Medically speaking, how often is too often as far as jerking off?

researching a dr for umbilical hernia repair.
laproscopic seems like a bad idea, because you're just putting more holes in the peritoneum. those are more failure points for potential hernias later on, no? compared to just one incision that a mesh is put over.

i'm in my late 20s, and i powerlift.i've been calling different surgeons and getting differing advice.

>>16102845
sounds like you're doing a good job being an informed patient anon. i can't imagine that port holes from lap procedure significantly increases risk of hernia but you do you i'm not a surgeon

I hate bureaucracy.

Anyone know if an Impella pump would be used in any way during a mitral valve replacement procedure? Just saw the story about the increased perforation risk. Was curious because a family member almost died during said procedure due to a tear.

>>16102845
It's not the number of holes that matter, but the size. In lap the holes are barely a few mm wide, which are easily sutured up, heal quickly, and are far too small for abdominal contents to herniate through. In an open procedure with a midline incision, you get a hole several cm long that compromises the integrity of the rectus sheath, thus putting it at higher risk for herniation.

i dunno i just want a sanity check. i don't mind getting open surgery if it means a lower recurrence rate in the future. ideally i never have to get hernia surgery ever again.

>>16103566
that does make sense actually. if you have a tiny hole, you're unlikely to push your intestines through it. it's very strange, reading the literature. there's data on both sides for long term pain, or with recurrence. i don't like that there's not a universal consensus.

Also in CF, Clm secretion is down and HCOO absorbtion is up
But I don't know if it's the same as CO2 coming out of the body via gas/cell exchange alongside Hydrogen for valency and as part of the NADP-H / citric acid cycle, in that it's starving the H (as well as making respiratory I guess more acidic or altering the anion gap with no K change and lower Cl) - or actually, no anion gap acidosis

>>16103398
I'm pretty much doing what you're wanting to do except the opposite where I did medicine and I self-taught data science and coding.
It's interesting and it is all-encompassing in medicine, but I'm really only doing it for career progression in medicine. I wouldn't do it for academia only. Get a comfy job with a pharma company and I think you'd do quite well for yourself. Good luck.

>>16104019
>I don't like that there's not a universal consensus
I hate to break it to you, but there almost never is a universal consensus when it comes to medicine, because everyone's anatomy and physiology is different in the subtlest ways. That's why for doctors a lot of their expertise depends on critical thinking skills and experience, rather than just bookish knowledge alone. It's why their training period is so long compared to that of other professionals.

In any case, you should expect your surgeon to:
- clearly define your diagnosis with reference to the tests or scans they've done
- educate you about the disorder, what the underlying pathology or structural abnormality is, the prognosis etc.
- offer you various treatment options including the choice to not do anything about it, the pros and cons of each, the outcomes of patients treated before, and what could potentially go wrong

This last part is where the subjectivity comes in, because there are so many factors in play even between similar studies. The doctor would recommend a particular course of action not because it's scientifically been proven to be flawless, but because he/she would have observed that it has the highest benefit to risk ratio, corroborating with observations published by other doctors

At the end of the day it's entirely your own choice on how to proceed, but make sure the doctor you see is fully transparent with you throughout the process and takes the time to addresses your questions and concerns in a way that benefit you.

I dont think I made a thread like that when I was a dental student. dont remember tho I guess its possible
>what's debt/salary like, and what's lifestyle like?
debts pretty bad bc dental school is expensive and if you do a 6 year MD program you often have to pay for the 2 years of medical school.
private practice salaries that I heard from recently graduated residents typically ranges from 600K-1.5m on 3-4 days a week of work.
Obviously lifestyle sucks in residency but as mentioned once youre done you can work PP 4 days a week and make 7 figures lol. You do need to maintain hospital privileges to be board certified so most people will take call

Happy Easter fellow Christian doctors.

Second year in a Muslim country again.
Our community medicine professor supposedly fainted (... or, in their words, fell, rolled his eyes and started speaking in tongues) and students are saying it's because he criticized visiting shrines as a medical treatment in class for first years. This criticism is exacerbated by how they think community medicine is a sham and that health education is useless, and they project their hatred of all things not-anatomy on our (admittedly lackluster) professors.
Sorry for the Easter blogpost.

The consensus would be that the human body wasn't made for powerlifting.

>>16107261
Depending on your definition of "mud slime," I might have. It didn't make my fellow students any less insane, though.

>>16107268
...so what happens when a patient dies because of the alternative medicine shit? Do doctors still get the blame?

>>16107268
just LARP as a persian lel

>>16107273
I haven't asked the more extreme ones. Most of them seem to think that praying/cupping/visiting shrines/herbal stuff works, but they wouldn't prescribe them to patients for a reason they can't identify, opting for EBM instead. Classical presentation of compartmentalization. The more extreme ones might suffer the same cognitive dissonance, or maybe only prescribe these treatments when they get a private practice.
I'm still optimistic that most of them will forgo this hideous ideology or at least compartmentalize so hard they'll be mildly competent practitioners, but not researchers, by the time we're done with med school.
Most people in my country are illiterate/sub-6th grade reading level and very religious so they wouldn't blame a doctor for using prophetic medicine. Physicians do get killed/asked blood money all the time though.
>>16107290

>>16107304
I'm curious to know which country you're from. Here in Pakistan they specifically taught us how quacks and herbal/spiritual healers operate in order to not be like them and also educate our patients about the risks of alternative medicine

>>16107316
>Here in Pakistan
Do you do anything about the inbreeding?

how many people on /med/ are brown?

>>16107273
Oh, and almost every doctor here has an anecdote about a colleague who was prosecuted (either through the legal system or tribal law, usually the latter) over "killing" a patient despite being innocent. One that comes to mind is the formula of a pediatrician blamed for treating a child poisoned by a nondescript herbal mixture that later dies in his care. Between the witch-doctor who had been a reputable source of knowledge in her community for decades and a physician in his late 20s who doesn't know what the femur is called in his native language, it's obvious who killed the kid.
>>16107316
One of these. We were taught about the dangers of quackery, it's just really badly covered and most students remained unconvinced. Many students seem unreceptive to subjects besides anatomy in general.

>>16107326

>>16107340

>>16107329
thank god I don't live with brown people

>>16107319
I'm going to hope you're not trolling and will answer your question. Yes we do attempt to educate our rural populations about the dangers of consanguineous marriages, but so far it has been difficult because of access and social acceptability issues. Basically a lot of them think that it's fake news because how come they can't see the diseases we're talking about.
However, by highlighting the growing problem of thalassemia in relation to inbreeding, we're making better progress in reaching out to the general population. This is because thalassemia is a) very common in society, with a beta thal trait present in 5% of the population, and b) a disease that manifests with physiological symptoms.
This is something I think is very important in the sphere of public health: raising awareness about an epidemic among backwards communities only works if the above two requirements are met.

>>16107326
The fathers of modern medicine were brown

>>16107361
who?

>>16107380
Ibn-e-Sina wrote the canon of medicine, the first ever medical compendium.
Jabir ibn Hayan, the father of alchemy, bridged the gap between medieval herb-sniffing and early pharmacology.
Abu Bakar Al-Razi devised many home remedies based on the principles of alchemy.

There were a lot more, but these are the more prominent names. Early physicians and scientists from Europe used to come to Arabia to study under them, where they were honoured with robes (this is the origin of the gowns worn in graduation ceremonies today, as they became a sign of being the highest educated).

>>16107359
>I'm going to hope you're not trolling and will answer your question.
It was a genuine question. I know that Pakistan has one of the highest inbreeding rates in the world and I wanted to know if anything was being done about it.

I've seen this documentary, it's a hard reality check for us. The Pakistani mullahs are some of the vilest scum to exist in our society and are a major hinderance to medical advancement in our country. They've given fatwas declaring all sorts of stuff haram, ranging from polio shots to organ donation. They've taken the worst thing about subcontinental culture, inbreeding, and inculcated it as a part of Islam.
I strongly believe they need to be culled off en-masse. If anyone wants to learn about religion they should do it based on their own reading, and not following what someone tells them.

>>16107409
>they are all Persian
what could he have possibly meant by this?

>>16102781

>DO NOT offer advice (just fucking go see your doctor)

Saar, language worded beautifully. I commend. Bloody bencholds will NOT be advised. Pls refrain from engagement all queries for consults to which advisement is to be offered in recompense. Solicitations for advice is forbidden. Bastard bigot use different words for this and think advice means colloquial. It is grammatical to standardized english in america and britian. No other superior way to state this, quite certain pass with O 100% in spoken word courses. Elegant exercise in English dearly. Native speakers are lost.

>>16107469
Explain what's wrong with the quote.

>>16107471
Nobody who speaks English as a first language considers responding to personal questions to be "offering advice". Native speakers exclusively would think this means talk about school, test, speciality, career information because that's when "advice" is wanted and offered. Answering unsolicited medical questions isn't offering advice.

>>16107409
weird how i've never heard of any of these. maybe it's because they just copied the greeks/romans and didn't really innovate anything.

>>16107459
You asked if they were brown, and Persian counts as brown. What exactly is the point you're trying to make?

>>16107484

You seem to be insinuating that persians were white. That's straight up nigger tier wuzzery lmao
I bet you didn't even know Arabs and Persians were different people until you googled it

>>16107577
You are correct in that there is a ring light and a blood pressure monitor. The reason it's so tall is that in OTs they also need to monitor all the other vitals, along with ECG and respiratory curves too. It seems to be on a broad base, which is usually a computer module and/or cylinders containing inhaled anaesthetics. There's also a backup monitor in case the first one stops working.

>modern medicine
Pretty much every scholar before the 18th century (and a majority thereafter) were basically mystics by the broadest definition. To say "modern" medicine" in any reasonable form was invented before the advent of scientific theory seems like a stretch. The heavy lifiting for modern medicine wasn't really done by medieval or early modern physicians, but by the material sciences, chemistry, math etc. I'm not saying these early physicians were quacks or unimportant, but the stuff they got somewhat right and managed to perserve wasn't really the key factor for the development of modern medicine.

Softin (Loratidine) 10mg once a day should do the trick though. It doesn't induce sleepiness and it's very safe, up there with Panadol. If the main problem is runny nose, get a beclomethasone nasal spray but don't use it all the time, only in peak pollen season

>>16108663
Also dust your home, change your bedsheets, and deep clean your carpets and upholstery every once in a while. A lot of the times hayfever is just a dust allergy

>>16108667

I get an itchy throat and itchy/watery eyes as well. I've got the nose spray but yeah only use it in peaks, I still have on/off hayfever the rest of the year (anytime it goes from being dry to wet or from being wet to suddenly hot etc)

I don't have a problem with being against personal medical questions. I have a problem with writing to the Raj Crowns Kings English Standard where this somehow a response constitutes "advice". No native speaker would consider responding to some schizo asking about his hemroids to be "offering advice". They are responding to an imbecile, they are not advising him even if was answered correctly. You could phrase it as no medical questions. And it you want to have a disclaimer that states no online diagnoses, ok. I would hope the person that wrote that initially in the OP is from India, which is pardonable. It would be a massive disgrace (to the originator) were he an ESL from a European country and having such a miscommand of the language.

Stop glorifying these by the mechanism which isn't even directly responsible for the weight loss. These are just convoluted behavioral modifiers that work by backing their digestive system up so much they can't force it down food anymore so they "feel full" and stop eating so much.

Brainlet doctors and ozempic seeking patients are kindred spirits. That is to say, retards. They think it's new and hot shit. Meanwhile Contrave exists and works better for the portly. This not only makes them less full but they have even less reward for having consumed their slop. The problem is, like drug addicts, compliance. There needs to be a long acting IM injectable for it so they don't have a choice to stop taking it.

Patients 35 and under should honestly just be prescribed one of the two stimulants indicated for obesity and binge eating disorder, assuming they're normal but you can't trust the big ones. I assume they'll go off the rails and end up blaming you for getting them addicted. Still if you had immunity from such reprocussions and there was actually a fat guy who wasn't stupid, then it's the right way to go. Intuitively it makes more sense to speed the metabolism for weight loss rather than slow it down to the point your meals are rotting in your intestines for days.

>>16110715
Depends what you mean by intellectually stimulating. Critical care specialists require logical reasoning and critical thinking skills the most because minute changes in interventions can have major effects on patient outcomes. Surgeons have the best visualisation skill, as they have to remember a ton of anatomy and then apply what they remember when they open a patient up. Radiologists have the highest spatial IQ, because they need to be able to construct 3-D figures in their brain from 2-D images and understand the position and orientation of different body structures.

If you take other mental aptitudes into consideration, like EQ and stress management ability, you often see family medicine and trauma/emergency doctors coming out on top.

im not asking for medical advice, i just wanted to post this because i have no one to otherwise talk about it with

ive had this dark lesion / discolored skin on my peepee (glans) since maybe late last summer. i got a derm to look at it last jan, prescribed me something called protopic. it had zero effect, and since then ive seen some additional discoloration over my glans. i can clearly feel my pelvic lymph nodes when trying to find them which im not used to

i have a follow up with the derm in a month. i have been so anxious about this im just mindbroken. i cant work, i dont eat right, im just so convinced that i have cancer and im going to die. did you know penile cancers that have lymphadenopathy in the pelvic nodes have survival rates of 0% past 5 years in many studies? i can feel them on both sides, clear as day

the healthcare system moves so slow. ive been a loser my entire life but i got a good job and ive been making money finally. im gonna die a loser too man, i just feel so skullfucked. and what a sad and embarassing way to go

>>16111110
I don't think you're a loser, fren

Also, if it's cancer you're worried about then I think it'd be best to go to your GP and get them to give you an urgent referral to see an oncologist.

Lap holes are tiny hence why they’re usually the go to for repair. Recovery is also 10 times easier. However as with many laparoscopic abdominal surgeries there’s always the chance the surgeon would have to convert to an open abdominal surgery which gets the job done fine but is one hell of a recovery

you guys want to talk about crispr
im convinced im going to die soon but crispr sounds so unbelievable, like some god in the machine shit. do you imagine you will see regular use of magic crispr treatments in your lifetime? like crispr to replace traditional antibiotics or targeted cancer therapy. it always sounds so exciting on paper. im cool with all the morally ambiguous designer baby genetic engineering if it

>>16111457
>m. furfur
That is fucking BS, which is why I asked for the latest research.
Why would a fungus destroy its chances by shedding flakes of the skin it inhabits?

>>16111478
>do you imagine you will see regular use of magic crispr treatments in your lifetime?
Not the way things are right now, no. Science, especially medical research, is far too deeply entrenched in politics and big businesses for there to be any major therapeutic breakthrough anytime soon, especially in oncology. Big pharma is highly dependent on patients with long term illnesses to keep their conveyor belt of drug production running, and they won't want to fund any research that would change this.

Thoughts on the dating coresident to stay at home dad pathway?

>>16111501
crispr seems relatively simple and cheap, which makes me think that people in developing countries will use it even if big pharma in the west tries to shut it down. also crispr itself might be a multibillion dollar industry bigger than current pharma.

instead of limping some poor sucker along on stupid expensive medication, you can replace that with cheaper crispr treatments but also at the same time make your money by selling designer crispr treatments for basically genetic engineering. mom and dad to be choose to make their kid male, give their kid broad shoulders 6'x height, well defined jaw and eliminate all those pesky genetic markers or whatever for alzheimers and so on. feels like that would be way more lucrative and fruitful

i read that the two main teams working on crispr commercialization in the US had a patent battle a few years ago

>>16111484
>nigger thinks organisms are smart enough to not destroy their habitat
lmao.

>>16111484
>he doesn't think it's an immune reaction to the fungus

oof

>>16111508
>limping some poor sucker along on stupid expensive medication
That's the point of it, the patient has to keep buying the medicines (which aren't near as expensive to produce as they sell for) their whole lives. For gene therapy it's a one-time treatment; once the targeted genes of the patient are changed, the cells would continue to replicate those good genes for the rest of their lives. They won't need any more therapy for that condition, and neither would their offspring.
Developing countries don't stand much of a chance of developing their own crispr technologies either. As with other medical research, it boils down to a lack of laboratory facilities and the brain drain caused by doctors/scientists emigrating to the US in search of greener pastures.
Speaking of offspring, don't you think creating a phenotypically different child to one's self would have a negative psychosocial impact on the child? As in they'd grow up knowing they have no parents, because they're genetically different.

>>16111520
>don't you think creating a phenotypically different child to one's self would have a negative psychosocial impact on the child
depends how extreme the genetic changes are. if you snipped out the chance to contract a rare genetic disease because your parents have the rare chance of giving it to you, does that make you any less their offspring?

>For gene therapy it's a one-time treatment
only if done to the embryo. otherwise, for say treating disease in kids/adults, i dont think its a one-time treatment

>Developing countries don't stand much of a chance of developing their own crispr technologies either
crispr is supposed to be relatively easy and cheap but i dont know enough details to comment

>>16111568
>depends how extreme the genetic changes are
I think that's going to be one of the reasons it'll be held back from being used in embryos in the near future; where would the line be drawn on how much genetic modification is acceptable? Answering this question would require a lot of evidence from experiments on animal models before anything resembling a guideline can be made by a designated body of doctors.

>i dont think its a one-time treatment
By one time treatment, I mean a course consisting of several "doses" to make sure the desired DNA sequence gets to as many of the target adult cells as possible. The genetically altered adult cells would continue to replicate to form more genetically altered cells. Once a certain number of cells have been reached, they will "outcompete" the original cells, and the treatment would be completed. Theoretically, you wouldn't need to undergo another course to keep the effects lasting.

>crispr is supposed to be relatively easy and cheap
It's not so expensive or difficult to carry out the experiments in a test tube; the real difficulty is figuring out how to get it to work in-vivo. There needs to be a feasible and technically sound method to help the crispr genes reach their target cells against the harsh body environment. Last I read about this, there was work being done on using viral vectors implanted with the desired DNA to go directly into the nuclei of cells.

>>16111712

The irony is that school will cause you to not be well-off. It's expensive as fuck. 4 years undergrad, 4 years med school, 3-7 years residency.

>>16111713
Medical schools treat you as a liability if you have mental illness. The school I went to had two suicides back to back my last year there. It reflects poorly on the school so they sweep it under the rug despite being medical professionals who are supposed to treat such things. I call it the Hypocritic Oath.

If it was a fungus, why does the skin get better under steroids, which disable the immune function, while actual fungi like Tinea Capitis gets way worse under the same treatment?

The biggest risk for healthcare workers is infection from needle stick injury. Be very careful around sharps, don't recap needles after use, and dispose them in the sharps bin immediately. Also check your Hep B titre and get a booster shot if needed. Assess for HIV risk in patients by asking them if they're a faggot, a whore, or both while taking the history.

Other than that there shouldn't be much to be worried about. Wash your hands before and after examining patients and before going to eat. Wear a mask if you work in the respiratory ward, you don't know what germs might be floating around.

None, because AI cannot take liability for medical errors.
The algorithms and guidelines we currently have are based on observation rather than experimentation, and as it goes humans are a very diverse species that have minute anatomical and physiological differences from person to person. There are many situations where doctors can't find the answers to their clinical queries in textbooks or research papers, and they have to proceed on critical thought. If anything goes wrong, it's also their responsibility to explain themselves in a medical tribunal and take responsibility for their actions. This is something a computer simply cannot do, unless we somehow develop AI to the point where it develops sentience (by which time it won't matter anyways because humans would already have been replaced).

Edge cases are a huge problem. Driving should have made this abundantly clear, but system complexity essentially means these models operates well below 10^-6 % of all possible states. Environment models use heuristics to pretend this isn't the case, but there is essentially no denoising in the abstraction stack. It is purely unmitigated risk. This is the sort of thing insurance companies hate to hear.

>doctors are just applying algorithms and guidelines
good doctors don't practice like that

guidelines are the bare minimum and are most often not applicable. Patients are way too unique. The proof is in the pudding - if guidelines and algorithms were so important they wouldn't be updated every 5 years (at beast), they'd just have figured it out the first time around. Guidelines constantly being updated also indicates that there is no clear answer anyways.
Also, guidelines are as good as the evidence their based on - and evidence in medicine is garbage.

Not saying capitalists won't replace doctors with AI bots, but unless the AI possesses AGI then human doctors will still be better than just a bot looking at blood work (also often irrelevant) and algorithms
medicine is 80% the patient doctor interaction and 20% all other shit.

Based, thanks Doc

>patient self medicates on amoxicillin (an antibiotic) whenever they get the common cold (viral infection).
>then they self medicate on lansoprazole (stomach ulcer/sever reflux medication) for "tummy pain"
just third worlder things.
btw we have no formal prescription system so the pharmacy just gives the patient whatever they ask for except for narcotics.
in that case the pharmacist just calls the doctor that prescribed it....

>in that case the pharmacist just calls the doctor that prescribed it....
They should do the same for antibiotics. A decent quality unpublished seminar study made by students in our teaching hospital found that 90% of urinary tract staph infections were VRSA. Likely very distorted as most UTI patients self-medicate with OTC amoxicillin and only go to the hospital if it doesn't work.

Is parapsilosis (as in candida parasilosis) like psilocybin like an infection or disease etc (the sis) is it a psilocybin

Can I make a final wish? Before you say yes, please piss in this cup for me

Would you like to see a picture of this urine

I will show you a picture later. I want to see if it's yeast and ferments if given sugar/cellulose

Is step 2 like step 1 where there's a focus on knowing a shit load of pointless zebras

>new body arrives in our morgue
>as always, homeless man, no family, friends

I always feel bad for the former owners of these bodies. What is the quality bodies do you firsties get?

Are autopsies usually performed on everyone who dies? For example, if someone with no underlying conditions was poisoned with something common like cyanide, would that spark an investigation or would it just be written off as a freak heart attack or something?

>>16123437
>Are autopsies usually performed on everyone who dies?
No.
The example you've written would probably be referred to the Coroner's office though.

Criteria for reportable deaths:
>the person’s identity is unknown
>the death was violent or unnatural
>the death happened in suspicious circumstances
>a ‘cause of death’ certificate hasn’t been issued and isn’t likely to be
>the death was related to health care
>the death occurred in care, custody or as the result of police operations

>first date with a nursoid
>I wanted to die the entire time
checks out

i've never been on a date...

How is this possible? Are you medfags not surrounded by women constantly? It is understandable for me, because my profession doesn't have any women, and there are also no ways for me to socialize.

You should clear the pipes whenever you feel the urge. I made a mistake fucking around with NoFap, now my libido is fucked at 20 years of age and I’m in permanent “flatline” as they call it. I haven’t had proper sexual desires in years now...

That makes sense, but what if it's about delirium inside an ICU? Why are they more likely to die in an ICU compared to someone who is not delirious?

B1 receptor agonists within plants in natural form
Like B2 agonists (or bronchodilators) for allergic reaction
Beta2 before Alpha1 OR after holy shit, but allowing it to work unopposed
Some types of fluorinated plant extracts for the heart but actually the opposite of the normal results! Like epinephrine at low dose

In addition to pericarditis
Tdmpgmmpmdtmaw tension and pneumothorax, restrictive pressure on the heart while pericardial pack is constrictive
^ cold weather as a source,
Risk being eg pneumonia and a fever coming as the pneumonia leaves

Delirium is sign of a patient decompensating due to an underlying condition, your brain usually doesn't just spazz out for no reason and most delir patients are older people decompensating due to some severe primariy condition, usually something metabolic, neurovascular or simply post-operativley. As for ICU patients, everyone in the ICU has a relativley high mortality rate and every sign of of further decompensation in an ICU patients tends to come with a spike in mortality statistics.
