thank you for this!
Gabriel, glad this video was helpful. DrC
Great explanation and great acting. I shall be ready if one of my practical examination actors will "present" with Wadell's sign. Thank you!
You are welcome! To your success...
Thank you doctor and thank you deb
You are most welcome. DrC
Exactly! You can't push on my head when my back hurts, make me lift my head or twist... Like wth? All of that crap hurts and I'm not faking!!!
That's a amazing video.. Please share more
Thank you for your kind comment, truly appreciated. DrC
Some solid acting from her! Kudos!
Hello Travis, yes the patient's response was deliberately exacerbated for teaching purposes. I will pass on your "props." DrC
@@DrTimothyConwell I think you meant to say exaggerated, not exacerbated? Also, her responses should not be exaggerated for teaching purposes: this does not accurately show someone what to look for. The responses should show us exactly what it actually looks like.
Kudos to both 🙂
Hello Malini, thanks for your comment. Greatly appreciated. DrC
Non-anatomic sensory changes or Regional sensory changes. What if the patient doesn't feel anything when you poke them on the leg? Is that a positive sign?
God bless you!
Thank you. I wish you great success in your career. DrC
@@DrTimothyConwell that's so sweet!
Thanks to share Conwell. can i take the capture of this video? i want to make the blog for my patients.
if you okay, it will be helpful using patients education. thank you-!
Right before the pin prick you can hear him say "scream bloody murder!" haha. This is a great video though for showing malingering!
Abigail, I appreciated your comment and laughed at your "scream bloody murder." Laughter is always the best medicine. Thank you for watching! DrC
@@DrTimothyConwell lol😂😂
that's amazing haha...I had to go back and turn the volume way up to hear it ha...great video
They did that all to me when my back was broke and it showed on the x-rays that my back was broke
yup... the first thing they think is that you are faking. Then, they don't have to do anything. I guess that's the motive...someone can correct me if i'm wrong.
Like when my lower back hurts I definitely can not twist left and right... Like why do they think you can twist left and right without pain? I don't understand that.
I had back surgery and it is a struggle to get out of bed don’t know why he thinks that is imaginary
LMMFAO how he whispered and told her to "SCREAM BLOODY MURDER" to funny i know he just showing examples of what to look for but just was too funny
Gonna
Pass my sea exam for sure
Congrats!
Lol, if she wasn't really hurting before 05:58 she would be after my hearing came back.🤣
When my trigger points are at their worst you better bet you can't put any pressure whatsoever on them or I'll be reacting like that! And how do you figure people in real pain with severe back issues aren't going to have a problem going from standing to sitting? You're basically saying even if they're not lying if they react too much they need psychological help? What kind of bs is this, doctors trying to play behavior analysts
Sir please where u office address please u s a
Thanks for the cheat codes, Doc. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
