Chidonc:And another thing is most times they usually ask those questions or ask you to take off your cloths after they've already made a diagnosis. If it was before making a diagnosis now it would have been better. But after diagnosing me with malaria and now asking me some bullshit questions haha na pervert you be abeg. |

DominusPrime:Wow, my school does not have dentistry but I used to think they were 'medical students' also |
| Re: Share Your Embarrassing Moments With The Doctor by Nobody: 11:51pm On Jun 04, 2020 |
lekbel09:Physically speaking medical schools produce the fields listed above and even more. And in that context you can say that they all go to medical schools. But strictly speaking the word medical student refers to one who is trained in a medical school. In a way you are right. Kingazubuike did go to a medical school. |

izzyboi:They are dental students...lol...that's why the MDCN has the D. If not it would just have been Medical Council of Nigeria. |

I don't really have any embarrassing moment. I have pulled my pant twice for nurses and lab attendant to take sample of discharge that was coming out of my vigina. One was a female nurse and the other was a male nurse. Me I was normal sha. I prefer to do those kind of test where I will open my private part with doctors I have no chance of meeting in a long time after the test |

KingAzubuike:I repeat, stop embarrassing yourself here. There are rectal laxatives, there are also cream or gels, plain gel or anaesthetic gel used for digital rectal examination and for passing urethral catheter. What was used for the person you quoted was an examining gel popularly called K-Y JELLY. Digital rectal or anal examination can be very painful and could cause painful tears around the anal opening and the wall of the anus and rectum. In order to prevent this tear and pains, the finger is smeared with the gel to lubricate the anal opening and soft rectal wall before inserting the finger into the anus. I won't tutor you anymore. It`s either they dropped you at 2nd mbbs or you're a Johesu member exposing your ignorance here. |

1Sharon:I've been following your discussions since and I really do not want to intervene because I really can't stand replying like they have gave. But I'd like to make a comment on this. Asking " could you be pregnant or are you sexually active" like you said, is good. But I have a lot of reason why a doctor would not ask you that but would prefer to go into details, but I wouldn't even tell you those ones because they are medical reasons and you might think so what? But to make this easier, I would go with a reason you mentioned in one of your earlier post. You said "maybe because this is Nigeria where everyone is pretentious" And I would want to talk about that reason alone. Because people are pretentious in Nigeria or they think some thing shouldn't be or shouldn't happen to them, they would outrightly deny it and you a doctor who wants the best for your patient needs to find a way to get the information from them to be able to get the proper diagnosis. It is why a doctor or nurse would start with "have you been feeling excessively thirsty these days or have you been urinating frequently at night?" If would surprise you the patient would deny it. Go like this. "Madam, I just want to know many times do you urinate at night and how many times do you use to before?" The patient might still not answer, but go this way. "Madam, sickness isn't your portion o, I'm just asking. Do you drink like 10, 15 or more times a day and do you urinate like 5 or more times during midnight before day break?" and watch them start talking. Do you now see one of the reasons why doctor ask? It's because when a doctor/nurse ask the question directly, many would deny, but when they start gradually, it's like they are already warming you up and along the way self, you would have dropped hints. A doctor/nurse would ask "are you pregnant" and then patient would go "no o, never." But ask "when was the last time you had sex and have you seen your period since then?" and the patient would go "that was January and it's true o, in fact, I noticed I haven't seen my period since January and I'm even feeling one kind self. But it doesn't seem like pregnancy, because the only thing is that I haven't seen my period, but I mean is just second week of march and you would agree with me not having period for a month doesn't necessarily mean you are pregnant. I mean, I haven't been vomiting, although I don't feel like eating some food anymore because they make me feel funny." Notice they are still denying being pregnant but they have dropped hints along the way. You might say not everyone would be pretentious and you would be right, but a doctor has a lot of patient to attend to. And because you won't know who will be pretentious or not and there's no time for trial and error because there are a lot of people to attend to, they chose to go with what gets everyone talking generally. And the fact that some people are married? If would shock you to know some married people are embarrass to talk about sex and some dread getting pregnant, they don't want it for one reason or the other. And if you ask some people are you pregnant? Because they are scared of saying yes and discovering they are not, they tend to say "no." I would cite an example(I was there). "A staff(my senior colleague) went to the staff clinic to complain she was vomiting, weak, tired and having loss of appetite. The doctor only asked few questions such as " is your period due? The lady said no and that it can't be pregnancy and the doctor too her for her words and they promptly treated something else before discovering the lady was pregnant. Now, imagine a medical practitioner who knew all the symptoms of pregnancy treated something else and it was no one fault because the lady said it can't be pregnancy and the doctor considering the fact that the lady herself is a medical practitioner who worked in the same hospital took her words for what she said, because why would a medical practitioner deny/lie? But you know if the doctor had gone into details, they would have arrived at the correct diagnoses. If a medical practitioner who really know about this can pretend/deny, who can't? Another one, because you present with a symptom common to a disease doesn't mean you have the disease. Many diseases have the same signs and symptoms with only slight differences and without asking these questions, one would never know. It is also to prevent diagnosing and treating the wrong disease. You would agree with me Nausea and vomiting doesn't necessarily mean pregnancy, it's associated with a lot of other diseases. So this is why. However, I know sensitive those questions can be, but it's really medical practitioners doing there job and except for perverts, they've already forgotten asking those questions when the patient leaves. PS: I'm a nurse, not a doctor. |

KingAzubuike:U should learn to take correction . What was described was a basic rectal examination for which you would need a well lubricated finger to perform. There are suppositories which act as laxative but that was definitely not what was described. Some things are just too simple to be arguing about or doubting if you practise the profession. |
| Re: Share Your Embarrassing Moments With The Doctor by Gr8amechi: 12:20am On Jun 05, 2020 |
KingAzubuike:Your post is quite misleading. But first it's called a teaching hospital because it's used to train all level of doctors,secondly no question that you are asked is irrelevant you can take that to the bank. No matter how silly a question is, there is a significance to it |

KingAzubuike:You are really deep in your ignorance. Yes. There are rectal laxatives, also called suppositories, there are also laxatives taken by mouth, but they are not used for rectal EXAMINATION as was indicated by the person you quoted. No doctor will see a patient with constipation and his first approach will be to insert a rectal laxative or suppository without even examining the rectum to establish the cause of the constipation. |

queenitee:Ok ok I see what you're all saying on this thread. I see the logic. Cultural differences I guess Cos the question "when last did you have sex"? Is very intimate and borderline offensive. Never had such a question and honestly I'd answer it with another question. You're saying the patient will actually open up? I thought they'd shy away. "Could you be pregnant"? And "are you sexually active" sound less intrusive for a nigerian |
| Re: Share Your Embarrassing Moments With The Doctor by Fariq: 2:05am On Jun 05, 2020 |
@DominusPrime For example in a teaching hospital, I said I don't want people around me what will happen? Will they ask me to leave. Be frank? Do they have that authority to send me out in a government-owned hospital for asking that only the doctor(s) conducting the exam should be present? Obviously, I cannot allow many people to observe me unless those conducting the exam. This is my personal expression, many are comfortable with that. Imagine yourself as a patient and not as a medical doctor, will you be comfortable that 5 students are looking at you (and in some cases asked to touch you) while a doctor is conducting the exam? Thanks |

okoroemeka:That benzyl benzoate na savior to man kind. It is the only thing that cures scabies completely and surprisingly its produced in Nigeria. I was so proud if Yoruba when i saw the state it was produced. Scabies can make you scratch like a mad man. Funny thing, it does not affect erect-on. Infact you are likely to have more erect*on and urge. So i am not surprised when the woman felt the anger of your mamba, i doubt she no smile. Bc nothing sweet women like a standing prick no matter how ugly it is. E dey give them butterflies. |
