acts people getting trampled is obviously a huge risk factor when there's big mobs and what happens is you essentially suffer from all the pressure of the many people that are on top of you authorities say 42 people were hurt when the partition separating the lawn from a secondary stage collapsed shortly after the show began August 5th causing people to fall about 10 ft onto the concrete below wow that's so dangerous I'm not going to lie I kind of had something like that happened to me where I was in taond do and people were doing like this pileup thing that kids do as a joke and all these people got on top of me and one of the heavy guys got on top and it was so bad not only did I hear like my back crack but also I couldn't take an a breath in it felt like when I was on the F-16 I was experiencing 9.3 GS where I had to breathe in that very specific way but obviously when you're nine you're not trained to do that and you have all these people on top of you so very very dangerous Latin Pop Singer en Ry glaas was performing Saturday night in Tijuana Mexico when this drone freak accident occurred during his performance oh my God why is he holding it don't hold the Drone there's sharp objects there they always say stay away from the Drone he didn't expect for that to happen that's terrible you can get a really bad laceration lose a finger like that and I love that they blow the confetti on him still that's terrible the singer did run backstage for some quick medical attention but then returned with a bloody hand and a wow it's a lot of blood lust for a hand hope he was able to see a hand surgeon quite quickly working on the hand is is a tough job you got to be careful cuz there's a lot of very small structures that you can damage and then if it doesn't heal well the person may not have good use of their hand as members of the English rock band The Who Moon and bandmate Pete townzen developed a reputation for their onstage Antics at the end of the show Moon kicked over his drum kit as per usual except this time it was loaded with explosives oh I did not expect for that to happen arm and permanently affected Town's end's hearing explosions the human body they can't coexist hearing damage from incredibly loud noise at that level at that decibel level you're going to have significant sense of neuro hearing loss you're going to have traumatic Barr trauma to the ear as well from an explosion like that where the eard drum can rupture it's important to note that it doesn't even have to be that loud here's a chart of how long you need to listen to certain decb before it starts impacting your hearing and it's quite scary Michael's downward spiral all started when he filmed a Pepsi commercial in 1984 he was on stage as the Director called for pyrotechnics to go off all around him they pushed a little too hard and Michael ended up In Harm's Way the pyrotechnics went off and the Flames were licking right right at Michael's hair caught on fire oh my God that's not a part of the body that can resist burning that sounds weird luckily they put it out quite quickly but as far as skin damage it would be pretty significant Jackson was dismissed from the hospital today against the advice of his doctor he has both second and third degree burns of the scalp fortunately the third degree component is relatively small Michael's injuries were horrendous doctors used balloons to stretch his skin and honestly he never fully recovered and that's when he got hooked on painkillers I'm surprised they didn't start doing some sort of graft right away but I guess that's cuz he left keep in mind this is 1984 a full quarter Century before he died and he became profoundly addicted to pain meds addiction to pain medication is unfortunately common worse over the last 20 years given the really negligent role that a lot of pharmaceutical companies played in talking about the pain medications teaching doctors about pain medications rewarding doctors for the overprescription of those medications and then on top of it Hospital Systems essentially made pain uh another Vital sign and therefore if you didn't get your patient to zero pain it pressured doctors in order to control pain to a zero which isn't always in the patient's best interest sometimes it might be healthier to get to a patient having a one two level of pain than zero because you have less side effects getting them to a one or two Seline has been uncharacteristically out of the spotlight battling a terrifying disease it's hard to watch yeah she has a very very rare condition called stiff person syndrome it's a rare autoimmune neurologic condition where you get these incredibly painful spasms and I'm not talking about stiffness like you can get out of bed cuz you're feeling tight these are debilitating she was at her doctor's for a checkup when a seizure swept over her she tried to laugh it off when she felt the first signs in her fingers soon she was in the full throws of a medical emergency Brian I need you right now she's in a crisis lifter yeah ready 1 two 3 she might be spasm yeah so during the spasm also you can get pretty significant muscle damage leading to break down of muscle tissue and therefore enzymes into the blood which can impact your kidneys so a lot of issues can arise out of this he's given ative in her nasal passages a lot of the treatments that they use in situations like this are benzo diazines to relax the muscles what is thought to be the mechanism of why this happens or how this happens is this autoimmune condition basically prevents you from having one of the neurotransmitters known as Gaba which actually helps break muscular activation and cause muscle muscular relaxation so you essentially don't have enough of that neurotransmitter therefore when a muscle activates it can go unmitigated and just continue spasming away after 10 minutes she's recovered sadly she'll experience similar attacks many times as she battles the incurable disease that is an important point that it is in fact an incurable disease at the moment time for little monsters as we learned Lady Gaga has canceled her remaining tour dates and needs surgery yesterday Gaga revealed she needs surgery for a labral tear of the right hip this is uh an injury that in younger people happens as a result of a trauma in older people it happens as a result of kind of overuse the hip is a ball and socket joint inside of the hip you have the laum which is this fibrous cartilage that allows the bone to move inside of it very smoothly now you can develop a tear there but the thing about laboral tears of the hip is that they don't really heal you might be painfree from it and it might not be bothering you but they don't really heal many patients end up trying conservative management physical therapy and it does work but ultimately some patients may end up needing arthoscopic surgery where they go in and they clean out that laboral tear last year when I played this same beautiful place I was so badly injured and I remember I was dancing I was doing Sha with that big castle behind me and I was in some kind of pain I'll tell you it can be really really painful I've had patients that were so debilitated they couldn't walk as a result of hip laboral tear that might remind you the fact that there's also laum in the shoulder that can be torn mine's torn in multiple places but again with physical therapy and conservative management you may not need surgery let's take a minute and talk about ship station the fastest most affordable way to ship products to your customers these days everything in my life is getting smart

drmike to sign up for your free 60-day trial let's get back to the music as the clock ticked down to Travis Scott's arrival tens of thousands of fans crammed into the venue to see the rap star perform this was a big story concert goers told NBC news that around 8:30 p.m. the crowd began to compress and push making moving even breathing difficult Houston Police say they first received reports of people falling injured around 9:30 p.m. these days with people having cell phones how are they not contacting 911 instantly in 91 one shutting down the show instantly by 9:38 p.m. a mass casualty event has been declared and Live Nation agrees to cut the show short eight people in the crowd died that night their ages ranging from 14 to 27 yeah this seems like just negligence across the board as opposed to a single individual but at these concerts you have to be so safe because you have to think ahead sometimes you can get trapped in a situation where at that point you have no more action so you have to put a lot of forth into where you're going to be if it's safe are you going to be well hydrated especially when people wait hours and hours online electrolyte abnormalities happen sometimes people are using elicit substances very very dangerous situation Taylor Swift is giving fans a health update amid her eras tour oh no taking to Instagram on April 24th the singer captions a series of photos of herself on stage it looks like a fall on an outstretched hand tripped on my dress hem and fell in the dark backstage while running to a quick change braced my fall with my palm it was all very Mercury and retrograde Cod it interesting I will say that's also one of the common ways that people break their wrist or scaffo bone so I hope the doctor examined her hand and made sure that that wasn't the problem the show will go on for Adele the British songstress has undergone throat surgery that has been dubbed a success and a full recovery is expected it's got to be some kind of vocal cord surgery her pipes are just like hello the London bread Grammy winner underwent laser micro surgery in Boston to stop recurrent vocal cord bleeding from a benign po yeah so vocal cords are known to develop polyps which functionally can impair the vocal cords ability to function part of it is a healing process during which we're also telling patients not to speak loudly or whisper because Whispering makes you tense up your vocal cords you also want to avoid this constant throat clearing because that can actually irritate the areas as well Adele recently revealed that she collapsed backstage at her Las Vegas residency after suffering a flare up of her spinal condition at one of her weekends with the Dell shows the singer told the crowd that she fell and was unable to move because of a sciatica attack for those who have ever had a sciatic attack it is debilitating it hurts to move it hurts to cough it hurts to breathe there's rarely a simple position of comfort and the sad part is that I want to help patients in these situations and besides doing some pain management maybe some inflammation management there's not great evidence for a lot of medicine or even treatments that is spinal surgery is not great unless there's very clear evidence of nerve compression people use steroids like oral steroid medications to control the inflammation that doesn't have great evidence behind it we frequently give muscle relaxers for sciatic pain also doesn't have great evidence behind it but does make people sleepy as a side effect so people use that for that and then obviously just using regular pain control you want want to not get into the situation where you're using opioids cuz they're highly addictive and cause other problems uh as one being an example constipation for me it's about limited bed rest allowing the body to heal itself getting up and out and moving as long as you're not hurting yourself making sure that you're uh starting the rehabilitation process early and safely and you're doing some activity modification so you're not reinjuring yourself boy is it a hard condition to treat because it's all about the compression of those nerves the irritation of those nerves if you had it you know saying in a 2021 interview with the face I've been in pain with my back for like half of my life really same with me and Adele also saying that her sciatica can flare up from stress yeah so sciatica really like hits you when you're at your lowest and a lot of that has to do with when you're stressed you're also not taking care of yourself you're not sitting and resting in correct postures you're resting less often than you should so you're already prone to more injuries and when you're overworked stressed your odds are not working out and doing the preventive measures to not have a sciatic flare that's not to victim blame but it's just to know what leads up to a sciatic attack what injury led to you piecing out um when I tore my growth plate in my hip oh I wonder if that's traumatic this horrible pain here and on my lower back and in my shoulder and in my neck I wonder if those are connected I I think not I don't know why dude I'm likeing 17 of my body is like broken if it's not traumatic there is a condition that happens in an adolescence like around ages 11 to 16 called skiffy s CF slip capital femoral epiphysis where the growth plate like starts slipping off the bone it's very painful and it results in like this waddle of a walk I am very flexible my back is like my splits are Way Insane so remember with great oh my God I'm going to do a Spider-Man quote with great flexibility comes more injuries so you got to be really careful with that you know I've sprained this ankle like six or seven times I sprain this ankle like twice yeah it sounds like we have some kind of ligamentous laxity here maybe ERS Enos is a condition that ought to be discussed I'm sure it was with her healthcare professionals aot Technics are all well and good until they explode in your face during a rendition of Fade to Black hfield became confused as to where he was supposed to stand and accidentally walked directly into a pyrotechnic blast the Flames engulfed the left side of his body leaving second and third degree burns on his face arm and hand in a situation like that the face obviously is something we're very nervous about but then the hand as well because the hand can develop contractures after a burn and therefore uh make it very difficult to use one's hand and also based on the amount of body that was burned you're going to be needing to stay in the ICU due to electrolyte issues dehydration infection risk in fact we use this like score of nines to judge based on the percentage of body that has been burned to decide whether or not someone should go to the ICU here's that chart Big Boy Rose to prominence in the late '90s and early 2000s we're here because in May of 2013 he blew out his knee on stage while performing at the summer camp Fest in Illinois uh he probably HT his miniscus there maybe there is a crucia ligament like an interior crucia ligament issue as well but more likely miniscus based on mechanism of injury it was later discovered that he torn his patella God I hate when people give me histories when they're not MediCal the patella is a bone no one tears a bone there's a patellar tendon that can get inflamed and you can develop tendonitis and there's a patellar tendon hair but interesting maybe he was playing a lot of basketball beforehand during a concert in gothenberg Sweden Foo Fighters from man Dave Gro took a tumble off of the stage and broke his leg I think I just broke my leg are people booing the fact that he broke his leg are they mad at him gr returned a short while later sporting a cast on the injured appendage and finished the show Gro wasn't going to let that pesky injury derail the entire tour so he designed a massive throne for himself that allowed him to continue playing despite the injury to his leg I mean he literally Rock and rolled first aid is certainly important and five minute crafts tries to teach some I have something to say about that click here check it out as always stay happy and healthy [Music]
