Orthopaedics is carpentry that went to medical school.
Those hammers are not a glitch in the video. Bone does not care about your gentle energy.
Sometimes you need to cut it, drill it, hammer it and fix it until the implant sits exactly where it needs to sit.
The engineers of medicine.
Everyone else leaves their tools in theatre. These ones could hang theirs in a garage and nobody would ask questions.😂

Tremor, sweating, weight loss, palpitations. That is too much thyroid hormone.
Hypothyroidism is the reverse. Addison can lose weight, but the picture is fatigue and low pressure, not a fine tremor. Cushing adds weight.
In a woman this age, Graves is the usual cause
WHAT IF YOU DUNKED YOUR FACE IN ICE WATER EVERY DAY FOR 30 DAYS?
Cold on your face is a reflex, not a 30 day reset.
The trigeminal nerve senses the cold and helps trigger the diving reflex. Heart rate drops. Facial blood vessels constrict. You feel more alert. Puffiness may ease for a few minutes.
Do it every day and you get a cold face and a habit. Not a new metabolism.
Skip it if you faint, get dizzy, or already have a slow or irregular heart.

Your gut is basically a second brain.
Not because it “thinks” like your brain.
It has its own nervous system with hundreds of millions of neurons, constantly communicating with your brain through pathways including the vagus nerve.
That gut feeling?
There’s actual neural traffic behind it.
Your gut and brain are talking far more than you realise. #GutBrainAxis
Some people think they’re just “bad sleepers.”
Loud snoring, choking or gasping during sleep, and excessive daytime sleepiness can be clues that the airway is repeatedly closing while they sleep.
That’s not just normal snoring.
It could be obstructive sleep apnea, and it’s worth getting checked.
B. Improved insulin sensitivity.
Regular physical activity helps skeletal muscle take up glucose more effectively and can improve insulin sensitivity.
One of the simplest prescriptions in type 2 diabetes is also one of the most overlooked: move more.#Exercise#Health
Q::What is one major benefit of regular physical activity in type 2 diabetes?
A. Increased insulin resistance
B. Improved insulin sensitivity
C. Permanent elimination of diabetes
D. Increased blood glucose in all patients
YOUR KIDNEYS QUIETLY RUN THE WHOLE SHOW.
They filter around 180 litres of fluid every day.
They regulate how much water, salt and acid your body keeps, activate vitamin D for calcium balance, and produce the hormone that tells your bone marrow to make red blood cells.
Most people only notice their kidneys when they start failing.
Treat them like the silent bosses they are: respect your blood pressure, stay hydrated, and don’t ignore persistent swelling.#Health #MedEd
THE NEXT GLOBAL HEALTH CRISIS MAY NOT BE A NEW VIRUS.
It may be not having enough people left to care for the sick.
WHO projects a global shortage of 11.1 million health workers by 2030, driven by population ageing, workforce shortages and the retirement of experienced clinicians.
That gap will not be solved by technology alone.
AI can assist a doctor.
It cannot replace the nurse who notices a patient deteriorating, the midwife managing a difficult birth, or the clinician working through a night shift with limited resources.
A health system is only as strong as the people available to deliver the care.

Hydration is one of those things you barely notice until you get it wrong.
Headache. Fatigue. Poor concentration.
Your body usually tells you before you realise you’re dehydrated.
The appendix is not a useless leftover.
It contains lymphoid tissue involved in gut immunity and may act as a reservoir for beneficial gut bacteria after infections or other disruptions to the microbiome.
When it becomes inflamed, it can turn dangerous fast.
But in health, this tiny organ may be doing far more than we once thought.
