@Deleted User Are you in school, residency, or practicing?

Its the same pretty much anywhere you can get a national emt B cert
haha no I don’t mean that I’m a med student. I was tagging @ here so you could find other med students quicker
@Alexander-IA practicing IM doc here if you have questions
Sweet, I have a test tomorrow on Kidney systems. I'll be up all night studying.
Funny how little of the physiology remains clinically relevant
What's the rundown on scars? I have particularly bad one I would like to get rid of
It's really bad tbh. It's not very large but the skin is basically a lump that's raised several millimeters and looks awful. It's also pretty painful, contact with it causes shooting pain all over my right ribcage (it's just a bit below my right pect)
Is there anything I can do to get rid of it non surgically?
It's about the size of a quarter
I'm not medically trained but I have a bad scar and experience with this. Your scar is a keloid. You can reduce it with silicone scar strips and they work really well with keloids and reducing the color.
The scar I used mine on is completely flesh colored now and all the keloid parts were flattened. They work even on old scars.
Look up silicone for reducing scars. It's used in burn units and things like that.
Np
Definitely follow the directions for best results.
👍
Please see @Deleted User question @here
Alright so this is the second time in a row that I’ve gone to the gym and it feels as if either a vein or a ligament is pinching in my left elbow

Do you have tennis elbow? Any inflammation? Change in color? Does it only hurt while under weight or when you use it normally?
not to discount in any way the dangers of ammonia gas..but the above video is actually a staged training exercise
I originally saw that as part of a FD hazmat training course, anhydrous ammonia is often present at meth labs, and in the full vid there is a series of credits at the end, noting that the video was developed as part of a training program. That being said, anhydrous ammonia is an intense irritant that can certainly kill you in a high enough concentration,
Is there anything I should tell someone who has pnemonia besides "go to the doctor"?
I can give you a ride
Wear a mask and wash your hands
@this_that5553 I'll pitch in to buy an ambulance if you can get a driver and a few EMTs.
Biggest problem with that would be licensing
Legal hurdles
How do you know they have pneumonia? @Jacob

@Deleted User Turned out it was sinusitis
