Episode summary One of the fittest patients on Dr. Ya-Ling's schedule came in to talk about a little stiffness in her back in the mornings — a complaint most people would never have mentioned. This episode is about why she did, and about the quiet cultural rule that says a symptom has to be big enough before it's allowed to count.

In this episode

• The 71-year-old patient who trains several times a week, grows her own food, has no pain to speak of, and brought in the smallest complaint of the week

• The two conclusions she could have drawn about her morning stiffness, and why she drew neither

• Why the most useful thing a patient says often comes with a hand already on the door

• What actually differs between arriving early and arriving late, and why the better outcome makes the less impressive story

• A different question to ask yourself when something small shows up
