During the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, widened physical distance and social deprivation are being replaced with digital media use. The media's social function has tremendously increased following the COVID-19 era and adolescents living in a media-saturated world are the most vulnerable subjects of all. Social media use can encourage risky behavior in adolescents. Posting videos related to risk behaviors on social media has been linked to jeopardizing not only mental health but also physical safety. Herein, we report a case of a 12-year-old boy who intravenously self-injected drinking yogurt for the purpose of filming a video to post on social media. He was treated with antibiotics based on sepsis that cured him without any complications. In order to reduce the risk-taking behavior of adolescents, social norms need to be straightened up, and the social responsibility of hosts is strongly recommended.
在2019年冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行期间，扩大的身体距离和社会剥夺正被数字媒体使用所取代。在COVID-19时代之后，媒体的社会功能大幅增加，生活在媒体饱和世界中的青少年是最易受影响的群体。使用社交媒体会助长青少年的危险行为。在社交媒体上发布与危险行为相关的视频不仅会危及心理健康，还会危及身体安全。在此，我们报告一例12岁男孩的病例，他为了拍摄视频发布在社交媒体上而静脉自行注射饮用酸奶。他因败血症接受了抗生素治疗，治愈后未出现任何并发症。为了减少青少年的冒险行为，需要端正社会规范，并强烈建议主持人承担社会责任。
