Why Cat Bites Are Actually So Dangerous | RTC 35

what is with the lack lackluster PE whoops lately are you okay lackluster PE whoops PE is there anything I can do to stop drooling while I sleep stop thinking about bear that in my medical world I've seen that the most people drool because they think about bear no um I I would want to know why you're drooling a lot of times people drool because they're mouth breathing and it has something to do with a blockage in the nose and that could be something that's treatable with medications due to an allergy or something like that or it could be anatomical there's polyps that can develop in that area you can have a deviated septum and as a result you're constantly mouth breathing which causes you to drool and wake up dry mouth dry mucous membranes discomfort your throat feels like sandpaper you get sick more often you don't get good quality sleep you could have sleep apnea you could snore so breathing through your nose while you're sleeping is actually optimal how can I make a scar disappear there's different levels to this depending on how aggressive you want to be the earlier you start intervening in the healing process the better outcomes you're going to get and this starts with just keeping wounds covered as a start that's a very important part of it also depending on how open the wound is will'll decide how bad the scar is in in some instances it might be better to get your wound sutured especially by someone who's like a plastic surgeon if it's in a visible area next you have some topical options there are all sorts of different creams out there that can help with scars the next level of it can be actually cosmetic procedures where you go into to see a dermatologist to get some laser treatments and these laser treatments can actually resurface the skin allowing the scar to look less visible and then the final level is actually there's scar revision surgery where uniquely because of our vision you could actually do a unique type of Scar called a zcar where it tricks your eye into not seeing the scar it's called a z suture or a z scar really cool stuff in fact Dr Dr bonali Who you've seen on this channel has actually done a good amount of pro bono scar work including one young boy who is attacked by a dog in protecting his little sister and Dr bonali had his scars go from this to this truly amazing work Roy Hensen I've heard that if you have toenail fungus peeing on your toes in the shower will kill the fungus is this true nope it's not true and actually toenail fungus is notoriously hard to get rid of in fact there are some topical anti-fungal medications that you could use you have to use them for like a really long time I'm talking basically a year and even then if you use it perfectly it still may not work but then if you go the oral route and you take oral antifungal medication it is more likely to work but then there are more likely chance of you having a side effect how do I ensure healthy beard growth I think it's about keeping the area well moisturized clean you really want to avoid foliculitis because that can damage a beard but in reality a lot of the supplements and Miracle promises that exist for Beard stuff literally just condition the actual hair they don't actually facilitate healthier growth I've actually struggled with my beard in the past because I've had kind of some patchy areas and if you want me to I have considered doing a hair transplant on my beard I forgot where I have the little spot here I was thinking about taking some facial hair from here and putting it here to complete my beard not because I care at all what my beard really looks like at this point in my life but I think it would be a cool experiment for you to see how we can actually transplant actual hair follicles from here to here I was going to do that a couple years ago but because I was boxing I couldn't sweat for multiple weeks on end while this procedure was ongoing so I couldn't do it but if you want me to do it let me know in the comments who would survive longer in the wild you or bear me easily even though I'm scared of insects and bugs and all that no don't do it no Bear's a chicken I would know how to like run and hide and be a proper prey I I'm a good prey he's bad prey he'll like say what's up to the predator although he might be like one of those deer that become friends with the cheetah I just got a new cat she's really playful but I'm afraid of getting hurt if she bites or scratches my hand really badly is there a real risk of that or am I overreacting okay you're actually not overreacting cat bites can be really problematic there was a Mayo Clinic study that showed one in three people that got bitten by a cat ended up getting hospitalized for it 2third of the people that were Hospital Iz ended up needing surgery the reason why I think cat bites are more problematic unlike dogs who have these blunted teeth and larger teeth that cause a lot of bleeding cat teeth are more pinpoint and sharp and go deeper so they actually seed the bacteria deep inside the body sometimes into the joint or into the tendon sheath and as a result that bacteria gets trapped in there and spreads causing a potential skin infection cellulitis into the joint a septic arthritis or worse off spreading and seeding throughout the blood causing a septicemia or sepsis so the reason for that and it's kind of similar to dog bites is there's a bacteria in cat's mouths called pastorella it's a serious bacteria that requires antibiotics don't sleep on cat bites also there's Cat Scratch Fever there's even things from kitty litter and why we talk about uh pregnant women not changing K kitty litter because of how problematic that could be there's all sorts of cat related illnesses in fact maybe I should do a whole video on that but then the cat people will come for me I drink two to three cups of coffee a day if I stop drinking for a day get a headache what can I do to stop the headaches there is a condition called caffeine withdrawal headache and it usually comes on pretty quickly when your body gets used to essentially developing a tolerance or a dependence on caffeine where if you don't have caffeine over a period of 36 48 Hours the blood vessels in your brain are thought to swallow a little bit because the lack of caffeine and when they swell that pressure increases and you start getting one of these withdrawal headaches that's the proposed mechanism it's not 100% proven but usually just having one cup of coffee on your off day will decrease the sensation of that headache if it is caused by a caffeine withdrawal what's cool about caffeine is that while your body does build up a tolerance getting your body to get rid of that tolerance is a fairly quick process meaning just doing a few days without coffee will allow your body to get a really strong kick of caffeine on the fourth or fifth day when you actually reintroduce it pretty cool stuff we've learned that through athletic trials Emma is it possible to cure vertigo it can be treated it really depends on what the cause of vertigo is because while vertigo is labeled as a condition there's a lot of conditions that cause vertigo and I like to consider vertigo more of a symptom very commonly I have patients come in with a condition called bppv benign positional paroxysmal vertigo and this happens quite frequently when someone changes head positions really quickly where the little crystals inside their semicircular canals are kind of stuck or misplaced and as a result they experience this really severe sensation of vertigo that is shortl lasting but is triggered by some unique head movements it's benign meaning it's not bad it's positional based on the position and paroxysmal means it doesn't happen all the time and for that we actually do a a maneuver called an Epley maneuver where we can teach you to do it in the office or you could do it yourself at home where you aim to reposition those crystals in your ear and can actually help battle some of those symptoms of vertigo but that's not the only form of vertigo there's a lot is there health risk to riding roller coasters or going going to haunted houses where your heart rate spikes to super high levels I would say there are probably health risks more musco skeletal than anything being on a roller coaster like jamming your neck around unless you have a pre-existing heart condition or something but if you're an average healthy person having your heart rate go up is kind of physiologic when I say physiologic that means it's normal it's not normal to have your heart rate go up to 150 160 as an adult if you're at rest but if you're in the process of being scared or you're running it is normal for it to go up there that's called physiologic heart rate range that's why when someone measures their blood pressure like standing and talking to somebody I say that's not a resting blood pressure measurement so I can't diagnose you with hypertension off of that I need you to sit still relax for 5 minutes and do it properly as the CDC does it only then can you get a proper resting blood pressure cuz that's what I'm interested in not the fact that your blood pressure adjusts to whatever exercise or physiologic condition that your body is experiencing is it theoretically popular to exercise so much and burn so many calories that you stop pooping no because there's components that you have to excrete that's why it's called excretion the more fibrous Foods you contain the more stool bulking supplements you take the bigger your stools can be and sometimes that's beneficial sometimes it's problematic it really depends person to person this is why fiber supplements for some people can help get rid of constipation and others it can cause constipation so you got to be really careful and uh tow that line very gently can stress cause acne stress can put you into a pro-inflammatory state so to some degree can cause acne even if you just look at stress creating higher blood sugars that absolutely can happen from a hormonal standpoint and when you have higher blood sugars you tend to have more inflammation in certain areas that can cause some acne but is it like the number one cause of acne I would probably Venture and say no Anna did you ever wind up getting Botox in your armpits to reduce sweating no I just made peace with the fact that I'm a sweaty boy bear is a Julie boy and I'm a sweaty boy Kelly Discord is oh thank you for being a Discord member by the way joined our patreon link down below it's $9.99 but I don't keep any of that money all the money gets donated at the end of the month and it goes to a charity of your choice where we have a monthly live stream and we chat privately no one can access it except patreon members and you get to chat in our Discord all that good stuff okay sorry is there any benefit to breathing in a paper bag when you're hyperventilating yes when you hyperventilate you can blow off too much CO2 and when you blow off too much CO2 that can create an acid base problem in your blood and it could cause you to pass out but when you breathe into a paper bag you're actually breathing in the CO2 back that you exhaled so you don't lose as much of it and as a result you don't pass out as like you're not you're not as likely to pass out Sam desogus who is your favorite superhero you know I never thought about that actually I did it's my dad a user VG my wife got me an ear cleaning kit from Tik Tok that has a camera a light a rubber tool at the end is it safe to use no please don't use ear cleaning kits the only thing that may be safe to use at home that I would recommend some patients are those like ear wax dissolving drops and then maybe the bulb to like flush things out but even then I would still recommend coming into to see a primary chimon T1 from Discord what are your feelings on the Tik Tock band okay first of all we need to set the record straight no one is really going to ban Tik Tok even the the thing that's the bill that's being passed is not a ban China owns Tik Tok and what the bill that's being proposed is trying to do is to say that there should be a forced sale of the company to another organization institution that is American owned and there are legitimate reasons why we would want that sale to happen first of all I've been pretty vocal on Tik Tok being not great for Humanity from like the short form content I feel that they are less stringent with the algorithm and allow unsavory content that is damaging not just the youth but all of us as individuals I've tried to be a good presence on Tik Tok but I've gotten to the point where I might even delete my own so click here to check out the video where I debate that exact premise click here check that out and as always stay happy and healthy [Music]
