Thread: My Doctor Advised Me To Stop Shaving With a Straight Razor!

People who don't shave with a straight razor think that it's some sort of blood bath waiting to happen. I thought the same thing myself and was truly afraid to start until I found Lynn's videos. I don't say there is no potential for harm but being careful I have only had 2 very small nicks, both caused by a spike on a razor, which explains why I was told to avoid them before I get more experience
Physicians will always advice you with the worst scenario in mind and after that they will document it so you don't go back and sue them. One of the craziest lawsuits I have read about was a guy with chest pain dying one day prior his medical test while having a threesome with another couple he was friends with and then the widow suing the cardiologist for not telling him not to have a strenuous activity prior the test.
The meds you get after getting stents are usually not true blood thinners but antiplatelet meds which block the platelets from sticking together and creating a block in the stent. Do people bleed longer when they take them, yes they do that's why the surgeons prefer to operate when those meds are out of your system but I have never heard of anybody bleeding to death from a cut while on anti platelet meds. Of course if you manage to cut your carotid then you will probably bleed to death.
