While not everyone is cut out to be a doctor, millions of people around the world are happy to live vicariously through the lives of doctors and nurses by binge-watching medical dramas. “Grey’s Anatomy” has clocked over 3.2 billion hours of streaming time globally. Let’s not forget the popularity of “House”, “ER”, “Scrubs”, and “The Good Doctor”.
Viewers stay hooked, even if some parts make them want to look away. Watching medical science in action can be intriguing, and at the same time, disturbing. If you get sucked into hospital shows and are fascinated with the workings of the human body, keep scrolling.
Bored Panda has scoured the depths of the internet to compile a list of really interesting photos of the human body. From extreme close-ups of skin, to the effects of chemotherapy on nails, burns, bruises and even eye transplants… There’s something here for anyone who has a morbid fascination with health and healing.

#52 Nail Damage From Chemotherapy
Thought this was interesting – you can see the ridge on my nails where the chemo damage starts. I finished chemo in June, so this is almost two months of healthy growth.
The ring finger nail is only attached by the small patch at the bottom – the rest is just free. The bruising (?) on the middle nail is mildly uncomfortable and I expect that’s the next nail to detach. Interestingly, my thumb nail escaped largely unharmed, except for one large ridge!
