Medical Blunders the Butt of Criticism

A New York State Supreme Court judge has ruled that a hospital did nothing wrong when it tried to give a rectal exam to a hurt construction worker. The construction worker and his attorney beg to differ with the judge and state the hospital didn't try to give the man a rectal exam but did in fact take privileges with the man's kiester although he told them to keep their hands to themselves.

The worker had come into the hospital emergency room after being hit above the eye from a board that required stitches. He claims the hospital staff insisted he be given a buttectomy in order to check for spine damage. But even a construction worker knows an eyebrow has little to do with the spine nor does a probe up one's rear end. The worker claims the doctor refused to stop when he said "No" and that they then tried to restrain him at which time a flailing arm clocked the doctor in the chops. The worker states he was then given a sedative and when he awoke, he was handcuffed to the bed, had an oxygen tube down his throat and could feel squishy lubricant where the sun don't shine.

Now the hospital staff says they never did the exam and for once nothing has shown up on YouTube to prove either side of the case.

The construction worker intends to fight this decision by an obvious butt hole of a judge and hopes to have the verdict overturned. The worker's attorney says the man has a problem working since the visit to the hospital and that his rear end hurts every time he rubs his eyes.

When someone does something really dumb there is nothing like a group of surgeons joining in on the festivities. In Manila, Philippines, three doctors and a nurse are looking at dismissal charges after they acted rowdy during an anal extraction on a gentleman who by error put a can of deodorant in his butt rather than back in the medicine cabinet. With some people and their smells I can see how this might happen.

The surgical staff that thought having to extract a six inch can of body spray was just too funny decided to film their antics during the removal and yes someone was dumb enough to put this one on YouTube. The person who no doubt just sat down on the can by accident found out he was the butt of the surgeon's jokes and has demanded they be suspended or fired for laughing so hard as they handled the extraction. It probably didn't help the doctor's case when after removing the can he went around the room spraying everyone who had helped get the can out of the can.

Incredibly the can still had its lid on when extracted which no doubt explains why a build up of gas in the patient didn't set off a spray every time he passed a toot. Come to think of it, with some people such a system of checks and balances might be a good idea. Personally I will just keep the can of Lysol in my hand after eating hot peppers.

Hi Mike. You made me laugh out loud! Two great stories. Reminds me of the time my young cousin tried to sit on the Coke bottle she had just emptied into her stomach! The man with the deodorant can may not have been all that innocent in his predicament.

Thanks Dianne. I'm sure the man wasn't accidently impaled but of all the things in the world to try, one would think a spray can wouldn't be a good one to try. Mike

"...his rear end hurts every time he rubs his eyes." I nearly hit the floor laughing so hard. Mike, this is good stuff! I'll never look at a can of aerosol anything the same again.

Thanks Avis. You will never look at a spray can the same way. I will never look at a butt the same way either. Mike

Hey Mike, do you think getting a tattoo that said "Exit Only" on ones butt cheek might help? Reminds me of some of the xrays I saw during RT school. Great article!

Thanks Ken. Yes the butt is an egress not an ingress. I'm afaraid spray cans will now require a warning not to shove them up your kiester. Mike
