Dear Dr. Aaron,

I am beyond embarrassed. I was multitasking like a modern-day marvel—curling my hair AND scrolling through cat videos. All was well until one particularly acrobatic feline made me laugh-snort mid-curl… and then the smell hit. 🔥👃

In my panic to rescue my now slightly crunchy hair, I dropped my phone. The phone ricocheted off my Stanley mug, launched a tidal wave of hot coffee onto my feet, and turned my bathroom into a slip ’n slide. 🐱📱➡️☕💦🦶

Now my back hurts, my pride is bruised, and I cannot—I repeat—cannot let my husband know. He’s been warning me about my “curl-scroll-coffee chaos” for months. I plan to tell him I hurt my back doing something noble and mysterious. Please back me up with a medical alibi. 😅

Sincerely,

“Definitely Not Burnt, Slippery, or Busted”

P.S. Can I get an appointment before my next caffeine-induced disaster? 🙃

Dear “Definitely Not Burnt, Slippery or Busted,”

Your secret is safe with me. In fact, I’ll mark it in the chart as “injured while rescuing endangered wildlife from a bathroom flood”—very heroic. 🦸‍♀️🛁

Back pain from multitasking misadventures is more common than you’d think, especially when high-performance mugs, rogue curling irons, and hyperactive cats are involved. You’ve essentially described the Bermuda Triangle of home hazards. 🔺🔥📱☕

Let’s get you in, get you straightened out, and restore your ability to scroll safely. And no worries—when your husband asks, I’ll nod solemnly and say, “It was the laundry basket. Classic case.”

Call the office. We’ll get you patched up and protected from future feline-related fiascos.

Yours in discretion and spinal alignment,

Dr. Aaron
