I’m sort of disappointed that Panache hasn’t shown up in this thread to defend the practice of peenor insertions.

To loosely paraphrase Blackadder:

“What should we do with these urethra-stuffers?”  
“Whatever we do, it won’t be worse than what they do to themselves.”

Speaking of self-inflicted wounds, I really really didn’t need to read this thread. :smack:

Piercings.

You’re doing it wrong.

Threads like this make me glad to be a woman because it’s always socially acceptable to store my stuff in a purse. No need to get creative like these guys.

I’m female. (Though I’ve sounded guys too.) Debating whether or not to get a trans-urethral piercing at some point. For the record, I’ve never used any non-medical devices for urethral stimulation and never would.

Had one patient who made his own purse.

Except he created an attached “purse” out of an abscess pocket on his lateral abdomen. Stored contraband in there.

I had arthroscopic surgery last Thursday for a torn labrum. It’s normally an outpatient procedure, but I developed some breathing problems from the scalene block anesthetic (basically I couldn’t get enough oxygen), so they admitted me overnight. The block did a real number on me – not only did it keep my O2 levels down, but it also paralyzed my bladder sphincter so I couldn’t pee. So just after midnight, they decided to put in a catheter.

Unfortunately, the nerve block **didn’t** affect the urethra or the nerves around it. ☹ :eek: So I, too, pit urethra stuffers.

**QtM** - your patients really are fun people, aren’t they.

Really…colourful.  
All I’ve had are the usual “I fell on the fruitbowl/slipped in the shower/ was vacuuming naked and tripped” patients, the psych patient who liked to eat batteries, broken glass, cigarette lighters and plastic cutlery, and the lady with a learning disability who put anything she came across in her vagina (pens, combs, syringes, food, toothpaste-you name it, I removed it).

Oh…and the guy who had to have his shoes and socks soaked off in a negative pressure isolation room because the pus from his foot infection had fused his footwear to his feet, and the smell was so bad we couldn’t examine him in the regular A&E cubicle because other patients were vomiting.

**irishgirl** , **Qadgop** , you guys need to have an “Weird and disgusting medical tales” thread. Actually, someone should start one.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!  
Sorry, **Sebastienne** , I didn’t mean any offense. I’m just a MAJOR pain-wuss. Anything that sounds painful makes me cringe.

That makes stuffing things up the rectum look like a smart alternative!
