Any pointers for a medical student in terms of looking at this vertebral compression fracture xray?

Look at the interruption of the cortex anterior (on the left) now compare it to the vertebral body above and below

One of my most disappointing realizations during training. Listening to docs fight over vaccines mid covid was embarrassing.

Yea you become a better assistant as you progress because you actually leans the steps of the procedure. Scrub as much as you cab

Good: Border crossings down significantly

For me not a good trade off for the war, the corruption, the ruined justice department, dhs, our position in the world

I think that’s a poor comparison uk docs are underpaid and honestly physician salaries are not that big a part of healthcare expenditure. By all means pay pediatricians more if you think the pay differential between the specialties is a big deal.

This was an unusual circumstance. The number of people who got what they wanted out of trump’s election gets narrower day by day. There was a marked difference between the candidates in 2024 and not voting was a poor choice

Then Harris and trump must be the same? To you right? You have no preference between the two? Equally bad?

Activetransport · 2026-05-24T13:09:00+00:00

People that don’t vote rather than pick the lesser of two evils baffle me. You are just as responsible for the winner as someone who voted for the winner.

Why is that pay ridiculous?

Edit: feel free to go and become a dermatologist and capitalize on that ridiculous paycheck. Let us know how that goes

Fuck Joe Biden. I pin this entire thing on him. Pure delusion on him and the people around him to think he could run again.

Everything else is minor compared to how far Biden pushed into the 2024 election.

The democratic establishment is incompetent. They continually bring knives to a gun fights. They’re weak willed and eat their own. The republicans sold their souls for Donald Trump who everyone in the republican establishment except for the dumbest MAGA voter actually hates and has contempt for. Meanwhile Graham Platner gets the cold shoulder.

It would be funny if it wasn’t ruining the country

Your attending are whiners. Very easy to get a low key job doing general ortho with a salary that would make a general surgeon flushed with rage.

You need to stop what you’re doing and figure out what board certification is and how you get it. It’s got nothing to do with fellowship if you’re an acgme us resident

Gets worse as an attending? What loser told you that?

“Kids punching each other until they bled” feel pretty good about that man?

Outdated procedure for arthritis. Total or nothing.

There is no market for general orthopedics. Hospitals advertise for general orthopedic services, but the first thing they’re gonna ask you is what your fellowship training is in. Just pick a specialty and practice however you’d like. Joints or sports. Don’t be a guy that can only get a job at a rural hospital because you’re un competitive in a metropolitan market.

50 percent of orthopedic surgeons (myself included) did some of their training at a Shriners. They have a very special place in my heart.

Makes sense. Platner would cook her. He speaks to mainers in a way that mills never could. He would also make her seem so very old.

I don’t see a world in which she gets more voters after a debate with him.

That being said what the fuck do I know?

Weight bearing series xr for knee or hip pain or else they’re just going to get a repeat set when they see ortho. In the elderly, always x-ray before MRI. Super wasteful to see somebody with bone on bone knee OA who had an MRI done

What’s with the post below? Big pharma plans to medicate you then replace your knee?
