These posters focus on one of the most unfortunate, gruesome and ignored realities of Pakistan. Educate yourself on how to be cautious of possible perpetrators. Teach your children about the privacy of their body and how to protect it. They're our future... Take care of them!

Step exams are about 50% totally fair questions (stuff every doctor/student should know), 30% clever questions (fair but tricky), and 20% absolutely ridiculous exotic factoids. It's this 20% that drives most of the obsessive studying. You can't get those right without hours and hours of grinding and memorization. I often wonder what would happen if that 20% were removed from the exam. It would get easier and less stressful for sure.

When I applied to medical school in 1996, lots of people (attendings, residents, some family members) told me the profession was doomed because of HMOs, longer hours, and lower pay. It's been 30 years, and medicine is still in demand, with excellent job security. Don't let the current fatalists get you down. The world will always need doctors.

No disrespect to other specialties, but Internal Medicine is objectively the most fascinating and comprehensive branch in existence. It is the de facto face of any hospital or medical college.

Beyond the obvious sub-specialties like Cardiology, Neurology, Pulmonology, Gastroenterology, Nephrology, Endocrinology, Oncology, and Rheumatology, the academic depth is staggering. We are expected to master Pharmacology, Biochemistry, Physiology, Microbiology, and Pathology at almost the same level as the MDs in those respective foundational branches.

In my experience, we have to know Anatomy, including every joint and muscle attachment, just as well as the surgical teams. While we do not perform the surgeries, we are expected to know the names of General Surgery and Orthopedic procedures along with their specific complications.

Then there is the high-pressure environment of ICU critical care and casualty emergency medicine. We are the ones managing the most unstable patients at the frontlines and making the most critical split-second decisions.

The list continues. We manage conditions typically handled by ENT and Ophthalmology. We are responsible for the complexities of pregnancy, including physiological changes, gestational diabetes, and seizures.

Even the university exams demand we act as specialists in Dermatology for conditions like Pemphigus or Psychiatry for Schizophrenia or Bipolar disorder.

We are even expected to interpret X-rays, CTs and MRIs just as well as a Radiologist in medical colleges

Finally, there is Pediatrics, where we must master the approach to malnutrition, short stature, and almost the entire spectrum of childhood illness.

Is there any other branch that is truly as vast as Internal Medicine? I do not think so.

In medicine, never underestimate the likelihood of coming across a disease or a syndrome that you have never heard of before. You're literally always learning.

Newly released Epstein emails from July 2018 show him reacting to Imran Khan’s election in Pakistan with open hostility.

"He is a much greater threat to peace than Erdogan, Khomeini, Xi or Putin, and he calls him really bad news."

@GreenDamian4 @DrAkhilX Literally everything else is the alternative. And Injectable steroids for random body aches are never the answer.

- Try to figure out the underlying cause, if it's a deficiency, correct it.

- If it's just fatigue, then rest and paracetamol to an NSAID at MAX.

Never steroids
