Thank you for not talking over Doctor Barron. I can imagine you were holding yourself back. Very professional.

A really fascinating video. Please do more body parts with experts, similar to this! It's so interesting to know how the body parts should move/work and what to look out for after injury b

Ligaments heal with motion, interesting tid bit there that I'm sure 99 percent of the population was unaware of, good to know, very smart guy this guy is.

That ulnar tuberosity difference he talked about was interesting. I never noticed my right hand has a slightly bigger bump than my left. And I play hockey as a righty. I also fractured my left wrist. I wish he went into more depth about that and if it means anything.

I wished he talked more about the palm of the hand and knots in your palm and how they develop….

If you have ever wanted to interview a chiropractor for an alternative view on some subjects I'd love to come visit. Love your content!

This is a great series of self evaluating anatomical inspections to see if one needs visiting a doctor for any body maladjustments that otherwise can go undetected.🫤👀
