Sweating is normal. It keeps your body cool and helps regulate temperature. But what happens when your body sweats far more than it needs to?

In this episode of Tumor Minutes, Netra explores Hyperhidrosis, a condition that causes excessive sweating even when the body does not need to cool down. For people with severe hyperhidrosis, everyday things like shaking hands, holding a pencil, or using a phone can become surprisingly difficult.

The episode focuses on Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy, a procedure that targets part of the Sympathetic Nervous System responsible for triggering sweat glands. By interrupting these nerve signals, surgeons can dramatically reduce sweating in certain areas of the body.

Netra explains how the surgery works, why doctors usually try other treatments first, and what patients may experience after the procedure. Along the way, she breaks down complex medical concepts into simple explanations and adds a few light jokes about the human body’s very enthusiastic cooling system.

If you have ever wondered why we sweat, how the nervous system controls it, or how surgery can change nerve signals, this episode answers those questions in a clear, engaging, and approachable way.

Plastic surgery is everywhere, but no one talks about it honestly. In this episode, Netra explains what plastic surgery actually involves, from reconstructive to cosmetic procedures, and what the experience is really like. The episode also dives into the pressure celebrities face, including the Kardashians and Korean idols, who are judged both for getting surgery and for not getting it. If you have ever wondered how it works or why society cares so much, this episode answers all your questions with a mix of science, honesty, and humor.

Eye surgery sounds terrifying.
But what actually happens when doctors operate on something the size of a marble?

In this episode of Tumor Minutes, we break down the science behind eye surgery, from common procedures like cataract surgery and LASIK to delicate retinal operations that take place within millimeters. You will learn how surgeons use lasers, microscopes, and incredibly precise tools to restore vision safely and effectively.

We also explore how eye surgery plays a critical role in treating cancers like Retinoblastoma and Uveal Melanoma, and why early detection can make all the difference.

If the idea of anything going near your eye makes you blink aggressively, this episode is for you.
