Dr Sandra Lee I'm a delivery driver at this moment and I've noticed recently that my ears hurts wearing mask during this pandemic... I was having hard time because of it . Thank you for such a spot on advice on this matter. BTW , when I get cysts I know where to stop by !! Thank you !👍
I've also been using a couple of paperclips to attach the two loops & then I can stretch it around my head. Downside, I have short hair, but it can still pull on your hair... still better than achy ears. I still have to work (essential), so this is 10 hrs of mask wearing.
I just found a podcast talking how to protect yourself from Corona Virus. I highly recommend watching, Dr Daniels covers information about Corona virus that other doctors forgot about it or thought its not important. it.th-cam.com/video/pQpiyB_eEBM/w-d-xo.html Dr Daniels is Harvard, Penn Medical school and Wharton business school graduate with 35 y of medical experience.
Yes, I saw an article about nurses who complained the skin behind their ears was breaking down, so they started wearing headbands with buttons attached. Stay well friend.
Except men don't lk that but this is a great idea but my man wears safety glasses and he says that will all fog up so I just am a lost at helping him who has a problem with everything yet his ears are all chewed up (no lie ) from the straps
Dr. Lee, I am petrified of doctors. I get heart flutters going past doctors' offices. But you are so kind and gentle that I can listen to you and appreciate what you're saying. Thank you and be blessed.
Great idea! I really like the purple mask it's very stylish. We have ladies here in Shreveport that are holding sewing classes at the sewing center for groups of 10 or less to learn to make surgical masks and the local fabric stores are supplying the fabric to make washable and steralizable masks for hospitals, clinics and caregivers.
Thank you Dr. Lee! My daughter & I were at her Dr's. office last week. He literally scolded us for wearing masks. "Masks are not going to provide any protection against contracting any virus. Clinics in Dallas have been shut down because their staff wears masks. They are only to be used for firefighters, first responders, etc.) Meanwhile, his entire staff was wearing masks & gloves! I appreciate this video greatly. (My daughter has asthma.)
The world health organisation have stated if you are healthy wearing a mask if of NO USE and makes the worldwide SHORTAGE of masks WORSE! You should ONLY wear a mask if you are sick (in which case stay home!), or directly caring for someone who is sick with COVID-19. So your doctor is right and doctor SL is WRONG! At this stage the WHO are still pleading with people not to use masks unnecessary as there is a worldwide SHORTAGE and frontline health workers and emergency services personnel are having trouble getting supplies. I'm a volunteer firefighter in Australia and we are having trouble getting P2 masks to use when fighting fires! No other type of disposable mask is good enough for this purpose. I do not want to inhale toxic smoke and risk my life because a bunch of paranoid fools ignored the world health organisation and went out panic buying masks! P2 masks are the only type that should be worn by people infected with COVID-19 or those caring for those infected. Basic surgical masks or material masks are of no use and won't do anything, except MAYBE remind you not to touch your face, but in the majority of cases I've seen out in public, people are constantly touching the mask readjusting it, thereby contaminating the mask with anything they've touched, thereby inhaling those germs! Epic FAIL!
If you have long hair and a small face like me, try putting your hair up and then pulling the ear loops back and around your pony tail for a tight and more comfortable fit! (Depends on the mask potentially, I've found the loops are rather stretchy with most though)
The world health organisation states there is a worldwide SHORTAGE of masks and not to use them unless you are sick or directly caring for someone who is sick with COVID-19 or you're taking precious supplies away from frontline health care workers and emergency services personnel. A mask will not prevent you from catching COVID-19, they prevent people with the disease from speeding their respiratory droplets when they speak, cough or sneeze. If masks prevented you from catching it, then why are health workers who are in full PPE still catching it? Listen to the world health organisation not some TH-cam famous dermatologist! Don't make the worldwide shortage of masks worse by being paranoid and selfish please!
I wore full mask and gloves in the beginning of the crisis and people probably thought I was loco... but look now. Don't go hoarding masks, I'm using masks and gloves I bought in 2019 and haven't bought anything in 2020. Only use them when you are out in public for necessary errands.
Dear Dr. Lee, I want to say you are a very good person--I am accustomed to your office personality and it is difficult to tell if a person is "putting it down" for us. I know now because of what you are doing that you are real. The messages that you send to us are very important to our lives.🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️
Omg, that's a wonderful idea. And thank you for asking everyone to be kind to each other. Just today, in our small town, a lady on Facebook spread a "rumor" around that a manager at "a" store here had a fever for a few days and that they should close that store. The manager is fighting an infection due to surgery! It's unreal the panic this rumor started and how quickly it spread. Praying for our world. Dr. Pimple Popper you are amazing! Keep up your good work.
i agree with everything you have said! Fantastic idea!! I worked as a Respiratory therapist in a hospital in Long Island NY and it is befuddling to me how people don't take it seriously to this day!! We have seen an exponential increase in cases and very serious cases where people need ventilators to breathe and the outcomes are not good. Take preventive measures and think of others!! We have become a very self centered society and this is an opportunity to do what really counts and come together. Material things come and go but the quality of a life where one helps others, is immeasurable. Please heed the precautions and be safe!! Thanks Dr. Lee for using your platform to educate! !
my mom’s a nurse & she came home today& asked if we knew how to lessen this exact pain, and i remember seeing this video on your channel, so we watched it together just now!!! Thank you Doc!!! 💖💖💖
Hi there gorgeous doc! Just wanted to say thank you!!! For petitioning for KINDNESS. There is certainly craziness out there. I’m on your team. Health and blessings to you! Heather in PA
That’s a great idea, I’ll tell my dad about that since he doesn’t like it either due to his ears lol. Hope everyone is doing ok with everything.. sending peace and love to all during this time❣️
When I would work in surgery masks did hurt my ears. A doctor I work with thought of the same thing but he sterilized safety pins, I'm retired after 33 years. I worked mainly in ER and I've have been around vial & bacteria viruses. But this virus 😷 scars me to death. Dr. Lee stay safe and be careful and healthy during this world wide quarantine XOXOXO.
You are just an all around awesome person Mrs. Lee. So very compassionate about everything you do. And very easy on the eyes if I may add. Lol Your husband is a very lucky man. Have a blessed weekend! :)
👏👏👏Lots of love Dr. Lee!! Thank you for advocating for the use of masks by everyone! We have an immune compromised infant and have been pushing for this to become public policy in Canada, where unfortunately we are still way behind on the public health front. People need to make a total cultural change when it comes to masks; “My mask protects you, and your mask protects me.” Masks=kindness💜 Yay for explaining actionable kindness that could save a neighbor, friend, or family members life.
Great advice!! I'm an RN and I use a different method, but it's only useful for those with long hair. I put my hair in pig tails then loop the surgical mask around them. This works for the surgical mask that I keep over my N95. Hope this is a helpful tip for some 😊
Dr. Lee, a first responder here. Can you offer some suggestions on dealing with skin irritation and breakouts from the constant wearing of a mask? I'm getting chapped skin and pimples in the seal areas. Thank you!
That is AMAZING advice! I’m a shortie, with a small head & tiny ears-so NEVER able to keep these on. I had never thought to improvise this way-THANK YOU! Though now that you showed this vid, I had a thought & sliding the loops on a regular headband-or spiky headband, works as well! Thanks for all the smiles, laughs, wonder & pops! 👍🏻 You’re awesome!
Thanks so much for the great idea of the safety pins. Wonderful idea. I agree with you that we should have been wearing home made masks this entire time. Yes, let’s all be kind to one another during this difficult time. We are all so stressed and just be nice and friendly helps so much. Someone was so rude to me in the grocery store yesterday morning that I cried all day. So unnecessary.
Thank you, Dr. Sandra Lee, for the P.S.A. and the many hours of entertainment. I pray that you and your family stay safe and healthy during this trying time.
Hi D. Lee :) thank you for always thinking of ways to help others. I have a small request. If you get the time it would mean a lot to me and so many others if you could repost the Mr Wilson videos. I've been trying to feed my blackhead cravings with his story, but most of the videos / links in the playlist are dead. Or maybe I am not allowed to see the videos any more since I live in Denmark and sometimes my access is blocked due to regional restrictions :( Wishing you and your family a wonderful easter :D
Very cool advice!! Thanks a zillion. I know many many people, my daughter included, hate to wear the mask because of the ear pain. This fix-it trick is excellent!!!!! You've released it at the absolutely perfect time. As with everyone I meet, speak to, and do what I can to help where I can, I hope you and yours,as well as everyone else's people stay safe and well. Just a note of thanks for taking the time to release so many beautiful videos. They work wonders at making our minds veer away, at least for a little while, from some of the seriousness the collective world needs a bit of a break from.

Very true people need to be more kind to each other. And wearing a mask is good as so. Thank you Sandra. And be safe everyone.
Very good idea , I’m going to do that myself.
Thank you very much, hope you stay safe!

That is so selfless of you! Thanks!
@@Desert1969 it's not me making them I'm a caregiver that recieved a couple of them. 1 to wear and 1 to wash.
I NEEDED THIS! I wear a mask everyday at work and I have scalp psoriasis and the mask causes a flare up/patch on my ears.
I saw a lady on tik tok and she created 2 buns with her hair right behind her ears. She wrap the straps behind them. I hope that helps.

True - masks are BS, unless you are working in surgery.
your doctor is an idiot
Much appreciated & always happy to see you, especially now! ❤

Yeah the elastic around the ear does cause ear pain. I found that out last night. lol People should have started wearing masks from the beginning.
Amen!
I think so, too, but then hospitals would have even more of a shortage!
@@B_Bodziak ikr there are nurses afraid to go to work because they have no more masks to protect them

You can also take a headband and sew a button on each side. In the old days before masks were disposable they were called a nurse's headband.

I've seen people connect both earloops together at the back of their heads with a paperclip, too.

I watched a video of a doctor in the UK excising a cyst, but nobody does it like you! We miss your work!! Stay safe!
Thanks for the message and the tip. You have a huge and loving following, so I’m glad you’re using that platform. 👍🏽
Thank you for the PSA. The tip will come in handy for many people. Thank you and stay healthy.
Yes! I have very forward facing ears so wearing those types of masks had been impossible and painful for me. This is life saving!
my mom’s a nurse & she came home today& asked if we knew how to lessen this exact pain, and i remember seeing this video on your channel, so we watched it together just now!!! Thank you Doc!!! 💖💖💖
Jupiter J if she’s at work she should wear a headband not a hat and put safety pins in the headband. Some people also use buttons. 💕
Hi there gorgeous doc! Just wanted to say thank you!!! For petitioning for KINDNESS. There is certainly craziness out there. I’m on your team. Health and blessings to you! Heather in PA
Thank you so much. This small thing will make a big difference. 😷💖
That’s a great idea, I’ll tell my dad about that since he doesn’t like it either due to his ears lol.
Hope everyone is doing ok with everything.. sending peace and love to all during this time❣️
You are such a sweet person. Thank you for sharing this info with all of us. Stay safe 💖
Ingenious!! I also saw online a nurse with a wide headband and a largish button on each side, so if you don’t want to wear a ballcap, this may help!
Great idea! I’ve seen a few ideas the last few days but this one is very minimalist that most people would likely have all of the items needed
Wow! Such a simple solution.. thanks for the tip!!! Stay safe 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Thanks!!
The Safety Pins are a GREAT IDEA ! Thank You So Much
Good advice, Dr. Lee. Thank you and stay healthy!
