Super educational! I can't wait for the rest of the series!
Thank you for the gifs! They definitely helped me visualize what you are saying better.
You were so right in saying that considering a common symptom as 'normal' makes it less likely for patients to seek medical care because they will feel dismissed by their doctor. This is something we do a lot a medical care. It is so easy to classify symptoms into "normal" and "not normal" instead of seeing a patient as a whole being! I've learned from that...and from literally everything you said.
I'm looking forward to your next entries 😊
Thank you so much for your kind feedback @drbubbles! And for taking the time to read my post 😁 I haven't started the rest of the series yet but I'll get there eventually hehehe
The line between common and normal is really thin and I believe we should be careful how we categoryze symptoms with our patients 😊 I'm very glad my post contributed to change a little bit the way we look at low back pain in pregnancy 🙏
I appreciate you stopping by and I hope we continue to learn from each other as well as interacting 🤗
