Advice from a surgeon: use a larger diameter needle. The 25 is good for watery fluid but if it’s a little thicker (more blood and/or protein) it won’t. Also, the hole from an 18 needle will allow it to continue to drain into the dressing.
Wouldn’t that also facilitate infection?
@@MrNictaxlord antibiotic + dressing will prevent infection
Best to make a small incision with a razor and use a turkey baster (large rubber bulb) to really suck that gunk out (or high powered vacuum, gets blood, tissue, cartilage...sometimes even brain fragments).
@@keisukesakamori antibiotics are no fucking candy
@@lemaz3571 never said it was and would never prescribed it willfully
and mind you there is a bunch of antibiotics kinds (tablet, powder, liquid base etc)
if you know the types of antibiotic you wouldnt reply that way because i was suggesting the liquid type where there is less chance of resistency
i know i’m not the only one who should be studying for an upcoming test instead of watching this video
Me no study
Trust me yout not
I sit on the Toilette and now i feel bad, because i have to study😭😭
@@marcelbecker7715 go study 😭
literally you're spot on
As an ER doc who also trains bjj. Timing is important.
If it’s right after the injury
I have drained ears 4-7 days post injury. May have to have a larger gauge needle but as long as it is still “squishy” it can be drained.
What is an "ent"???

This was on my TH-cam suggestions and idk why I watched this. But this was weirdly fascinating watching his ear go down.
Wanna come over to my place?

Haha me too

Same here
1. Wear gloves
2. Don't touch the site after disinfecting
3. You need to put a compressive dressing over the ear afterward to prevent reaccumulation. Aspirating the same site multiple times with those sweaty, greasy fingers is a staph infection waiting to happen.
If you have a kid, please let them play outside.

@@LetoZeth He's giving medical advice like a helicopter parent who doesn't let their kid play outside. I'm sick of all of these social media and big media "experts" coming out of the woodwork pretending like they give a shit.

The mental picture of this is the best
My son is a wrestler and is just getting into Jiu Jitsu. He has cauliflower ear (several times) and our doctor told him there is not much he could do because it had been over a couple days and said he would just make it worse by trying. I wish this guy had been around for my son.
Doctors don't care about anything except their paychecks.
Or you could go to ANOTHER doctor instead. Never considered a plastic surgeon ?
Wish YOU had been around for your son. Incompetent father.
@@hybridhelix88 Probably not a lot of point if he's still currently wrestling and competing in Jiu Jitsu !
You think he can exercise for you? That's not how it works buddy. Go lose the gut and extra 3 chins you got there.
60% of comments are on the lack of gloves. 20% thirsting over the guy. Last 20% wondering why TH-cam brought them here.
Lol...... yes....... I was looking at a Honda Ridgeline video??
Right and I’m all three 😂😂😂
its common practice to you them adds a layer of preventative protection for the athlete my guy. Of Couse you can not use them. Latex gloves are as cheap as condoms.
I‘m definitely from the last category. I’m so confused and I don’t know what to think about this... lmao
@@pudgylittlehamster Non-sterile gloves are really only designed to protect the care giver, not the one receiving care. If you are attempting to minimize infection then he would need to be using sterile gloves which require training to be used correctly.
This was a common event at my house growing up. My father was an Army medic and a former wrestler, both me and my brother both wrestled in high-school. BTW 18 gauge works like a Champ, hurts like hell but it works. This video is 100% correct BTW.
Bro people literally use a 18guage to pin test n that and you here sticking it in your ear props to you brother🤯 fk me😂😂
@@dreamchasers6489 huh??? Wtf are you saying??
The other commenter agrees "Advice from a surgeon: use a larger diameter needle. The 25 is good for watery fluid but if it’s a little thicker (more blood and/or protein) it won’t. Also, the hole from an 18 needle will allow it to continue to drain into the dressing."
Step one: clean ear. Step two: touch the ear a whole bunch of times to recontaminate everything.
Don't forget to put your fingers right next to the needle as you are draining it to potentially get stuck when you slip. Solid technique 11/10.
Needlestick injury waiting to happen, it didn't tho hopefully he washed his hands
Forget gloves too.
The whole time I kept thinking WHERE ARE YOUR GLOVES 😒😬
@oh hi Are you a rapper?
Plot twist: He's collecting blood of different grapplers to make the ultimate grappler.
Lol!
Baki!!!
Unimportant fact: he’s nervous
Lol 😆
And that's out Gracie's are made
Advice from an ENT practicing PA-C - after having the periauricular hematoma drained (The above video was good, I like the bigger needle idea as it drains faster, will allow for thicker drainage including blood/protein/serous fluid), make sure you have pressure packing on that ear for a few days. This stops the ear from filling up again and greatly reduces the chance for cauliflower ear, which is what you see after untreated or poorly treated periauricular hematoma. Yes it looks goofy for a couple days, but the alternative is permanent disfigurement....take your pick.
Do you know for how long the pressure should stay applied? Had my Cauliflower ear drained earlier this week and since then I continuously applied pressure with some magnets and it hasn‘t filled up again yet, so it seems to work. I just can‘t find any info on how long healing takes until I can stop applying pressure and how long it roughly takes to heal
where one get the pressure packing?
As an average-skilled wrestler in high school, seeing an opponent with cauliflower ear was always a good sign that I was about to get my ass kicked 😂
I can relate to this lol very accurate. cauliflower ear is a pain lol
In Brazil, this means lack of technique.
@Sean Francis Waters Lancaster Actually it is a common sentence said by Helio Gracie... And commonly repeated by his sons ( Rorion Gracie and Rickson Gracie ). Because if you have cauliflower ears, it's because you had to force your self out of a position with strenght, not technique.
@@vitorjjb difference in the sport. In folkstyle you sometimes have to force yourself out so you don't give up backpoints on bottom, that's where most guys get cauliflower ear.
@@Burschlag The other guy is probably right, it makes a lot of sense. Wrestlers rely a lot more on physical strength, explosive power, and overall craziness to get moves in and escapes. I train BJJ so I train with wrestlers too. It's like they don't learn any technique, they just rely on purely physical attributes.
I remember seeing a video about the difference between American and Russian wrestlers and why Russians were so much better. The guy in the video did wrestling in both countries and said Americans train a lot harder but didn't focus on technique. Russians trained a lot easier but focused heavy on technique.
Him: “Not as much fluid as I thought was in there”
Me: Faints immediately
😂😂
Ur not alone 😂
Yeah I would pass out right away
Nope not me
Well be careful when you fall because I might beat to the floor!
I don’t know anything about wrestling but my husband was a boxer in his younger years and I asked him once why he didn’t have cauliflower ears. He said the trick was to move fast enough to not get hit 😂
The only critique is that I think he should be wearing gloves... he certainly knows his stuff otherwise. 👍🏻
There is not real reason to use gloves in this scenario.
I completely agree.. ..
And to #george he is comming into contact with someone else's blood.. so yeah that's a bloody good reason to be wearing gloves
@@George-wv5wk according to whom? With a raging pandemic you’re saying not wearing gloves is okay? Being exposed to someone else’s bodily fluids can be dangerous; what if that young man were to have HIV or hepatitis? If he had an open wound on his hand he was exposing himself to a number of situations. Always be careful and err on the side of caution especially with Covid running rampant.
@@alanak7421 so what ? You can touch any blood as long as you don't have any open wound...
@@kimberpas2907 raging pandemic ? Where do you live ?
And If you pinch you own hand doesn't matter if you use gloves or not, you are already infected. The same, if you don't pinch your hand, you can touch as much blood as you want. Lol
The flesh colored gloves he is wearing for sterility are amazingly realistic!
Yes, and I love how he didn’t contaminant the area that he just sanitized.
🤣🤣🤣
@@nijooo5480 Was that before or after he touched his face and the sweaty guys head and shirt?
@@nijooo5480 so?
Lol you wrong for that one!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😉
I love the look on his face when he tells him that it’ll be a few times a day to drain it for a week. It looks like he expected it to be done with on scene.
@Kodiak Combat Collective I should have used ice, I was totally uninformed when I got it drained, only used my magnets for an hr and it came back. Then drained it another 2 times, its deflated but my ear is still f'd.
Any one going to talk about this killer having a straight face while he was getting drained
That's exactly what I was going to comment. I was waiting for a wence of pain or something but literally nothing. Fucking legend
Pause
I think he was pretty freaked out
Uncontrolled swelling can be painful so he might of just felt relief. There's probably a lot of cases of something swelling which can then cause pressure and pain in the neighboring area.
It's basically like draining puss, you'll feel a popping sensation rather than it hurting
Why the hell would I doctor not know how to do this? This sounds like something they should
What dod you call a doctor who graduates at the bottom of their class?
A doctor.
Doctors aren't even taught basic nutrition anymore....
@@airgunbubba2505 There's a reason for that to be fair.
Mostly because the last 100 or so years of nutritional "science" was heavily tainted by industry. A lot of "money making words" sort of stuff. Not too far from Dr. Oz showboating vitamins and supplements that are useless, and commonly downright harmful, to a large percentile of the populace. To extrapolate, 50$ says you don't need a vitamin C supplement. Why do I say this? Because if you've eaten nearly anything that isn't straight grain or meat for the last week, you've got enough vitamin C to keep rocking. On the other hand. Let's say you pop a capsule of concentrated vitamin C. If you've already got acceptable levels in your system. That capsule can cause some less than preferable effect. These aren't so bad for something like vit c, but for A or Iron levels. You're in for a world of hurt.
Know the food pyramid? Completely fucked.
Especially since diets, and the subsequent calorie/nutrient intake vary massively from person to person.
Most of the Daily Values stuff on your food, garbage. The amounts are still useful, but otherwise... Kinda pointless.
So yeah. Fun stuff. Welcome to the world of science. It's tedious, and can be about as reliable as a screen door on a submarine.
or go to an actual physician?
A doctor probably does know what to do about this but you probably don't need to be a doctor to do it.
i have a c'flower ear, went to the clinic and had it aspirated a couple times, then i found this video, i have been able to stay on top of the situation draining it myself, and using magnets REALLY HELPS! Thank you very much!
Hi, how tick needle do you use?
@@einarwestermannsraa4694 I used a 20 gauge needle, that is .9mm outside diameter (.035 inch). To start with, I had this done in a clinic, and the girl there used much larger, not necessary.
@@pcbondartkinda late but how many times did you have to drain it? Did it come back after draining even with compression? How long did you give training a break? I have so many questions lol😊
been a while, the main thing was to keep it drained during the day, so at least 3 times a day, the main thing, the magnets were an ABSOLUTE MUST, I made my own up with some of those little round ones and some tape. I did not have to give train9ing a break, that did not apply to me. @@glock_9ine956
From a microbiologist: after you clean the ear, don't go back over with your fingers, gloves or not. Figure out before you clean where you want to stick. You have so much skin flora and you're in a gym that one of these days you'll catch an infection. I know ya'll have probably done this dozens of times, but don't risk your health over something that's pretty easy to avoid. Great video otherwise.
So as a microbiologist, how do you explain Wim Hof’s ability to fight off E. Coli bacteria without any immune response? How does that make sense according to the germ theory? Answer: It doesn’t. The germ theory is bunk science. A dogma. Viruses do not cause disease. Viruses are the result of disease. We have trillions of viruses within our own body, used for that very purpose. Blaming viruses for disease is like blaming firefighters for the fires. They are there as a result.
@@mayeramschelrothschild3126 ur clearly not understanding the "germ theory" or rather the immune system overall. theres actually quite a few vids about it, even in correlation to wim hof
@@mayeramschelrothschild3126 can’t tell if serious or not. We all live with E. coli in our gut, it’s normal flora. In fact, low numbers of the bacteria and others make your immune system weaker. Your argument about viruses is even further off base. Viruses are a product of disease? Please tell me your expertise in virology and microbiomes.
@@mayeramschelrothschild3126 Learn the difference between viruses and bacteria, please. Also, you're dead wrong about "germ theory".
@@justinsane11 Oh ok, so the scientists testing Wim Hof were in on the conspiracy with him? He wasn’t injected with E. coli cell wall to simulate a sepsis? He didn’t control every cell within his body with his mind and breathing?
My sources? Scientists who are actually willing to follow the scientific method.
“Medical doctors are working on the germ theory of disease… But the germ theory is already weakening and is due for being thrown aside. Dr. Fraser of Canada and Dr. Powell of California have experimented with billions of germs of all varieties, but they have been unable to produce a single disease by the introduction of germs into human subjects. Dr. Waite tried for years to prove the germ theory, but he could not do so. During the World War an experiment was conducted at Gallop’s Island Massachusetts, in which millions of influenza germs were injected into over one hundred men at the Government hospital, and no one got the flu. Germs are scavengers.” - Principles and Practice of Naturopathy. E.W. Cordingley, M.D.., N.D.,A.M.
Then there is Stefan Lanka, who discovered the first virus in the ocean - which is symbiotic. He’s been saying that viruses have been mislabeled for years, but of course he’s called a quack.
“We agree with those members of the profession who hold that no germ causes tuberculosis. Germs do not cause any disease. Further, we agree that there is more harm in the fear of germs than there is in the germs themselves.” - Timely Truths on Human Health - Simon Louis Katzoff, M.D. 1921
“Rudolph Virchow, a great German scientist, repudiated the germ theory of disease. He said that disease brought on germs rather than the germs caused disease. Claude Bernard, Bechamp and Tissot - great French scientists - all disproved the germ theory of disease. In Hans Selye’s book Stress of Life (Page 205), an account is recorded that Louis Pasteur, inventor of the germ theory of disease, admitted he was wrong. Sanitation is the only factor that has reduced the spread of the old-time scourges. If the germ theory were founded on facts, there would be no living being to read what is here in written, for germs are ubiquitous - they exist everywhere. In many diseases supposedly caused by a specific germ, that germ is not present. Contrariwise, specific germs said to cause a specific disease are present in huge proportions without the specific disease manifesting itself.” - Dr. Bernarr, D.C., D.D
First time I ever got cauliflower ear, my mother (Who's an RN) tried to poke it with a needle from the back because that's where the mass of the pocket was. When she stuck the needle in, it shot right back out from the pressure and a stream of blood sprayed all over the bathroom wall. She said it was the grossest thing she'd ever seen and that's saying a lot 🤣
Does it hurt ??
@@selfmadeshawn2987 Very faintly. If you've ever had your ears pierced with a needle, it's no different level of pain.

Glad this video helped!!!
I learned this on my own but the face of the woman at CVS when I asked for needles was priceless. Said no they couldn’t sell them too me until I showed her my ear lol.
in california crazy tell them you need it for illigal heroin and they will give all you want!!
As someone who use to work for cvs when a customer asks for a pack of needles without a prescription 90% of the time we automatically assume it’s heroin the other 10% is actually a legit reason lol.
that’s odd I work at Walgreens and all we ask for is ID
@@melanieeee This was about 15 years ago in Florida.
@John J. Jingleheimer-Schmidt Don’t get me wrong! We still have them the syringes for that reason particularly, to stop the spread of diseases from reusing syringes. I’m jus saying for the most part the people that were buying packs of needles typically used them for drugs and not for something like say actual diabetes or the same use in the video. And when someone says “jus give me any size”.... we know it ain’t for diabetes...

I recommend gloves when dealing with needles and blood and DO NOT touch the injection site with your bare hands. Other than that, this was an awesome video to watch
But not latax because allergies
@@lonewolfbob3936 nitrile would be just fine.
Gloves only help if the operator is bacteria-conscious and doesn't put the gloves on with dirty hands then continue touching other non-sterilized parts of the patient. His hands were going everywhere on this guy's head who's been sweating on the floor, then to cap it off he mashed his fingers directly onto the hole he just put in that ear. I'd show this video to my GP and tell him to do what this coach did but clean.
@@w1mark275 Gloves should be skin tight. People do delicate work in gloves all the time, and this procedure isn't that demanding. The coach just needs to take a basic medic training course and learn about staph.
Fiendish toxic brain
So we have to “always always always” make sure we cleanse the area, and then we touch it with our bare hands??
That’s the way I understood it as well, 🤦🏼♀️
he's a guy, less bacteria on the fingers than a chick
@@lolbots that literally makes no sense but sure lol
Have you considered the possibility that he washed and sanitized his palms before doing this?
@@nijooo5480 that literally doesn’t matter lmao. Your doctor washes their hands and then puts on gloves. A piercer washes their hands and then puts on gloves. A surgeon washes their hands and then puts on gloves. It’s a protective barrier for bodily fluids. If he had a cut on his hand he didn’t know about and this guy had HPV or any other blood borne pathogen, the guy would get it immediately, and vice versa. PPE should not be optional when any bodily fluids are involved, it’s just common sense. Why would you want someone else’s blood or puss on your skin? That’s nasty and unsanitary
It's been a long time since I dealt with this, but I think you can also put a pressure dressing on it after draining, kind of tamponade the bleeding. Helps keep it from refilling the space. I never had it bad enough to get it drained, but I knew plenty of guys who did, I think they sometimes put the dressing.
I have caulibuds that I put on, how do you know if it's done draining/healing. I took them off a couple of times and the ear filled back up again. I even put them on after the ear filled up, which was not smart because it spread out the cauliflower ear fluid. Now I'm just leaving them on for a day or 2 after draining what didn't already harden but they hurt.
Very good approach, just as a golden standard for better practice in terms of infection control... The video should have showed the practitioner washing his hands and wearing gloves prior to the procedure and also after find the right point of puncture touching the area then clean the skin and immediately inserting the needle, as touching again the site with bare hand just prior to the needle insertion increases the risk of infection. Other wise very well done technique.
I bet you have a medical degree
i could’ve used this video in high school. one of my teammates destroyed my ear and i went to the doctor. dude squeezed the absolute shit out of my ear and now i can only hear about 60% of what people say to me.
I don't think that was a real doctor if he managed to damage your hearing. Course I have had my fair share of experiences with medical personnel doing things that they should have looked up in a textbook before attempting.
Wipes ear clean
Wipes face and nose.
Wipes ear again before poking it.
Wear gloves.
Past that. Good to go.
cauliflower ear usually happens when they don't wipe the mats down that they use to train on
@@sirnuggets9666 no, I think you're thinking of staph or MRSA. Cauliflower ear is caused by trauma; in this case, ju jitsu and wrestling.
@@elizabethgeorge168 ah gotcha, my wrestling coach wasn't very good then, no wonder some of us ended up getting it even though we cleaned our mats
If your issue is him wiping his face and nose then him wearing gloves would have made no difference at all
@@him050 lol
i worked in a medical field for 8 years.
so ill give a ''professional'' review on this.
long story short this is simply amazing. fast, prevents further damage and doesnt need a doctor to pull of
Maybe another 8 and you see that wiping a nose and use that hand holding the disinfected ear is not good.
I made the mistake of trying to squeeze everything out of my ear after using the needle to drain it. Also didn't put on the caulibud magnets for long enough.
The man just turned off all emotions to ignore the fluid being pulled out
It doesn’t hurt feels good actually. Like you’re ear won’t pop anymore.
"Always clean the area before using needle." Doesn't wear gloves and touches the whole area with dirty hands before inserting needle. Lol.
If you eat steroids in your corn flakes no one care about cloves
Dirty hands? Heard of washing hands and hand sanitizers?
He touched the needle as well
He wipes the ear before and after I don’t see the problem
@@FrostWonders1 I'm sure you don't. Probably a common occurrence for you.
I can’t lie that man looks terrified the whole time, so what is cauliflower ear? Just blood vessels bursting in the ear?
Kinda, yeah. Basically the injury to the ear separates some of the internal layers around the cartilage and lets fluid collect underneath, resulting in this characteristic swelling. If you leave it, fibrous tissue grows in there, resulting in the permanent disfigurement.
My dog had it, believe it or not, dogs with floppy ears can get it lol the vet drained it and then sewed buttons to his ear to keep the layers together so that they could adhere again
Why don't they just wear head gear
Most common with people who wrestle and fight in MMA. Look at people ears like Connor McGregor or khabib nurgamedov
@@user-fs8lz9re2q because head gear isn’t cool
I did not know you can drain that. Ive seen guys walk around with them for years lol
You have to drain it pretty soon after it happens. If you let it go for a while, the lump hardens and the cartridge scars. Then its permanent.
Most grapplers that practice for life drain it at the beginning of their career and than it happens so often that they just live it and it hardens

I believe that cauliflower ears are a right of passage for wrestlers and bjj guys. Honestly I had a bad case of this while competing in freestyle. I definitely always would recommend wearing ear protection unless you enjoy the look.
What exactly causes it?
You can get it from Rugby too. My Uncle has them real bad and they stand out even more because he has a massive head and huge ears anyway lol. He's dull as a brush too from nearly 30 years of head trauma in Pro Rugby.

As a Paramedic, aseptic technique was none existent (props for alc prep first), everything else great job. Puncture shouldn't be deep, larger the gauge the more better, draw and pressure was on point. Overall nice work
I had always thought that a cauliflower ear was permanent after an injury. Thanks for enlightening me.
Do you feel an immediate relief after having your ear drained? The video was strangely satisfying to watch good job 👍
Just did it and loved when the pressure went away
Look how clean this guy is, had my first emptying weeks ago and they put the needle in more than 10 times.
I did not search for this but I can't look away
Welcome to the gang
Tru
I drained fluid from my knee a few times. I had syringes and sterile 14 gauge needles because I raise livestock. My Dr. at the time was doing it weekly at $200 a pop. He was upset when I did it myself but I had $5000 deductible insurance. Ain’t nobody got time for that
If you don't mind me asking.. why does fluid accumulate on the knee?
Where do you raise livestock?
@@DreadMunky generally injury to the soft tissues, the joint capsule, meniscus, etc. Soft tissue injuries tend to have fluid accumulation which can be either serum, or blood etc. Think of it as bruise inside the knee.

He's just had training, so with all those endorphins, he's high AF.
So that's probably why he's just chill with this ✨
Or because he’s a fighter and is used to the pain that caused that cauliflower ear in the first place. I don’t mean to be rude, just another take on it.
@@lydiawallace7034 Yeah for sure! haha he's gotta be tough to be in the ring in the first place ✌✨
draining it like that dosent really hurt, but the pain of trying to sleep with it when it's full is too much
Actually, this happens to me sometimes without being injured bc of my autoimmune disease and it's really not that bad draining it. Once you get past that initial "pop" you don't feel anything except relief until you pull it out
I’m a Phlebotomist......That was awesome! I loved it!! 💪💪
Thank you!!
now i feel stupid, ive always thought that it was scar tissue so you would need to have surgery, id never think that it was fluid 😭💀
scar tissue develops if you don't drain it, that's why it's important to drain it early and often
I still find myself watching this video every now and then. Still satisfying to watch.
Glad you enjoy it! Thanks for the support
Feel for him he’s got a proper 1000 yards stare going on. Penny for his thoughts. 🙂
As bad as that hurts, he's probably praying that he doesn't cry on film 😄
Nah he’s not scared just how his eyes look, not a bad thing either
Trying not to flinch on camera. When you get punched in the head for a living, you fear looking weak more than you fear pain.
crom., it's got nothing to do with being scared.
The ear cartilage is ~super~ sensitive. After being swollen that bad for several days, that ear is already throbbing like a money shot and sending random lightning bolts into his head that will literally make you see colors.
Having it drained like that is likely going to feel like fire and cheap vodka, with the added fun of a needle poking around in there and sucking out what probably feels like his actual skull bone.
And I'm not even exaggerating that much.
@@nobody8328 I said he’s not scared
Why the hell was this recommended to me?
And why tf did I watch it all and enjoy it 🤣
omg 😲 why?
4:35 my man is looking at future (that face 😂)
3:20 his mood changed quick lmao
The guy with the awful ear looks so calm and focused at the same time - i like this.
This coach drained it better then most doctors i've seen on youtube
I don’t know if they’re at a gym, church, kindergarten classroom or a combination of all three.
Probably a mixture of all 3, welcome to the south
I have 7 missing assignments but I find myself being more educated by watching this
I've been waiting for this very moment for YEARS!
Guy draining it was knowledgeable. I was surprised that the fighter didn't have more pain.
It hurts a little, but there is more relief than pain. I can tell you right now his ear was probably really sore because it was so engorged with blood. It’s similar to pulling a splinter. It may hurt to pull a splinter but it feels so good when the splinter is out.
I can assume it'd hurt more if it was infected. It's not like a cyst. Then again the nerves are probably destroyed in that guy's ear from bashing it against a mat for years to feel much of anything.
This handsome man is a fighter. He probably eats pain for breakfast :D

yea^^ how did that work??
I smell something suspicious here
Child abuse
I’m so confused, “make sure you always clean the area” then you start touching it? There was absolutely no point in cleaning it
Kickass technique. Let’s put some nitrile gloves on next time though.
Didn’t realise that you can drain out a cauliflower ear. Interesting!
Hello Tina how are you doing today today hope you're safe over there?
I hope this year brings happiness and prosperity to all american and to the world wide 🌍. I'm Pollack sharman by name from Key west, Florida...If I may ask where are you from?
After personally having cauliflower ear, you can honestly have it drained by getting a hole poked or cut open (by a doctor) or drain with a needle, you just gotta to keep pressure on the ear after to keep it from filling back up. I had a doctor sew something through the back of my ear through cartilage to keep pressure. But I hear magnets work, you just can’t keep them on their for a long time because it’s bad for it to have that much pressure on it.
Everybody always make fun of me for wearing a wrestling helmet and wearing knee pads but Who's Laughing Now? Who's Laughing Now? 😅
You will always have beautiful ears 😆🤟🏻
I’m gonna guess you mean “headgear”...you must have been a walking forfeit if you wore a helmet
No! You can't make fun of me it's my turn to make fun of you 😠
I am laughing because I have cauliflower ear (a badge of honor) and you don't 😆.

Seriously cool. Guy's a powerhouse, didn't even blink. And A++ for guys taking care of guys. We love to see it.
Men taking care of each other, enjoying the goodness.
is this rare for you
@@maultie860 This is the kind of thing I like to commend.
@@Raiche58 65% of doctors are men so commend away!
@@rj6110 Let him do what he wants to do.
@@maultie860 I think that he meant touching another man and no one thinking it's "gay."
I didn't listen to a single thing he said because that man is so gorgeous
Girl in right with ya!!!

@@supremium6841 drop jealousy and envy for they make you ugly.
I should grow beard. Right now
Calm down. Relax you thirsty girls.
I always assumed it would be clear fluid in there. I never knew the ear filled up with blood, when this happens. I am glad i now know.
This man just cleaned Ubbe’s ear 😂
The dude in Blue is exactly the one i need when i plan a brain surgery
Rest In Peace(in advance 😂😂😂)
Lol!
The Dude in the blue is HOT!
Learning from a master on the fly. Solid Gentleman from my home in the hills of Tennessee!! Great content brother.
Respect to the guy who kept his eyes open. I would have closed my eyes as soon as I see a needle❤️
Change your name
@@keykey7646 lmao
The face of my man here when he said there is a second pouch... Damn.
I know it is necessary but Jesus i really dont like needles... But the most important here is to show that martial arts means brotherhood. The guys take care of each other with respect, just like an army. Really liked to see this. The needle thing i pass...
Nobody likes needles!! Lol
Had no idea that was blood....knowledge is power....
Gloves Sir, good job 💙
I was looking for calming ambience videos when this popped up in my recommendations.
TH-cam: wanna see a dude get his ear drained?
Me: okay.
Great video! Thanks! My wife helped to drain my ear thanks to this video!
Awesome, I am glad it helped.
This is the one time TH-cam algorithm has forsaken me and my phobia of needles, yet I still decided to watch it :L
Why no gloves? I would be concerned about doing this without gloves.
Absolutely. I wouldn't go to a doctor to learn martial arts.
and the previous cleaning of the area? an invitation to infection.
stop making such a big deal it's a tiny invisible whole nothings gonna happen. it's not like he is getting cut open
@@kgkbuugj that tiny invisible cut is an open door for millions of tiny invisible germs
@@benm4216 how come I have never died from tiny invisible germs every time I accidentally cut my self?
I think everybody had that one friend in high school that was part of the wrestling team, and always get those cauliflower ears. My friend Zack did, but man could that boy wrestle.
Funny story, our best wrestler in our school was named zach and he’d do basketball practice with us for some cardio and those boys ears were often more swollen than not
@@nethermano5387 that's awesome 🙂
I was watching kitties being bathed to get rid of their fleas and got this as a recommendation. Not mad at all! Really interesting!!!
Hi this was amazing, just to see the swollen ear go down. I do agree with using a few more health measures, than the alcohol wipe swabs. You did him a huge service.
I have tattoos and yet the thought of getting a shot or blood drawn still makes my legs and arms turn to jelly. 💀
haha I feel the same. I also got tats and idk why im scared on these needles lmao.
Love to see the care given here. Would love to visit this dojo.
What an absolute gentleman and champion of a coach.
"How to do Not drain ..." Don't wash your hands, Touch affected área to cure, don't use gloves, touch needle before drain ... !!
I'm an ENT doctor. First use gloves and mask (specially as we are in pandemic but also to not spit on the ear and needle as you speak), second you don't have just to drain it, you need to put stitches from the front to the back of the ear (transfixiation stitches) to keep the pericondrium (the tissue surrounding the cartilage which has the vessels that keep the cartilage alive) in touch with the cartilage, if you don't do that the swelling will come back and the cartilage could die (thus leading to the cauliflower ear deformation)
I trust the guy in the video more than I do you. All I hear are horror stories of doctors messing up cauliflower ear drainage and making it worse.
Sorry, it's just something he deals with all the time and doctors probably don't deal with it very often and probably don't care if it gets healed or not.
@@shrimuyopa8117 ok that's valid, he is not doing it wrong, but it isn't perfect either, these are recommendations from someone who actually studied it
The real old time doctors would drain how this guy demonstrates.
The MOST IMPORTANT PART 2 is to have 1" wide strips of wet plaster of paris gauze ready to compress & mold around the ear that causes the cast to press the skin back against the cartilage so it heals that way. The HARDENED EAR CAST will keep the blood from refilling into the space where the skin separated from the cartilage.
Note - immediately after the draining, the tech or doctor depresses the skin, with thumb, against the cartilage so no new blood refills the pocket while the plaster hardens. Keep the thumb pressure going while applying the plaster of Paris.
It takes 2 weeks to heal.
Then never neglect to wear head gear.
Avoid this guy's recommendation of frequent daily drainings as too much opportunity for infection & all it takes is one or two days of draining to cause that blood to harden & form the cauliflower.
If the blood happens to harden & form the CAULIFLOWER, then the plastic surgeon must resect the skin & scrape the hardened blood off the cartilage & stitch the skin back to the lobe like quilting stitches. This is most painful & expensive.
Keep in mind that cauliflower ears only look cool only as long as you are in the sport.
The lifetime effects are:
1. Painful & hardened lobes.
2. Hearing impaired by 25-50% because the blocked canal structure of the lobe does not funnel the sound waves into the ear drum.
3. Women & men (not used to it) are turned off by it. In the business world it detracts from a groomed appearance.
Of course I am relieved to had an ear cast.
I’m glad the black belt knows this. Respect
Honestly that ear is how I determine how dangerous your opponent is😂
😂😂
This is totally off base and might freak some people out but here it goes I'm an IV drug addict and we are prone to get abscesses, and through the years having gone to the ER and being treated so miserably and actually having severe pain inflicted upon me for no reason I have learned to take care of them myself I only go to the doctors for a prescription of bactrim and keflex if needed other than that I generally take care of them myself it's amazing what the untrained professional can do just like the guy in this video all it took was a little love care and careful palpating and he was able to perform the procedure with a minimum of pain or invasive scarring.
I felt the relief and my ears are fine
In my BJJ class we wear ear guards. Everyone should wear them.
@Hard knocks Montage YOU WEAR TAMPONS WHEN YA GO SWIMMING HUIH?
Cleans surface of ear to avoid infection, almost immediately touches surface of ear with bare hands and contaminants it. The most bjj bro medical care ive ever seen
All these years, I thought ‘Cauliflower Ear’ was just a figure of speech used to in place of ‘talking one’s ear off’.
Nah you get it from striking or pressure on your ears causing a rupture of blood vessels etc. If you don't get it treated like you're seeing here, it results in permanent disfiguration.
@@AoiTheLaughingMan it's basically just blood in pockets between your ear cartilage and skin.. if you wait too long then the blood obviously dries, and you got "cauliflower" ear
disinfects and goes in with his fingers right after lol
