Tennis elbow does not involve the elbow joint, so it is not a joint condition. Wear wrist cock-up splints, particularly at night. Routinely massage the lateral aspect of your elbow, just where the...
Visiting my FIL in the hospital, post-op Day 1 after spinal fusion. As always, I'm doing my best to fly under the radar and not announce by word or action that I'm a nurse. It's apparent that we...

Your thoughts are your thoughts and you are entitled to them. Your outward appearance does not necessarily reflect your competence. It remains to be seen if your potential employers/patients feel as...
My experience is that the males who worry most about their public presentation have the most reason to worry about/defend their image. Just my experience, but this theory has prevailed in the public...
The thread's title wonders if women are "attracted" to male nurses. That question has a sexual connotation, as do the rest of OP's questions: "ladies, do you find male nurses attractive?" "Do you...
Again, sorry for your experiences. I have no doubt that you have undergone some bad experiences. But please do not transfer previous experience onto your current social workers. He/she deserves a...
1. What/where is Tullahoma? 2. Word to the wise: You are a nursing student, end of sentence. Learn to identify yourself as such. Self-identifying as "male nursing student" is unnecessary and...
Again, "well-known" according to whom? I have worked with exactly 9 male nurses in my career. One was gay. Does 1/9 a stereotype make? More importantly, why are you so worried about "appearing" to be...

Are you seriously asking females if they "like" a man taking care of them?? As in being attracted to a manly nurse? (Which, by the way, has no place in the discussion of appropriate nursing care.)...
She died yesterday. In a small plane crash in Virginia. One of the most beautiful (inside & out) nurses that I will ever have the privilege of working with. Two of her four children perished with...
Lol!, r.i.g.h.t. And I created YouTube. Seriously, take a look at your posts + OP's posts. How many "likes" do you two receive? How many "likes" do I and fellow objective thinkers receive? Do you...
So agree. I requested that it be shut down. OP needs to look elsewhere for her validation. Note to self: Avoid any caregiver who relies on YouTube for "advanced practice
No hyperbole. Real world dismay & fear. Dismay at your desire to encourage delusional thought processes, despite your advanced degree and presumed real-world experience. Fear that there may be...
I'm truly more disturbed by your posts than by the OP's. At least she can, in the end, claim ignorance as a wanna-be nursing student. You claim an advanced degree yet show a remarkable lack of...
