@kathyharmon2093 it is not so simple that a 10 year old can do it correctly..it's not just about applying the wraps. The skin integrity needs checked as well as circulation..Pimple Popper is doing this lady a disservice..this woman must have Medicare due to her age..so therefore she would qualify for home nursing..100 paid..due to the fact it is hard for her to leave her home..or Pimple Popper could also refer the lady to a wound care center that could change the wraps on a weekly basis..the woman also needs seen by a vascular doctor..the outward signs are significant to what is going on in the inside of this woman's body and needs treated by a medical professional on a regular basis ...you don't know what the heck you're talking about ..and Pimple Popper should absolutely be referring her to Healthcare professionals that can treat this wonan..not a maybe I will check on you..and as for her son applying the wraps..not everyone is cut out to do a nurses job...hence that's why we have them instead of family members or friends to perform techniques as such..take a seat
Doctor Lee is an example to be followed by all health professionals in the United States, where we often see that people become doctors for status and not out of appreciation for other lives. Having followed her for years before she even had her own show on TLC, she has always shown a genuine interest in helping people and that gives me a little more faith in humanity. If only all people in her field were like her.
They should all make video content?. Spend time doing that and not treating people? We enjoy the videos, learn from them. But actual clinical time is the thing to admire.
Except! She doesn’t address the CAUSE….. usually lifestyle & diet……. But instead promotes Rockefeller/big pharma temporary “bandaids” for the symptoms….. completely ignoring the CAUSES.
I wrapped my dads legs this way for years after his type two diabetes got out of control and his legs blew up with huge blisters of fluid ….it was the difference between staying in the home or living in 24/7 care once he was out of hospital….miss him everyday 😢
I have been doing this for my wife for 4 years now. The zinxc wraps with compression make her legs feel so much better, lymphatic fluid with ulcers and cellulitis is terrible and very painful. I put her on a carnivore diet ( we both eat the samething everyday) and she has lost 80+ pounds and the fluid has almost subsided completely and very rarely has to wear the unna boot anymore. But she loves wearing them because it provides so much relief. My condolences to you and I am sure it was worth every second of taking care of him.
My dad has the same issues right now. His kidney have been destroyed by diabetes and the medication for years. Ontop of that ever since covid started he just gave up and his diet turned awful. He can't walk anymore after getting covsepsis.
Parent was told cellulitis and repeatedly given antibiotics that didn't help. Not until the end did a hospital said she had congestive heart failure. Couldn't walk since a fall. Legs propped up at night in the end. Sharing in case anyone else is just given antibiotics when his/her legs start retaining liquid and the yellow, peely skin starts happening.
I would rather have him for a son than the judgmental people in these comments. My lord not everyone can handle things like that. Parents can't always handle things happening with their kids either. More than once Doctors have asked parents to leave before surgeries and such because of the worry that the parent may become a patient as well. Try living an understanding before you judge people and what they can/cannot handle.
I had an Unna boot after leg surgery. It cut off the circulation because they didn't apply it correctly. Make sure the person putting it on you knows what they are doing!
Compression is so tricky. I have cvi, 2 types of lymphedema and lipedema- basically, i live in compression. After so many years you'd think I'd have it down but I wake up in excruciating pain still sometimes where I didn't wrap something right!
@@leekoss7083 She explains it in the video. It is like a "soft" thin cast with cotton and elastic wrap over. It is meant to go from the fore foot up to the knee to give gentle compression and prevent swelling. The person that put it on me (for swelling and to help the stitches stay put), just put it in the area of the incision. I swelled all around it and it was painful.
I have something similar, I hide my legs so no one can see them. Nice to know there is a treatment out there that I haven’t heard of. I’m going to ask my doctor about it
Warms your heart to know that woman isn't suffering the way she was. You know she was embarrassed and ashamed. It breaks my heart to see how the elderly are treated or not treated in this country.
My mom had congestive heart failure and had this. I massaged her feet and legs once a day. She’s been gone over 20 years. She was so embarrassed about her legs and feet. It broke my heart.
She needs HOME HEALTH CARE: a nurse who stops by 3x a week, and a PCA who is with her everyday to help eith bathing, meals, cleaning, laundry, self-care, and to keep her company. That son is not doing his job. Ridiculous.
They very briefly showed a box fill of supplies. That is very typical for home health nurses. And she said "I showed them like you told me." So she is getting home care. Her son was useless.
Some people are extra squeamish, apparently her son is one of those. So yes, if the son is honest that he can’t reliably do it, then yes, getting home health involved is a great plan.
Being someone’s child does not automatically make them required to take care of someone. You don’t know their history. He’s at least getting her appropriate medical care.
Not many doctors would travel to someone’s house who lives so far away to check up on them and make sure they were doing ok. I admire Dr. Lee for dedication and loyalty to her patients.
A mom will take care of a son for decades, but a son won't take care of his mom for a few weeks. This is why I scoff when people say "if you don't have kids, who will take care of you in your old age?"- unless you have a daughter, no one is going to take care of you.
Daughters are not a guarantee. Don't count on your children for your elder age care. People with children & grandchildren end up alone in the same nursing homes childless people do - except the people with families get the extra sting because once they're in a nursing facility, the vast majority are completely ignored -- rarely called, rarely (or never) visited.
I understand your sentiment but please people REALLY need to stop saying that. Me and my brother have been taking care of my dad for years now his legs look even worse than the womens in the video. Caring for your parents really sucks the life out of you especially if they are ungrateful and start fighting due to old people frustrations. They just take it out on the next available person which is the home health aides and the grown children that take care of them. I have not have decent sleep in 11 months now every night he needs his legs lifted and turned to avoid bedsores I developed tendonitis in my shoulders due to constant lifting and nonstop nerve impingement in my back. I am a 5.7 ft person lifting a 300 pound man this is no joke.
@@lesliemcmillan2971 This is what I do! There are many people who can't do wound care because it makes them sick or are worried to hurt their parent, that is where home health comes in to get it managed.
That’s American practice and tradition. Self centered. People in their youth run away from family and distance in older age doesn’t help. The most upsetting thing is that majority of people who immigrate after time become same…

It’s possible, if her son didn’t want to help, there might be home care nursing to help. Thru local senior services possibly? For once/week dressing changes.
When I was an Occupational Therapy Assistant student I voluntered at the local hospital, thru the OT department, to go to homes after a patient has showered to apply their wraps. I did legs, arms for Lemphodems, etc. to assit circulation. Many times family members are not interested in learning to apply then to help. I have given many, many inservices at long term care facilities teaching nurses how to apply elastic bandages to legs for circulation. This seems to work better than Ted Hose which residents do not like to wear and many times do not fit correctly.
Odds are she’s diabetic. Diabetes significantly increases the risk of vascular insufficiency. Also, if she is a smoker, that also increases the risk of vascular insufficiency. The way to overcome this dermatitis is quit smoking and get blood sugar under control with ketogenic diet and intermittent fasting. Just MHO
Stasis dermatitis due to venous insufficiency is often misdiagnosed as cellulitis. A sedentary lifestyle and other factors can cause veins in the legs to die and blood does not get up to the heart. The blood needs to circulate back up to the heart. Compression socks of 20/30 compression or higher can help if it hasn't progressed to the stage shown in the video.
Unfortunately there are way too many children that really don't care about there parents if it includes that might have to contribute to their welfare. 😢very sad!

I have Systemic Lupus. My son is my carer. I get disgusting infected and smelly wounds on my skin and he cleans them out for me and redresses my wounds. Even the district nurses were impressed with his care of my wounds. He is 34 and I don’t know what I would do without him ♥️. This “son” of hers needs to get over himself and give something back to the woman who gave him life and raised him, selfish selfish man!!
Take omega 3, this is high in chia seeds. One tablespoon in a glass of water, let it sit for half an hour. Take every day. Spend time every day with your legs elevated, lie down with legs on a bean bag. Use compression stockings.
My now 34yr old son is my carer and has been for 10yrs as I have Systemic Lupus. I get awful wounds on my skin that become infected due to my compromised immune system. He cleans my wounds and redresses them, even when they smell terrible. Our district nurses were so impressed by his care of me. I have fallen outside and hurt myself and he always gets me up as I cannot do it myself anymore. So some boys are wonderful, and mine is one of them!! Love you so much Daniel ❤
@@janiesanchez3504 are you talking to me? Do you have reading comprehension problems? I specifically said that they treat me very well. I’m an independent person and I do as much for myself as possible. But if I ever need them for anything, they are there for me. Learn to read.
My Daughter developed this condition and her legs weeped and ran liquid so bad, she went through 4 big heavy bedpads from the hospital, every day. She also developed huge blisters, those looked much like burn blisters. She had Congestive Heart Failure, caused by Pulmonary Hypertension. She passed Feb 4th 2024. I cannot express my love for her enough!!!
Honestly, this should be medically treated weekly. Not every person has family to help. In my home country, people with physical disabilities receive free professional footcare from the heath insurance.
Do they not have community nurses in the US? In the UK, people like this with wounds that need wrapping and dressing would have district nurses go out and visit them at home.
I cared for my Great Grandma until she passed away. She raised me like my Mom should have and took care of me most of my life and I returned the favor as an adult. I wore gloves and a mask. I changed diapers and wiped her and everything else she needed. This dude not wanting to apply lotion like medication and use a wrap makes me mad for Sandra. She's so used to making excuses for him; you could tell by her reaction. Maybe the son is special needs, but if that is the case she needs someone else helping her. Plus the poor doggy is obese and needs someone to take for him too.
Dr Lee has a great bedside manner; even though she was frustrated about the son's behavior, she didn't put pressure on him with her words by shaming him or being condescending. Video editing could do some work though, cuz that sure did just cut off mid-sentence.
That was absolutely wonderful of Dr. Lee, to go and see this woman. As for her son. Grow up! Help your mum and get over yourself. Even if you have to stop 5 times to be sick. That’s your mum and her life depends on it. Pathetic!
That son is such a wimp!! For heaven’s sake, she’s your Mom! Grow a pair and take care of her!!!! She changed your diapers and cleaned up your messes, maybe she still is! Disgusting! 😡
Wow he can’t even help his mom. I feel for her.
And she said the boot can be on for up to a week. Come on buddy.
I suspect that the son has some kind of intellectual challenge. We never know for sure what’s happening in other peoples’ lives.
Very sad. If the son has a learning disability, and this is why he can’t help, would there be no other family or a friend? 😮😢

That's his mother, and her life is at stake. Glove up buddy and take care of your mom!
She taught him how to use the toilet and changed his diapers. Grow up.

Yes this happened to my mother as well .
Possibly mistaken for a cellulitis

Some people just can’t handle stuff like this, it doesn’t mean he loves her les.
@originalbrat women/mothers can't afford to have this kind of problem. He is just a man, single probably. He should be ashamed of himself

I'd like to believe that too, but everyone has their limit. Maybe he can just pay someone to wrap her. No need to shame him. Blessings to all!
A primary care physician should have been able to diagnose this and treat it.
I was thinking the same thing.
Agreed. I’m an RN who knew the cause immediately
This lady will really benefit from Home Health.
Even a couple hrs a day; Morning and evening.
Exactly what I was thinking!

My Daughter developed this condition and her legs weeped and ran liquid so bad, she went through 4 big heavy bedpads from the hospital, every day. She also developed huge blisters, those looked much like burn blisters. She had Congestive Heart Failure, caused by Pulmonary Hypertension. She passed Feb 4th 2024. I cannot express my love for her enough!!!
She really cares
Curious why does this say TLC India?
Because the it is a stolen video from the Dr. Pimple Popper channel.
Im wondering why they cant get some kind of househelp for her, or maybe a doctor that could help her do those wraps :)?
Sonnet is such a cute name for a dog
If I couldn't do something myself, I would put myself in a home. I never want to be a burden on anyone.
Omg. I have seen other people with similar looking condition and its so unbelievable that this is still happening in 2024.
So are daughters
Honestly, this should be medically treated weekly. Not every person has family to help. In my home country, people with physical disabilities receive free professional footcare from the heath insurance.
What type of son is that guy? Is he slow or he forgot his mom did most of the undesirable job while he came up.
Why not get a visiting nurse?
Do they not have community nurses in the US? In the UK, people like this with wounds that need wrapping and dressing would have district nurses go out and visit them at home.
of course we do.
I cared for my Great Grandma until she passed away. She raised me like my Mom should have and took care of me most of my life and I returned the favor as an adult. I wore gloves and a mask. I changed diapers and wiped her and everything else she needed. This dude not wanting to apply lotion like medication and use a wrap makes me mad for Sandra. She's so used to making excuses for him; you could tell by her reaction. Maybe the son is special needs, but if that is the case she needs someone else helping her. Plus the poor doggy is obese and needs someone to take for him too.
Dr Lee has a great bedside manner; even though she was frustrated about the son's behavior, she didn't put pressure on him with her words by shaming him or being condescending. Video editing could do some work though, cuz that sure did just cut off mid-sentence.
“I think it’s leaky gut! I’m glad it might not be leaky gut!”
Can someone stop and explain to her leaky gut isn’t a real thing! 🤦🏼♀️
Leaky gut is real. I think Dr Lee was saying this wasn't a symptom of leaky gut, not that she didn't have it.
Leaky gut?! Oh lord she probably heard that on facebook. 🤦
It's a common saying in England Britain. Patients are told anything.
Try to arrange a nurse come once a week to do the wrap.
Toward the end of the last video, the son did agree to wrap her legs.
Nobody is washing her feet
The son needs to buck up and take care of his mom!!
It's his mom for God's sake!!
Handle it!!
That was absolutely wonderful of Dr. Lee, to go and see this woman.
As for her son. Grow up! Help your mum and get over yourself.
Even if you have to stop 5 times to be sick. That’s your mum and her life depends on it. Pathetic!
It cut off to soon.
Even the dog needs attention of its feet/nails.
That son is such a wimp!! For heaven’s sake, she’s your Mom! Grow a pair and take care of her!!!! She changed your diapers and cleaned up your messes, maybe she still is! Disgusting! 😡
Where is the son???
I use Vaseline
