- Legitimate question:
Whenever I eat apples
[2]
or potato products, I sweat a little bit
[4]
and my nipples get hard.
[7]
For a second I thought this was gonna
[8]
be a very medical question
[9]
and then it just took a turn.
[11]
(dance music)
[15]
This is one of my favorite segments I do,
[17]
but before we start reading
[18]
and responding to your comments,
[20]
I want to ask you a couple of questions.
[22]
I've seen a few comments
of people requesting
[25]
me to start selling merch.
[26]
I wanna do that if
that's what you're into.
[29]
I can come up with some
pretty funny mug slogans,
[32]
t-shirt slogans,
[33]
I can give you a shirt
that almost looks like
[35]
the scrubs with my logo on it,
[37]
donate some of the proceedings
to Limitless Tomorrow
[39]
or some of the other
foundations I work with.
[42]
And the second thing
that I've seen is people
[44]
asking if I have a PO box
[46]
so they can send questions and letters.
[48]
I've already had some
letters sent to my hospital,
[50]
I just posted on Instagram,
[51]
it's a really cute drawing
by an 11 year old girl
[54]
that was just adorable.
[55]
So if you want one of those
or you want two of those,
[57]
or you like none of those,
[58]
leave it down below in the comments,
[60]
and I hope you enjoy
this week's responding
[62]
to comments video.
[63]
Let's get started, pew woop!
[65]
Whenever I eat apples or potato products,
[66]
I sweat a little bit
and my nipples get hard.
[69]
Why is that?
[70]
I love your channel.
[70]
Officer moose, awesome username.
[73]
Your nipples get hard from
eating apples or potato products?
[78]
There's a condition known
as oral allergy syndrome
[81]
which is not exactly
what you're describing
[83]
but basically what it
is is your mouth tingles
[86]
and it feels like you're
having a little bit
[87]
of allergic reaction when you eat foods
[89]
with certain triggering proteins.
[92]
Again that can happen
with apples, bananas,
[94]
but it has nothing to do with
your nipples getting hard.
[96]
Officer moose, I don't know if
you're turned on by potatoes.
[99]
As they say, whatever floats your boat,
[101]
I'm not here to judge.
[102]
Would you be willing to do
a video on the word quiet
[105]
in the ER.
[106]
I have heard there is a secret rule,
[108]
never say for example quiet day so far.
[111]
Chaos King, you're absolutely right.
[113]
You never wanna say that
it's been a quiet day,
[116]
you never wanna say
it's been a quiet call.
[119]
For some reason,
[120]
every time you say that it's been quiet,
[122]
and you're grateful for it,
[124]
you suddenly get a lot of admissions,
[126]
emergency situations, rapid responses,
[128]
code blues, and you start running around
[130]
like a chicken with its head (mumbles).
[133]
Now I'm not a superstitious guy,
[135]
I've said the word quiet,
[137]
and I've brushed people off who told me
[139]
I shouldn't have said it,
[140]
but I see why it exists.
[141]
Mirthe Van der Heide.
[143]
Hi I'm 13 years old and
recently I saw a video of
[145]
how you can grow a few inches per week
[147]
by doing stretches,
[148]
is this possible?
[150]
What you should focus on
[151]
to grow the tallest possible
[153]
is eating a healthy balanced diet,
[155]
making sure you get enough protein,
[157]
make sure you're eating
your veggies and fruits,
[158]
I know that sounds like
your grandma talking,
[160]
but it's true you need those minerals,
[162]
you need that ability to grow.
[163]
You need to get enough sleep,
[165]
because when you sleep
well you actually get
[167]
a lot of growth hormone release,
[169]
and when I say a lot I
mean the right amounts
[171]
so you're not hurting the amount
[172]
of growth hormone you're getting,
[173]
and then on top of that
[174]
you wanna make sure you're exercising.
[176]
When you exercise it boosts your hormones,
[178]
it boosts your growth hormone,
[179]
it makes you process food differently,
[182]
it makes your muscles grow,
[183]
and all of those things will contribute
[185]
to your physical appearance,
[186]
including your height.
[187]
Two girls were born to the same mother,
[189]
on the same day,
[190]
at the same time,
[191]
in the same month and year,
[193]
and yet they're not twins.
[195]
How can this be?
[197]
Okay give me a second Teresa.
[198]
Two girls, born to the same mother,
[202]
the eggs of a mother were
artificially inseminated
[208]
via in vitro fertilization,
[210]
and they were born by a surrogate,
[213]
so they were coming from the same mother,
[215]
even though they were
born in different women,
[219]
as different surrogates.
[220]
That's my medical answer to that question.
[222]
Is that the answer you think?
[223]
Is it normal to talk,
[225]
or in my case talk and sing in your sleep?
[228]
This is pretty cool Meg
I wonder if you're a good
[230]
singer in your sleep.
[231]
Actually talking in your
sleep has a medical term,
[234]
I'm gonna butcher how to pronounce it,
[235]
somniloquy I think is the
right way to pronounce it.
[238]
It is a normal behavior,
[240]
it's usually a short lived occurrence.
[242]
I wouldn't worry about it
unless causing a disruptance,
[246]
a disturbance,
[247]
to your sleep cycle.
[248]
If you occasionally chatter in your sleep,
[250]
it's not a big deal.
[251]
Actually what you should do is record it,
[254]
and play it back the next day.
[255]
I've actually heard of some
patients say some pretty
[258]
R-rated or X-rated stuff in their dreams,
[260]
so be careful you might
be spilling some secrets
[262]
to your partner.
[263]
Robert Mills, I know medical stuff,
[266]
like stethoscope, tongue depresser,
[267]
and suppository.
[268]
What do you know about it?
[269]
I hope everyone knows what
a tongue depresser is.
[272]
People hate those,
[273]
and I get it 'cause
when people put anything
[275]
into my mouth,
[277]
when people put any kind of
medical device into my mouth,
[280]
when people put a dental
mold into my mouth
[283]
it triggers my gag reflex
[285]
and I have a huge panic attack
[286]
I've said that before.
[286]
Yes Robert you know a
lot of medical words.
[289]
Doc I'm a disabled vet.
[290]
Thank you for your service,
[292]
Thank you for your sacrifice.
[294]
I've been gaining weight since I retired.
[295]
What kind of cardio stuff doesn't require
[297]
full use of the legs?
[299]
Oh Marion this is such a good question.
[301]
Immediately my head goes to swimming.
[303]
Whenever I think of low
impact exercise that is really
[305]
good for losing weight
I think of swimming.
[307]
I assume you can swim
without the use of your legs.
[310]
I think that there might be
some flotation aid devices
[314]
that you can use to help you swim
[315]
and allow your heart rate to go up.
[317]
I know you mentioned cardio to lose weight
[319]
and while high intensity
interval training is great
[321]
and you can do that
like I said by swimming
[323]
or playing some sports,
[324]
do some weight training.
[325]
I know weight training isn't
always related to weight loss
[328]
but actually if you put on
muscle on your upper body
[331]
'cause you can use your arms,
[333]
you can burn more calories
throughout the day
[336]
which will lead to more
sustained weight loss.
[338]
So people that just do cardio all day long
[341]
have trouble losing
weight when they plateau.
[343]
Michelle Squidy, hey Doc how's Roxy?
[345]
Haven't seen her in a
while hope she's good.
[346]
Michelle Roxy's amazing
I actually just had her
[349]
stay at my place for the last three weeks
[350]
because my dad went on vacation to Spain,
[352]
super jealous 'cause I didn't get to go.
[354]
Having Roxy there in my apartment is crazy
[358]
because they're just on top of each other
[360]
the whole time they love playing.
[362]
I try to share some stuff on Instagram.
[363]
If you're not following me
on Instagram you should be.
[365]
It's doctor spelled out dot Mike.
[366]
So definitely follow me
on there I put updates
[368]
on me Roxy and Bear all the time.
[370]
Is one sleeping position
healthier than others?
[372]
Me the general rule that
I give to my patients
[377]
is you should sleep in whatever position
[379]
you feel most comfortable.
[380]
Now if you experience pain
in this specific position,
[383]
you should change.
[384]
If you experience acid
reflex or post nasal drip,
[389]
there are ways to change
your sleeping position.
[391]
So if you ever feel like you're
not getting restful sleep
[393]
or you wake up feeling sore,
[395]
that's a good conversation
to have with your doctor.
[397]
Mr. Jason Hammer, hey
Doctor Mike can you tell us
[399]
what you think about weed?
[401]
Ah marijuana.
[402]
Marijuana marijuana marijuana,
[404]
hot topic in the press right now.
[406]
It's getting legalized
it seems like everywhere,
[409]
in New Jersey where I
practice you're able to
[412]
prescribe it for a certain
number of medical conditions.
[415]
In New York they're
thinking about legalizing it
[418]
for recreational use.
[420]
Is it as bad as something like alcohol?
[422]
Probably not, but do we
have firm research on that?
[425]
No not yet.
[426]
Not talking about marijuana
for medical usages.
[429]
I think marijuana for
medical usages should've been
[432]
researched decades ago,
[433]
and the fact that we haven't
is truly disappointing to me.
[435]
Now I'm talking about recreational use.
[437]
Now here's the difference.
[438]
When you drink alcohol,
[439]
because it affects so
many parts of your body,
[443]
gives you hangovers,
[444]
makes you throw up,
[446]
it functions itself as a deterrent,
[448]
so it limits how much you can drink
[449]
and how often you can drink.
[451]
When you smoke marijuana
or you eat an edible,
[454]
you can really do that
for a long period of time,
[457]
and you can do it multiple days in a row,
[460]
and it doesn't have much
of a deterrent other than
[462]
probably I would say smell,
[463]
because a lot of people are turned off
[465]
by the smell of marijuana,
[466]
or at least many people that I know are.
[468]
So the fact that you
don't have this deterrent
[470]
that alcohol has can
really make you consume
[472]
a lot more marijuana than you can alcohol.
[475]
Also a lot of people self
medicate with marijuana.
[478]
They have some social anxieties
[480]
and instead of facing their goals,
[482]
instead of achieving and
becoming better people,
[484]
that they can become
happier with themselves,
[486]
they blunt that anxiety by
smoking or ingesting marijuana.
[490]
So do I think marijuana is
this horrible evil thing
[494]
that people have once said it once was
[496]
and I thought it was when I was younger
[498]
in fifth grade doing DARE
[499]
and all those other drug programs?
[501]
It probably isn't if it's destigmatized
[504]
and legalized it probably
won't be the gateway drug
[508]
that we once thought it would be.
[509]
I think it's on its way to get legalized,
[511]
but that doesn't mean that it's safe,
[513]
it doesn't mean that I
recommend people do it,
[516]
I do think it has serious
medical harms that do exist,
[519]
that we don't yet even know about
[521]
'cause it hasn't been studied properly.
[523]
My thoughts on marijuana,
[524]
should probably be legalized.
[526]
Before we start labeling something as evil
[529]
or amazing we should get
our research behind that.
[532]
So that's why I'm never going to tell you
[533]
marijuana is amazing or marijuana is awful
[536]
because I just don't have the
research to show otherwise.
[538]
The big danger with marijuana
is young people using it
[541]
and it can change the
chemistry of your brain
[544]
and change the development of it
[545]
so that's obviously a danger.
[547]
But we can regulate that,
[548]
we can control it.
[549]
There are some pros,
[550]
there's also some cons.
[551]
It's about balancing that
[553]
and getting your science in order
[554]
before making a decision.
[555]
I'm still looking at the science,
[557]
I'm not an expert,
[558]
I'm looking to improve,
[559]
so if you have some articles
you want me to take a look at
[561]
drop them down below in the comments
[563]
and I'll gladly read them to improve
[564]
my knowledge on the subject.
[565]
Why do you wear two watches?
[567]
Maria thank God you asked this question.
[569]
These are not two watches.
[571]
This is a watch, classical,
[573]
I love Zenith watches
I have a few of them.
[575]
I believe a gentleman
should always wear a watch.
[577]
This is a fitness tracker.
[579]
It's a Fitbit.
[580]
This is what I use to track my steps,
[582]
my heart rate,
[583]
I do some exercises on a Peloton bike,
[587]
so I'm not wearing two watches,
[588]
I wear a fitness tracker and a watch.
[590]
Genital herpes, there's
no way your username
[592]
is genital herpes that's crazy.
[594]
Hey Mike can you watch cells at work?
[596]
What's cells at work?
[598]
If you wanna link it into the comments
[600]
so I can see what it is I'm
totally down to watch it.
[602]
Mahnoor K.
[605]
I don't know if I'm
pronouncing that right.
[606]
I'm trying my best.
[607]
Hey doc I was just wondering how did
[609]
that pew woop become a thing?
[612]
Keep doing it,
[613]
it's very cute.
[614]
So, how did this come about?
[615]
My videographer Dan
Owens was asking one time
[618]
for me to make a sound,
[619]
a transition type sound so he
can move on to another clip
[622]
or something like that,
[623]
and I didn't know what
to say so I said pew woop
[626]
and somehow pew woop
has now become the thing
[629]
that I do in my videos, pew woop.
[631]
And it just sounds like a cool sound.
[633]
If you guys wanna send me some DM's
[636]
of you guys going pew-woop,
[638]
I will repost them on my Instagram
[639]
'cause I just think it's cool, pew woop.
[641]

[660]

[661]
