"I stepped off that table and I was actually able to lift my legs. I walked again with no pain at that point."
How do individuals turn their lives around after addiction? This episode of American Medicine Today is packed with fascinating discussions, from innovative medical advancements to heartfelt recovery stories. The show kicks off with Yuanwen Jiang, an engineer at the University of Pennsylvania, who shares the development of 'smart bandages'—a game-changer for patients with chronic wounds. These bandages use wireless electrical stimulation and biosensors to accelerate healing, particularly beneficial for diabetic patients with slow-to-heal injuries.
Next, Kimberly Bars from Tennessee shares her incredible recovery journey after a life-threatening accident. Her story is a testament to resilience and the transformative power of effective medical treatment. After being told by numerous doctors that her pain was untreatable, she found relief at the Bonatti Spine Institute, where innovative spine procedures gave her a new lease on life. Her story is both inspiring and a reminder that persistence can lead to healing even when hope seems lost.
The episode also features Dr. Bonati discussing why he doesn't endorse injections for pain management, highlighting the importance of addressing the root cause rather than masking symptoms. Finally, Priscilla West talks about her book 'The New Face of Woke Education,' revealing how social emotional learning is reshaping education in controversial ways. Whether you're interested in cutting-edge medical technology or personal stories of triumph over adversity, this episode has something for everyone.
