Were any of you particularly sensitive to a specific type of injury and did you get over it working in EM?
Hi!
I'm a 4th year med students from France, starting to strongly consider trying emergency medicine
I haven't tried it yet because I can't seem to find an internship but I think I'd love the fast pace and diversity of the speciality!
One thing I'm a bit anxious about is that I'm particularly sensitive to joint issues (knee going sideways, dislocated shoulder etc....) I think it's because I myself had joint issues when I was younger and I know how painful it can be
Obviously this is something I HAVE to get over since it's a majority of EM cases 😅
So I was wondering if any of you had a particular kind of injury you were sensitive to and if repeated exposure on the field was enough to get over it with time, or if I'm fucked and should pick something else
thanks guys!
