Sawbones: Tongue Ties
from Sawbones: A Practical Guide to Terrible Decisions Hosted by Justin McElroy, Dr. Sydnee McE
A tongue tie is not just a turn of phrase, it's a medical condition in which the frenulum under your tongue is too thick and restricts your lingual movement. For a long time, a procedure to cut it has been done as a solution to some breastfeeding woes. But should it be? Dr. Sydnee and Justin talk about the history of this procedure and the medical field's view on it today.
