1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:04,800 Speaker 1: Brought to you by the all new Toyota Corolla. Welcome 2 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: to Stuff You Should Know from House Stuff Works dot com. Hey, 3 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,319 Speaker 1: and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh Clark, There's Charles W. 4 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:21,640 Speaker 1: Chuck Bryant, and this is Stuff you Should Know the 5 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: podcast Audio Adventure our great subtitle Chuck, have you ever 6 00:00:30,200 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 1: broken a bone? I have not. You better knock on 7 00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: wood right this instant. Yeah, I could say the same thing, 8 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: except I'm pretty certain that I've broken my small toe 9 00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 1: several times over the course of my life. Yeah, there's 10 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,080 Speaker 1: not all you can do about that there, right, No. 11 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:47,839 Speaker 1: I mean, like I didn't go see a doctor or 12 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,559 Speaker 1: anything like that, which is why I'm not certain I 13 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: broke it. But I'm pretty certain just based on the 14 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: amount of pain involved in it. Um. But other than that, 15 00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,800 Speaker 1: you know, I've never had like a sling or anything 16 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,480 Speaker 1: like that. I was got cuts, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, 17 00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,840 Speaker 1: I was always stitched up in things, never broken back, stitches, 18 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,800 Speaker 1: leg foot, tongue, almost bit my tongue off. I've never 19 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: had stitches. Really. Yeah, Well, you've lived a relatively healthy life, 20 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,800 Speaker 1: my friend. I guess so. And I mean it's not 21 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,040 Speaker 1: like I haven't been adventure Boy or anything like that. 22 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: I've I've gotten in all sorts of REX accidents. If 23 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,320 Speaker 1: I had a brick fall on my head and put 24 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 1: my arm through a storm window and I was a 25 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: little baby. Um. I once was riding my awesome blue 26 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: and yellow mag wheel BMX bike and went to go 27 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:36,520 Speaker 1: up a curb, but my brain misfired, and rather than 28 00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:40,560 Speaker 1: pull up on the handlebars, I pressed down and went 29 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 1: right over the handlebars hard. I've done that on a 30 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 1: mountain bike. I played football. I got hit in the 31 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: head with the baseball playing baseball. I'm It's not like 32 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: I was like a milk toast or anything like that, 33 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:56,480 Speaker 1: like Bruce Willis, I wouldn't say that, just because I'm 34 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:58,760 Speaker 1: just too superstitious for that kind of thing. But I 35 00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: have not had stitches or a broken bump. But now 36 00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: I know all about broken bones and how they heal, 37 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: because they do heal, and it's not just your saw 38 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,240 Speaker 1: bones that's healing them, like the heal on themselves. And 39 00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,280 Speaker 1: it turns out medical science is basically just there to 40 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: assist a beautiful, elegant, natural process that's already in place. Yeah, 41 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 1: I think I'm just amazed at the body's natural healing capabilities. 42 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:28,800 Speaker 1: I think it's really neat. Um. I am too, Like 43 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 1: you can regenerate your own tail, your vestigial tail, if 44 00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:35,519 Speaker 1: you make it out of the womb with one of those. 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:38,080 Speaker 1: If if you lost your third nipple, it might just 46 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,400 Speaker 1: grow right back, your superfluous third nipple. Yeah. Uh so 47 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,640 Speaker 1: I guess you know, I am a few years away 48 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: from being more susceptible. Apparently, men after forty five are 49 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 1: more susceptible to breaking bones. And oh no, I'm sorry 50 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: pre forty five, right, so I'm almost in the clear. Yeah, 51 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,639 Speaker 1: And I suspect that that is you to um, then 52 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: being more active, yeah, um, because that's in men. If 53 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: you're you're more susceptible to breaking a bone. Um. And 54 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: then women are more susceptible to breaking a bone after 55 00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 1: that age yeah, when they reach menopause. Um. And the 56 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: most commonly broken bone is what, uh, the wrist, right, yeah, 57 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: the radius bone of the wrist. I guess from all 58 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: the tennis people play. I think my theory on that 59 00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 1: is is that's how you know, It's a lot of 60 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 1: that comes from trying to break your fall by putting 61 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 1: your hand out, But that just happens a lot. It 62 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: makes you wonder what bones we would break and how 63 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 1: many more bones we break and we didn't have response 64 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: to break. Well, if you or if you didn't try 65 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: to break your fall, you just break your face over 66 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: and over, I guess, um. And then in the elderly age, 67 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,040 Speaker 1: seventy five are over. According to this article by Robert 68 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: Lamb m, hip fractures are the most common and those 69 00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: are painful. Yeah, I'm sure that's like, yeah, you hear 70 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: about that lot. Very sad. Yeah, like fall in the bathtub, 71 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 1: break the old hip. Um. So there's different types of 72 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: fractures that can take place, right, Like there's not there's 73 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: the simple fracture, which is the most um like the 74 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: one you're if you're going to break a bone, this 75 00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: is the one you hope for. Um. But it is 76 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: and it may even be the most common. I don't 77 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: know if what's the most common. It's just a clean, 78 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:25,760 Speaker 1: simple break in one place only, right, and there's not 79 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 1: like a bunch of other trauma or like associated pain 80 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:32,479 Speaker 1: or or well there's probably a lot of pain, but 81 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,920 Speaker 1: problems that come out of it's just like snap. And 82 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 1: then there's a clean break that's a simple fracture. That's 83 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: definitely not the only kind of fracture. No. The dreaded 84 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: compound fracture, which I think strikes fear into the hearts 85 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 1: of everybody, is when your bone is poking through your skin. Yeah, 86 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: like Joe Tisman or the guy in the March Madness recently. 87 00:04:55,600 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 1: I don't think I saw that one. Oh man, it 88 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,840 Speaker 1: is bad. I can't They're a mirror. Neurons kick in 89 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 1: so hard when that stuff happens. There's this there's this 90 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 1: animated gift of this, the footage of the guy he 91 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 1: just fell down wrong, um and he fell down right 92 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: in front of his own bench, and there's like the 93 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: reaction of like the guys on the bench just like, oh, 94 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: they all look like they're about to faint because they're 95 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 1: like two ft away from like one of the worst 96 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,279 Speaker 1: things you could possibly see in an a live human. 97 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 1: You know, it's awful. Yeah, But those that's a compound fraction, 98 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:31,839 Speaker 1: those are kind of dangerous because they can lead to 99 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: infection pretty easily, by the way, you know, Joe, thisman, 100 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if this is true. Supposedly his name 101 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: was pronounced Theisman until college, and he changed it to 102 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:44,480 Speaker 1: rhyme with Heisman in a push for the trophy. No way, 103 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 1: I've heard that. I'm not sure. I need to look 104 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: that up to verify it. That might be a an 105 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: urban legend, could be, but I always call him Joe 106 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 1: Theisman as a joke. But either way, the he the 107 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 1: compound fracture came out of his thigh, didn't it. M 108 00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 1: I can't remember. I thought it was more like the knee. 109 00:06:00,640 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: It was gruesome, remember, like seeing it live? I never 110 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: saw it. Yeah, yeah, all right. So there's also the 111 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:10,520 Speaker 1: impacted fracture, when one end of the fracture, one end 112 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 1: of the bone is driven into the other. That sounds 113 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: pretty gnarly too. Yeah, that sounds really awful. A communuded fracture, Uh, 114 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 1: that's when the bone shatters into fragments. That's probably that's 115 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 1: pretty bad. Yeah, I'm sure fresh quite problematic, and as 116 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 1: we'll find out, you'd probably end up a tad bit 117 00:06:31,360 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: shorter if you have one of those in like your tibia, 118 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 1: because you have to get rid of that stuff. Yeah, 119 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: the bone fragments. There's the super cute green stick fracture. Yeah, 120 00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,000 Speaker 1: this one to me was like, um, the same as 121 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: imagining pulling back a fingernail. But then it retracting back. Yeah, 122 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: this is a this is among children. It's a type 123 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: of fracture specific to children where the bone like bends 124 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: and snaps, but it doesn't fully break. Yeah, it cracks, 125 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: but don't. It's like a green twig. Imagine that, like 126 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 1: if you bend it, you can't really snap it into 127 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 1: Oh that's why they call it that. Oh yeah, okay, yeah, 128 00:07:12,160 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 1: green stick. That makes sense. The old timbertoe uh. And 129 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 1: then an evolution fracture is um. Robert describes it as 130 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 1: a powerful muscle contraction and it wrenches bone, intending forcing 131 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: a fracture. That sounds pretty awful. Yeah, I looked this up. 132 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,840 Speaker 1: So basically what this is is your the muscles around 133 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: your bone. In some instances, very unusual instances, can um 134 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 1: contract so powerfully that it snaps the bone under what circumstance. 135 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:45,960 Speaker 1: So um, Normally, our muscles aren't powerful enough to snap 136 00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:52,080 Speaker 1: bone because we have um neurological control over the muscles. Apparently, 137 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 1: athletes can train beyond this point and can be at 138 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 1: risk for an evulsion fracture by pushing their muscle muscles 139 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 1: so hard that like they can make them powerful enough 140 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: to snap their own bones. And in a very strong 141 00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 1: high jump or jump um, the tibia, the shin bone 142 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: is particularly at risk for an evulsion fracture among highly 143 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: trained athletes. Man, So imagine jumping so hard they snap 144 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 1: your own bones with your mouth. That's crazy. Well, we 145 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: learned in the when you get shocked, you know, like 146 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: our body has that reserve, Like when you get shocked 147 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:34,080 Speaker 1: from and then blown across the room. That's actually not 148 00:08:34,160 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: the power blowing across the room. That's your muscles are 149 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,559 Speaker 1: so strong and capable of doing that under the right circumstance, 150 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:42,719 Speaker 1: exactly like the potentials there, but we have a neurological 151 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 1: filter that keeps us from doing that. And I looked 152 00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 1: that up to to see if there was like an 153 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: association of evulsion fractures and electrocutions. They couldn't find anything. 154 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 1: But it seems intuitive, doesn't it. Yeah? I think so. Yeah. 155 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:59,040 Speaker 1: And then finally the pathological fracture just the most dastardly 156 00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:02,400 Speaker 1: of fractures. Um. It's when the bones are weakened by 157 00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: disease and really break pretty easily. They're brittle like osteoporosis killing, unbreakable. 158 00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: But Sam Jackson's character, yes, Mr what's his name? Mr 159 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: Brittle like that. I can't remember, but he was, remember 160 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: his bones broken very easily. That was the premise of that. 161 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: At least was a really great It was a great movie. 162 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: I really enjoyed. Actually, I thought it was like his 163 00:09:26,840 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: only good movie. He didn't like The Sixth Sense, and 164 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 1: I guess that was okay. That was a great It's 165 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: hard to remember though, because he's sucked so much since then. 166 00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: I felt bad for that guy, and it's kind of 167 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:42,199 Speaker 1: great imagination, but um, yeah, I guess it's just I 168 00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,839 Speaker 1: don't know what the problem is because he has He's 169 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 1: made some great movies. At the Village. That was a 170 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: really good movie. I didn't care for it. Are you 171 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: kidding me? I didn't care for it. I thought that 172 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: twist was amazing enough. With the twists with that guy, 173 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: Oh well, that's the whole thing. One trick pony. No 174 00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: he's not. It's like calling oh Henry a one trick pony. 175 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,439 Speaker 1: There's twists like just having a twist. Alfred Hitchcock, Master 176 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 1: of the twist, Master of the twist. I have a 177 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,760 Speaker 1: few other bone facts, just since we're talking about bones. 178 00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: Uh we know. I think we said it on our 179 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: TV show even you're born with about three fifty bones 180 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 1: and when you die you have two six because a 181 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:30,319 Speaker 1: lot of your bones fused together from when you're a 182 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: little baby. Um in the hand, in the foot, in 183 00:10:36,760 --> 00:10:41,400 Speaker 1: the thorax, in the vertibal crump, the what I just 184 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: spaced out vertebral column rom and uh, only one in 185 00:10:48,520 --> 00:10:51,560 Speaker 1: the throat. We have a bone in the throat apparently, 186 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: so where you know right there you're touching it, that's 187 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,040 Speaker 1: my atoms apple. By twenty years old, we have a 188 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: of our skeletal mass, and our bone density peaks at 189 00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: thirty and then starts going down the hill after that, 190 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 1: right it does. But um, there's a lot of confusion 191 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: out there. I assume that our skeleton stops growing. Yeah, 192 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: and it does, Like we do reach a point where 193 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: what did you say? Thirty thirty is where it peaks. 194 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: So our skeleton has reached the it's full size. But 195 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 1: that doesn't mean it stops producing um skeleton, new skeleton. 196 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: Apparently every year a full ten percent of our skeleton 197 00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 1: is totally regenerated. Yeah, which we'll get to that process, okay. Uh. 198 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: And then alcohol and smoking, um are no good for 199 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 1: your bones. Um. You lose density and osteopenia, which is 200 00:11:41,679 --> 00:11:45,360 Speaker 1: sort of like a pre asteoporosis, I guess, and that 201 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 1: before I think, yeah, I think when I was a smoker, 202 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,679 Speaker 1: I knew that, Like it was bad for bones, it's 203 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,520 Speaker 1: definitely bad for teeth. And I'm sure the tour associated 204 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 1: because I'll bet it's bone loss that makes your teeth 205 00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 1: fall out from smoking. Totally is um. And then I 206 00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: guess I've got some stuff on how to support your 207 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:03,520 Speaker 1: bones and good foods and stuff, but um, maybe we 208 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: should do that at the end. Oh yeah, a happy ending. Okay, yeah, 209 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 1: so chuck. Um, Well, we know virtually everything there is 210 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: to know about bones, but we don't know how they 211 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:21,480 Speaker 1: work yet. We're about to, right, So, like I said, um, 212 00:12:21,520 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 1: we regenerate about ten percent of our skeleton every year, 213 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,840 Speaker 1: and not the same time percent. It's just this constant 214 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 1: process called bone remodeling. Yeah, our bones aren't just like 215 00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: dead sticks that are flesh and muscle are wrapped around there. 216 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: It's living matter, just like the rest of your body. Right. 217 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 1: And in addition to um the support and structure for 218 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:47,240 Speaker 1: your body um that the muscalo skeletal system provides, it's 219 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:52,200 Speaker 1: also your skeleton is a source for um storing minerals, sure, 220 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: hard minerals um the marrow. There's two types of mirrow. 221 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 1: There's red marrow where we create blood cells. Red blood 222 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: sells yep um. And then there's also yellow marrow, where 223 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 1: we store fat. Yeah, that just sounds gross. Fatty bones, 224 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: fatty yellow marrow in our bones sounds cross to me. 225 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: Have you ever eaten bone marrow? I know you it's 226 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: like the butter of the gods, But have you ever 227 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: tried it? No? I guess I should taste it. But yeah, 228 00:13:19,800 --> 00:13:22,839 Speaker 1: you're gonna taste it one day. I will see to it. 229 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: There's places that you can find bone marrow, and I 230 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 1: urge you to go there. Yeah, you can get on 231 00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: your burger at a is it farm Burger indicator? Oh yeah, 232 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: they do have marrow, don't they. Yeah. I think you 233 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,920 Speaker 1: actually ate one with marrow. I'm sure I did. Yeah. Yeah, 234 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 1: I very rarely turned down marrow. Yeah, because I mean you, 235 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: you can't find it everywhere, and it's very tough to 236 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: screw up marrow. Okay, Well that's good to know anyway. 237 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 1: In my opinion, fatty bone marrow sounds awesome in my 238 00:13:54,880 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 1: Oh it does not, but I'll try. Did you pick 239 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 1: that up at the folk festival. What in my oh? 240 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: I don't think so, I because you've never said it before, 241 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: and you said it twice today. I don't. I don't 242 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: think that was like the phrase that was sweeping. It 243 00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:14,560 Speaker 1: was a banner in the back, behind back in my 244 00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:19,120 Speaker 1: O tour. I'm oh, yeah, I'm a I thought you're 245 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,200 Speaker 1: saying in my oh, I was. I'm just old and 246 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how these but I like the variation. Alright, 247 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: So hold on, haunt. I'm still I haven't lost my 248 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 1: train of thought yet. I've got it in reserve marrow. Well, 249 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 1: we're past the marrow. The point is, the bone is 250 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: a living structure. The thing is um. It can mineralize 251 00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: since the store of hard minerals. The bone can become 252 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: a little too hard because it needs to stay living 253 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 1: as well as rigid um. And so we do bone remodeling. 254 00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: So this process is basically a three step process. Right, 255 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: So you've got the old bone that's become too hard. 256 00:14:57,720 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: Ossified is what it's called. And um it's basically broken 257 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: down by a type of um bone cell called osteoclasts. Yeah, 258 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: they go around and chomp it up, right, and um 259 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:15,440 Speaker 1: absorb it. There's this part of the process is called resorbtion, 260 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: and I guess they leave behind new cells and these 261 00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 1: new cells are um, I think they attract something called osteoblasts, 262 00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: which are a different type of bone cell, and they 263 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 1: generate new bone tissue. That's right, and that is bone remodeling. Uh. 264 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,440 Speaker 1: And then you have you know, there's cartilage involve two 265 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: and that's where condroblasts come in form the new cartilage. 266 00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: And between those three types of cells, you are regenerating 267 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 1: your bone and uh, every day basically yes, Okay, so 268 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:46,880 Speaker 1: in the fact that we have this constantly going on, 269 00:15:47,480 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 1: it's not that big of a deal to your bones 270 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: to undertake this process of healing like this is. Those 271 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 1: are the reasons why condro condro blasts, osteoblasts, and osteoclasts 272 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: are the reasons why we can regenerate new bone once 273 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: we break it. Yeah, and like from the moment you 274 00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,480 Speaker 1: break your bone, it kind of starts to begin this 275 00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:11,720 Speaker 1: process of healing itself, which is pretty great. And if 276 00:16:11,720 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: you were like trapped in the woods and you could 277 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: get it set sort of right, you're gonna probably be okay, 278 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 1: Like you don't need a doctor. Well, you need a 279 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: doctor in many cases. But before there were doctors, people 280 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: still healed broken bones. Yeah, I mean the body does so. Yeah, 281 00:16:28,160 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: And depending on how how well the whole thing went, 282 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: you might be totally fine, yeah, or you might walk 283 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: with a little hitchen your giddy hill. Right. Yeah. If 284 00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:38,440 Speaker 1: it's the Middle Ages, you never know. So when when 285 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: a bone breaks, there's the your body undertakes this process 286 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:48,680 Speaker 1: of regeneration. Um. There's three phases, that's right, three phases, right, 287 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 1: and uh, the first phase is the actual break. And 288 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 1: remember there's there's um blood vessels in your bones, yeah, 289 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: surrounding the bone. So does break two. Yes, which that 290 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 1: sounds bad, but it's kind of good. It is. The 291 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 1: body says, I'm gonna make lemons lemonade out of the 292 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: lemons that have just been dealt. Yeah, I'm bleeding profusely, 293 00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,560 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna go ahead and take that blood, let 294 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: it build up in the fissure in the crack um 295 00:17:13,280 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 1: and create a cloth. Yeah, which helps. It's called a 296 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 1: fracture hematoma, and that's the beginning of the healing process. 297 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:23,880 Speaker 1: It stabilizes everything, keeps it as lined up as possible, 298 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: and cuts off the flow of blood. To those jagged 299 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,840 Speaker 1: edges there, right, And since the jagged edges lose blood flow, 300 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: they start to die, and so the the I guess 301 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 1: the parts of the fracture that are going to be 302 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 1: the roughest just fall away and are reabsorbed. Yeah right, Yeah, 303 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,679 Speaker 1: it's gonna cause the swelling and inflammation because it's like 304 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: everything's hard at work. All these cells are hard at 305 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 1: work trying to you know, get all the dead tissue 306 00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,200 Speaker 1: out of there. Uh. And then little tiny blood vessels 307 00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: are going to start to grow again. Um, they grow 308 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 1: in the in the claw, so that now all of 309 00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,400 Speaker 1: a sudden there's a transport system to this area, that's right. 310 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: And that takes place over about three or four days. 311 00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: The sematoma um develops, right, that's right. Um, so that 312 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 1: will develop into you know, it gets tougher as it 313 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:19,240 Speaker 1: goes and it forms something called soft callous um, which 314 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:22,359 Speaker 1: is sort of the beginning of I liken it to 315 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:26,200 Speaker 1: like an internal cast almost right, like the beginnings of it. 316 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 1: And it gets harder and harder as this process goes on. Yeah, 317 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 1: so you and this actually replaces the clock, like the 318 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 1: clock kind of turns into the soft callous right, and 319 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,480 Speaker 1: the soft callous is the result of um, these things 320 00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 1: called fibroblasts which start producing collagen, and this collagen builds 321 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:48,440 Speaker 1: up and um, that's what develops your soft callous. That's right. 322 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,720 Speaker 1: It's kind of like, um, you have your skin, it's 323 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,400 Speaker 1: made of collagen. Yeah, it's a protein. Your bones apparently 324 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,120 Speaker 1: made of collagen to essentially it's the it's the base 325 00:18:56,200 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 1: protein for bone and skin color. Where would we be 326 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,000 Speaker 1: without collagen? We would just be keeping mess on the floor, 327 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: would be in zero's ville zero. Um. And then this 328 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: so you've got the soft callous and then the soft 329 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 1: callous is eventually replaced um with something called the fibro 330 00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 1: cartilaginous callous yea condroblasts or the cells that helped produce that. 331 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: And again this is just a process of hardening and 332 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 1: strengthening as the bones are lined up right, And all 333 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,919 Speaker 1: of it started with that hematoma, that clot and it 334 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 1: was it's become replaced and then um, now it's getting 335 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: a little harder, it's getting a little tougher, and I 336 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 1: guess you have the fibro cartilage cartilaginous callous that remains 337 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 1: and rather than being replaced by the bone callous the 338 00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:45,440 Speaker 1: bone callous builds around it. Yeah, and that's the actual 339 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 1: linking device that links the two pieces of the bone together. 340 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,080 Speaker 1: That's the bridge, right. And those osteo blasts that are 341 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,640 Speaker 1: responsible for um the bone remodeling that constantly goes on, 342 00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: they're the ones producing the bone callous and the bone alice. 343 00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 1: If the soft callous is the beginning of that initial cast, 344 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 1: this is like the cast that your body builds for 345 00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: your bone, and it covers the area and allows that 346 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 1: bone regeneration to take place in this completely protected area. Yeah. 347 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: So the fibro cartilus callus is a few days, I'm sorry, 348 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: a few weeks, and then the hard bone callous is 349 00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: three or four months. Right. That's why you when you 350 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,440 Speaker 1: have a cast on, you have to have your cast 351 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 1: for several months or at least a couple of months, 352 00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: usually long enough for a distinct Yeah, and it should 353 00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,840 Speaker 1: get ants inside. Yeah. I remember being a kid and 354 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,639 Speaker 1: being jealous of kids who got their cast signed in 355 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: things because it was always, you know, the kid would 356 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 1: show up, they get a lot of attention, and everyone 357 00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,680 Speaker 1: would sign their cast and it was just a big thing. 358 00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:47,400 Speaker 1: And I never broke my bone, and I was just 359 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: like I want to break a bone. Do you do? 360 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: You even remember the Simpsons where Bart has a cast 361 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,760 Speaker 1: for the summer Man. It is season two, three four 362 00:20:57,880 --> 00:20:59,640 Speaker 1: something like that. It's one of the best ones ever 363 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,080 Speaker 1: because simultaneously I think, um, I guess the Simpsons get 364 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:07,679 Speaker 1: a pool too, and everybody's having so much fun in 365 00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,399 Speaker 1: the pool, but Bart can't get in and there's like 366 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: a rear window like rear window thing going on with him. Um, right, 367 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: because Jimmy Stuart was in the wheelchair, right yeah, um. 368 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 1: But Millhouse comes over and Bart's like, mill House, my 369 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: trust of friends, you won't leave me, Willie, and he's 370 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: signing Bart's cast. He's like, I gotta go Bart, and 371 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 1: they show his signature. It says Millpool. Anyway, that's the 372 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 1: Simpsons episode. That's good. It's a good one. And when 373 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:36,199 Speaker 1: I was a kid too that they still had them 374 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 1: early on, they still had the plaster cast you know 375 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: that we're really easy to sign, and then they kind 376 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 1: of I don't even know what they're made of now, 377 00:21:43,359 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 1: but it looks more like, ah, like fibrous, you know. 378 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 1: Whatever's hard. It's harder to sign though. Yeah, it's not 379 00:21:52,880 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: like the old days. No, but don't They have like 380 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: designs and colors and stuff they so kids can like 381 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,480 Speaker 1: get funky with their casts. I'm sure they do. Actually 382 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 1: I've never seen it, but that makes total sense. Make 383 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 1: broken bones fun like band aids and stuff. All Right, So, um, 384 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: we've got our bone callous. That is when the healing 385 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:14,040 Speaker 1: is really going on. That is the stable protection, the 386 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 1: interior cast as it is or as it could be. Right, 387 00:22:18,760 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 1: and you could leave that alone. Yeah, and like you said, 388 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:24,720 Speaker 1: risk dying or having a lamp or something like that. 389 00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 1: You can take a chance if you wanted, right, But 390 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: if medical science is anything it's interventionist. So they come 391 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 1: in and they say, we're gonna help this process along 392 00:22:34,680 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: as best as we can. And a lot of times 393 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,680 Speaker 1: it's as simple as creating a cast, which basically forms 394 00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 1: that protective layer and keeps kids from doing stuff that's 395 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: fun while their bone is reproducing itself. Yeah, they're gonna 396 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: diagnose you. They're gonna immobilize it with that cast and 397 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: make sure it's all in proper alignment. Um, maybe a splint, 398 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,159 Speaker 1: maybe a sling, maybe a brace, whatever it takes, depending 399 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 1: on like where the break is, how bad it is, 400 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 1: how old you are, and horrifically. It's probably painful. Yeah, 401 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: because your bone, if it's not in alignment, when you 402 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:15,640 Speaker 1: go to see the doctor, they have to make sure 403 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 1: that it is in alignment, which means that they're going 404 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: to physically force it back into alignment, which means you're 405 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:24,400 Speaker 1: gonna pass out from the pain if they don't give 406 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: you something beforehand. Yeah. I've also heard I should have 407 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: looked this up, that if it's not healing right, they'll 408 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 1: rebreak it. Sometimes that true, imagine. Yeah, I've heard that 409 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: it seems like a new someone that had that happen 410 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 1: surgical break. Yeah, I think so, I'll have to look 411 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:44,119 Speaker 1: at a medical break. I bet that's happened. Uh, you 412 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 1: might need traction, which um, I never really knew what 413 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 1: traction was. I thought traction was just, hey, I need 414 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,960 Speaker 1: to keep my leg elevated for a period of time. 415 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:58,680 Speaker 1: But it's not just that. It's actually weights and ropes 416 00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 1: and pulleys like pushing in, pulling constantly to make sure 417 00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:04,639 Speaker 1: it stays in alignment and maintains that alignment. Right. So 418 00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:07,440 Speaker 1: like if you have um a leg where the break 419 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 1: is trying to go um one, the lower part is 420 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,720 Speaker 1: trying to go up and the upper part is trying 421 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 1: to go down. You would have a pully pulling on 422 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,560 Speaker 1: the lower part and the upper part pushing on the 423 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: upper part, pulling each away, so that it's constantly in alignment. Right, 424 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:27,160 Speaker 1: it's got to be painful, I would imagine. I can't 425 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: imagine traction is fun. There is a kind of traction 426 00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: that bears your last name, Bryant traction. Yes, and it's 427 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: as cute as possible. It's for little kids only who 428 00:24:38,359 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: suffered um femur or hip breaks and their tiny little 429 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 1: legs have to both be up in the air at 430 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: a ninety degree angle of their pelvis. And it's heartbreakingly 431 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: adorably sad uh to see a little kid in Bryant 432 00:24:54,160 --> 00:24:58,000 Speaker 1: traction because they're all like four. Um, and I've seen 433 00:24:58,040 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 1: pictures because I looked up traction And if you want 434 00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: to see a really disturbing PDF, that's not intended to 435 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 1: be disturbing, it's just forthright medical photos. It's um. Look 436 00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 1: go on to Lancaster General College dot E d U 437 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 1: and look up traction and Orthopedic Care by a guy 438 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:21,879 Speaker 1: named Rothicker. And um, it's it's just basically how to 439 00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 1: and like different types of traction and attractions kind of 440 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:31,040 Speaker 1: become abandoned largely by the medical profession. It was, you know, 441 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,040 Speaker 1: kind of big in the twentieth century and I think 442 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: we've kind of outgrown it largely. Um. But there are 443 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:42,440 Speaker 1: some old timey torturific looking at traction devices out there, 444 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: like that the head tongs, you know, like an ice 445 00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: tong they used to deliver like three students delivered ice. 446 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 1: They have those for your head to like hold your 447 00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:57,439 Speaker 1: head in in alignment with your spinal column for however 448 00:25:57,480 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 1: long it needs to be if you break your back. 449 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: There's some it's just really kind of weird to see. 450 00:26:03,119 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 1: But there's little kids in Bryant Attraction and that he uh, 451 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 1: you know, I bet our friends, um, you know, from 452 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:12,399 Speaker 1: my brother and my brother and me, Justin McElroy. He 453 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,679 Speaker 1: and his wife now Sidney, who's a doctor, have a 454 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,440 Speaker 1: new podcast called Sawbones. Oh yeah, I saw that. It's 455 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 1: really good. It's basically Sitney and Justin are both just 456 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:28,879 Speaker 1: fascinated by antiquated medical practices and that's like the entire podcast. 457 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,159 Speaker 1: And I guess you'd probably get that on like bulls Eye, right, 458 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: Bull's Eye website, yeah, or or iTunes. It's really good 459 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 1: and they they sweetly said that they were inspired by 460 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 1: us and as far as delivering like educational slash funny podcasts. Sweet. Yeah, 461 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: so it's pretty cool. Um yeah, okay, h surgery surgery, 462 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 1: Oh that's another thing. If you are in traction. There's 463 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: two kinds of attraction. Their skins attraction, which is basically 464 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: like they attached the ropes and the pulleys and stuff 465 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 1: to using medical tape or like a boot or a 466 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 1: sling or something thing. Then there's skeletal traction where they 467 00:27:02,600 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: go in and attach pins, rods, needles to your bone. Yeah, 468 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 1: that's if pretty severe breaks require this. Usually you don't 469 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 1: need surgery to repair a bone, but if you do, 470 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,719 Speaker 1: that means you're gonna be getting like bolts and pins 471 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 1: and things inserted to keep everything properly aligned. And while 472 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 1: your in traction, your muscles are doing jack yeah, which 473 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 1: means they atrophy, which means you're gonna have to go 474 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: through rehab yeah, which which is good. Like um and rehab, 475 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: you know, they specialize in just enough work two build 476 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: up your muscle and cartilage and tendons again, but you 477 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: still have to respect the break. So it's like it's 478 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,800 Speaker 1: a very delicate line. They're walking here with what kind 479 00:27:42,800 --> 00:27:47,639 Speaker 1: of rehab you can do? You know? Um, So broken 480 00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 1: bones can lead to it's not always just as easy 481 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: as your bone is broken, let's HeLa. There can like 482 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:59,120 Speaker 1: the complications you can die from, like a broken hip. Yes, Sadly, 483 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: as apparent, only one third of hip related hip break 484 00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 1: related deaths are come from that hematoma. Huh, that's sad 485 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: And I think probably what happens, um when you have 486 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,960 Speaker 1: that fracture hematoma and a hip, you're still moving around 487 00:28:17,000 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: a little bit. So what that's called, though, is a 488 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 1: pulmonary embolism. That's when that clot moves up and blocks 489 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,400 Speaker 1: like arteries to your lungs, and that's where the death 490 00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: results from. Obviously, if you have a compound fracture, infection 491 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:34,120 Speaker 1: is pretty big risk. Uh, if you break ribs, they 492 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: can puncture organs or if they're not properly said or 493 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,560 Speaker 1: not healing right, they can you know, squeeze out organs 494 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: and uh lead to like tissue damage and things like that. 495 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 1: That's no good. And then there's something called fibro dysplasia 496 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 1: assif cans progressive or fo P. It's a genetic condition 497 00:28:57,800 --> 00:29:00,640 Speaker 1: with a life expectancy of about forty years of age 498 00:29:01,400 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: and basically chuck that bone remodeling process goes haywire. There's 499 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:11,520 Speaker 1: a genetic mutation to where any kind of trauma to 500 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: your tissue triggers bone regeneration at the site, So like 501 00:29:17,320 --> 00:29:20,280 Speaker 1: your muscle is turning into bone, your muscle, your skin, 502 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 1: your fat. Those pictures man like it showed a skeleton 503 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:29,320 Speaker 1: bear skeleton that had had had this disease, and it's like, 504 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: there's it's like skeleton plus think what you're used to 505 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: looking to plus a lot more. Yeah, um, and it's 506 00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 1: very sad condition. There's UM. I think there's They believe 507 00:29:40,400 --> 00:29:42,920 Speaker 1: only about seven people in the world have fo p 508 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:47,480 Speaker 1: UM and most of them are incorrectly diagnosed with things 509 00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 1: like cancer because cancer can do all sorts of wacky 510 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 1: stuff to bones UM as a secondary condition UM, and 511 00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: so they get all sorts of unnecessary treatment like chemotherapy 512 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: and things like that. UM, even when you're having cancer, 513 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: even when it is UM correctly diagnosed. It's basically like 514 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: parents are forced to choose like, okay, am, I gonna 515 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 1: try to keep you alive as much as possible and 516 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: make you live in a bubble or am I gonna say, 517 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: you know, I want you to live your life and 518 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:24,160 Speaker 1: you can go out and get a bruise and inoculation, um, 519 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: get punched in the arm and all of those things. 520 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:31,400 Speaker 1: Those sites are going to turn to bone. A bruise 521 00:30:32,040 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 1: creates a bone there at the site, your joints lock 522 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: up and then you you lose use of that that limb. Yeah, 523 00:30:40,040 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: I saw the one guy interviewed. It was just like, 524 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 1: you know, he can't walk around, he can't lay down comfortably. 525 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: It just really just locks you up. Yeah, it's a 526 00:30:48,240 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: really terrible, horrific condition. But now that they've discovered the 527 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: gene mutation associated with it, they really feel like the 528 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 1: next generation of fo P patients are gonna have a 529 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: lot better quality of life than the ones alive today. Yeah. 530 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 1: And there's a girl um in Peachtree City who has it, 531 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 1: who's just kind of a plucky survivor. That's here in Georgia. 532 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:14,280 Speaker 1: By the way, how are you not know it's in Georgia. 533 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 1: It's called Peachtree City. That's where everybody drives golf carts around. 534 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: Oh really, Yeah, you didn't know that that's the home 535 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,959 Speaker 1: of Club Car, the golf cart company. Yeah, and for 536 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,800 Speaker 1: some reason, like Peachtree City, I guess to celebrate club 537 00:31:29,840 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: car built a bunch of like paths like all over 538 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: the city. That's how you get around down there. From 539 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: what I understand, Yeah, well that's neat. Yeah. Uh so 540 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 1: she has it in Peachtree Cities because it's like super 541 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:46,760 Speaker 1: super rare, right, yeah, like seven people worldwide. How's she doing? 542 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 1: She's doing okay. Like I said, she's plucky. From what 543 00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 1: I understand that she was the U. The centerpiece of 544 00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:56,600 Speaker 1: the article on it that I read on ABC News 545 00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 1: called um turned to bone rare condition lacks victims in 546 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: second eton um. It's pretty interesting, boy, seeing the attitude 547 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 1: of people that have things like this happened, Like that's 548 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 1: the inspiration, right we had. I don't know if you 549 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,560 Speaker 1: saw the email a guy wrote in yesterday that cut 550 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: off four of his fingers with a table saw and 551 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: UM had medical leeches used as part of the thing, 552 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: and like sending pictures. It was really gnartly. Oh I 553 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,200 Speaker 1: missed that. But this guy was like smiling in the 554 00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: picture and he's like, you know what, A lot worse 555 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,520 Speaker 1: things can happen. He's like they weren't able to reattach 556 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 1: the fingers I got a nub I can still play 557 00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 1: bass guitar with. And he's got this really really rad 558 00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:37,960 Speaker 1: artificial finger that he sent a picture of, like a 559 00:32:38,120 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: robotic finger. And uh again, just like the attitude, Emily 560 00:32:44,040 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 1: always make jokes about them, like the living will and 561 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,080 Speaker 1: you know, like, what do you want to do in 562 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: case the situations I'm like, if I break a few 563 00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,400 Speaker 1: bones and I'm in traction, I was like, just go 564 00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: ahead and put me out there. I'm just the biggest 565 00:32:57,000 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: complainer and was like, with that stuff, I need to 566 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 1: work on my my attitude. In case of like bad 567 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: situations like that, you should probably specify on record put 568 00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: you out means like kill you or like give you 569 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,640 Speaker 1: a bunch of drugs. Oh, right, because that's that could 570 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 1: lead to a lot of disagreement later on, a right 571 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: could lead to some good times. Right, that will change 572 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:24,560 Speaker 1: your attitude? Get anything else? That's it? Man. Oh by 573 00:33:24,560 --> 00:33:26,440 Speaker 1: the way, Evil Kinevel did not break every bone in 574 00:33:26,440 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 1: his body. That's look that up. That's not true. Really 575 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: now he broke apparently thirty five bones' career. That's not 576 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,480 Speaker 1: that much, which is that's a lot. He also used 577 00:33:36,520 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: to punch out like reporters he didn't like, apparently, and 578 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,000 Speaker 1: break bones in his hand doing so. I guess McConaughey 579 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:44,520 Speaker 1: was going to play him in a biopic. At one 580 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:49,160 Speaker 1: point I thought that was pretty good casting. Who else, Yeah, biopic? 581 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:53,920 Speaker 1: Maybe Josh Lucas. What's wrong with biopic? Biopic? That's that's 582 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,800 Speaker 1: what that's by. We've had this conversation before, what whether 583 00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: it's biopic or biopic? And what did we settle in? 584 00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:02,440 Speaker 1: I say biopic, and I said biopic, but I think 585 00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: I just said biopic. Maybe you know you said biopic? Jerry, 586 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:11,239 Speaker 1: can we get a ruling? Jerry says no, I wasn't 587 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:15,680 Speaker 1: paying attention. I got nothing else. Then, okay, well that's 588 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:18,200 Speaker 1: broken Bones. That was a good one. Yeah, I think so. 589 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: I never really knew. I mean, I knew they healed themselves. 590 00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,839 Speaker 1: But it's a pretty fascinating stuff and if you want 591 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: to learn more about it, you can check out this 592 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 1: article by Robert Lamb on how Stuff Works dot com. 593 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,399 Speaker 1: Um just type in broken bones and it will bring 594 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: it up. And since I said Robert Lamb, that means 595 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:45,279 Speaker 1: it's time for message break. Now, how's about some listener mail? Chuck? Yeah, 596 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:48,280 Speaker 1: this is from a female rugby player, so it probably 597 00:34:48,320 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 1: fits with broken bones. I bet she's broken a bone. 598 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: And I didn't know that ladies played rugby, so I 599 00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:56,719 Speaker 1: was happy to learn this.
