I'm a Med student and and previously licensed Physical Therapy and I really aspire to be such a clear communicator as this man. It can get very hard to provide clear explanations that satisfy the person in front of us without either getting too deep into jargon and pathophysiology or just rummaging through the surface without being clear on anything. He explained all of these things extremely well and balanced for laypeople! Good man.
@symbolsarenotreality4595 9 місяців тому
Vapor is rounded water particles, smoke is microscopic jagged carbon particles that cause microabrasions. Vapor can carry tobacco or cannabis oil for example and if you vape too much this can clog the lungs up with more material than it can expel with its mucous lining. Smoking however clogs the lungs up much quicker and of course causes inflammation.

I do tech support I always remember that explaining with jargon and abbreviations to someone unsavvy is not effective. You may sound smarter, but your message isn't being successfully received. Always remember to use simplier words that they can jive with unless they are requesting for clarification. I don't need to tell people what our system is called where we make changes to someone's access. I just refer to it as the "system" when I need to identify it.

However, the National Health Service (the UK’s national health insurance) will pay for a vape if you quit smoking.

My father was a doctor, getting his degree in the 1940s. His mentor was training in the early 1900s. He told my dad the hospital had a patient with lung cancer and all the doctors came to the autopsy, because they had never seen lung cancer before. After WWI, when every Care Package to a US soldier went with a pack of cigarette's courtesy the tobacco companies, lung cancer became depressingly common. He was one of the first doctors to make the link between smoking and lung cancer, and he sold my dad on it. (He also helped develop Resusci-Annie.)

They're correct. Sadly the WHO estimates that over 99% of the world lives in places with air quality in excess of safe limits. If people care about their health they should start taking a interest in the air around them and push for stronger standards. Indoor air quality is often worse then outside - so steps to improve it include getting rid of fragrance, making sure your kitchen is ventilated and encourage people to not smoking or vape around you or children. While it may seem 'boring' if you care about your health and those of others it's worth looking at ways to reduce your exposure.

It’s been a month and she’s still not to where she was before she ended up hospitalized. He’s so informative and kind I wish he had been there to calm our anxiety down.

Oh, now I get it! When I got COVID-19 for the first time, I was very sick for two weeks. Yet it wasn't until after the infection was gone, that I had to go to the hospital a couple times. On that second hospital visit, the nurses and doctor were suddenly nervous and rushing around, because the instruments said I had a dangerously low blood oxygen level. Lucky for me, they scanned and found that my lungs were mostly ok; it was just that I had almost no circulation in my hands. So... the hemoglobin in my hands' blood vessels was sluggish, moving less oxygen, more slowly than usual, making it look like my whole body was not getting enough oxygen; but my essential systems were still in reasonably good condition, for someone who'd endured what I just had. My body was just triaging its resources, meaning the medical instrument gave a misleading idea of how I was doing overall. And now I understand how that happened. It feels satisfying to understand this now. Thank you, Doctor.

Back in the late 80s when I was a kid, a doctor told us that breathing wintery air would help when I got an asthma attack, if it was too soon to take another dose of my rescue inhaler. So my mom had me bundled up standing outside taking as deep of a breath as I could of the cold air. It felt like it helped. But, if its worse according to Dr. Kalhan, it maybe have just been a placebo effect then. And now that I have grown out of my asthma. I love breathing in cold air, it almost has a soothing effect.
@TheGalacticGrizzly 11 місяців тому
I have asthma and I love the cold air. I have way more trouble with hot and humid conditions. So I guess it depends on the person.
@eleanastclare 10 місяців тому
Our docs have always told us if our kids had breathing problems, open the window and bundle them up! It is the moisture in the cold air that helps. Same reason a humidifier works to ease breathing. I may be wrong, but I believe it depends on the cause of the asthma or illness as to whether it works or not.
@stephanieaya3992 10 місяців тому
If you got allergy-induced asthma (like I did as a kid in the 80’s), breathing in cold air outside where most of your allegens are dead/non-existent will make you feel better. If it’s below freezing and there’s very little air pollution, all the usual suspects to trigger an attack are gone.

people are not supposed to be vaporizing vitamin e acetate though, which is the only chemical positively correlated with vape induced lung injury. it was put into black market THC vaporizer cartridges because it visually looks like THC oil, but otherwise provides no useful benefit to the product. vitamin e acetate disrupts the lung surfactants and causes the injury, but regular vaping has never been shown to do that.

Couple of quick things. As he mentions, the reason oxygen goes in to the blood and carbon dioxide goes out of the blood is diffusion because of the difference in concentration. The gasses want to equalize. Secondly, the hemoglobin has an affinity for carbon monoxide as well as oxygen.

And you will have a good pulse oximetry reading with carbon monoxide poisoning 😱
@kitkatkatsuki8629 10 місяців тому
yep, as well as it having a 250 times higher affinity for CO than oxygen

Lungs function a bit like gills on fish, but optimized for exchanging oxygen with oxygen-rich air instead of oxygen-rich water .

Chemistry. Different number of bonds and co2 has a stronger chemical bond so is less reactive hence it being used to extinguish fires.

Your first answer begs the question of what a lung without that unlucky vaping-associated lung injury looks like? Any chance you could do a follow-up?

Rewatch the video, he literally showed an xray of non-smoker lungs... You high?
@Jkizzle4996 10 місяців тому
@@just_some_bigfoot_hacking_you he’s saying the question was “what does a capers lung look like” so they probably wanted to know if there is a baseline change in a capers lung when they aren’t sick

The thing I learned with all these videos is the amount of people on Twitter who apparently can't ask a question with a proper sentence and grammar, or without being rude.
