nudity during physical exam

[herbho]

I've had half a dozen different dermatologists. At every visit, the assistant handed me a gown to wear though I have no recollection about whether I was asked to remove my underwear. I probably just naturally removed it since it would be in the way of any full exam. Half of those doctors examined every inch (not just genital and anal areas, but between toes, all areas of the scalp, behind ears etc.) The other half have avoided anal or genital areas but have asked "Any other areas of concern?"

I'll admit my respect for dermatologists drops with this lack of thoroughness. If you are asked a question like this, don't be shy in saying you'd like a complete exam since you're not a doctor and don't necessarily know what to look for. Plus some areas you just can't check yourself. It's your health and your life. One buddy of mine was uncomfortable speaking up to his new doctor so the following year during his annual check up, rather than ask outright for a full exam, he found it easier to make up a story and told the doc that his friend had penile cancer and urged him not to overlook it in his exam.

There's no common denominator (age, gender) that separates the thorough doctors from the others. Fortunately my most recent doctor was amazing - patient, thorough and kind. I hope I can continue being in her care.

Good luck with your exam.

Thank you very much. I'll report in.

I just returned from my full body skin exam and it was both educational and "stimulating." I had never been to a dermatologist before, so this was all new. I arrived at the office and after checking in, was greeted by a male nurse who too me to the exam room. After he asked me a few questions, he told me to undress and put on the gown. He said that I could either leave my underwear on or take them off. I told him that I wasn't shy, so I would take them off. He told me that that would make it a bit easier for the doctor. Soon after I had undressed the doctor came into the room accompanied by a male medical student. The med student was in his 20's and the doctor was in his early to mid-30's and very good looking. The doctor asked my permission to allow the med student to observe. Of course the little bit of exhibitionist took over and I agreed. After another set of questions, the exam began. Scalp, body, looking for any suspicious spots. I was then asked to lie on the exam table. He started with the back, since I had had a few tiny moles. Then, he opened the bottom half of the gown and inspected my butt and the inside, pulling the cheeks apart and looking with his little magnifying apparatus. Here I was with my hole being exposed to not only the doctor, but the young med student; I have to admit that it was exciting. Then I turned over and pulled down the front of the gown so he could inspect the chest and stomach. After that, I pulled up the gown and was naked from the waist down. He looked at the legs and then lifted my testicles and inspected my taint and continued with the penis. It was quite thorough. I thought I would spring a boner right there on the table. Fortunately, everything was fine and the small moles were benign. After the exam, I got dressed and went on my way. In this age of covid, it was the closest I have gotten to sex since Feb. It really was enjoyable, especially since I didn't know what to expect.

Just scheduled my annual physical for mid-September. Gives me time to work off some of these covid lbs.

Wow nice. Most of the places around here are not even doing physicals right now because of covid

Men this is all true..no bull shit...In February i had prostrate cancer surgery . I urge all of you to get an exam . It was to late for me . I had a biopsy . They took 12 samples of the prostrate . It was the most painful thing I ever went through . Even with 2 shots of lidacane . Here's how it goes . You on your side on a table. The Dr has a probe with a sonogram end to it .it's BIG.thet it goes in your ass
Under the probe is a hollow tube a long tool goes it..it's for the 2 shots...didn't work , I felt every thing .
Next a tool goes in and stabs through your rectal wall to stab the postrate , 12 times .they do this to reach all parts of the prostrate , it was worse then being shot..and I was 2 times..war is hell

After my surgery they pull out a Foley catheter , that was really a sexual rush .
Now... After 8 months after . I still can't get a hard on . They say 1 to 2 years and lots off r Viagra
And penal excersize.. And you will never CUM any more .don't believe the shit house lies...NO MORE CU M .ever . This is a devastating blow to the male ego..It will bring on depression .

You will try any thing to get a hard on..I even do penis plugs and sounding . It helps some..
I will answer any questions any one has...

Ouch. I get checked regularly, I can’t imagine them proceeding with the anesthesia not working

as for the catheter I had one for 3 weeks with a bag. Neighbor said when they pull it out you’re going to feel like they’re starting a lawn mower. Prior to that I had to self catheter 6x a day for a month. Luckily it was 1/8” diameter. It became very sensual and sexual. It felt like I was getting fucked inside my cock. When the nurse taught me to self catheter She had to watch me, or at least that’s what she said. I got hard inserting it, she said um sir there just makes the path longer, in my nervous energy humor I said yes a Lot longer. So I had to pee through the catheter while she watched. They put me On a permanent path of exhibitionism. I hope you get pleasure in the future.

A Prostate Biopsy is one of the most archaic medical procedure I have ever experienced in my life time. I had it in January 19, 2020 and I am still not completely recovered from the procedure. The cost of which was very outrageous as well. Medicare did pay their 80% of reasonable and customary charges but those charges were outrageous.

I have. My first primary care doctor right after college was a younger doctor in his early 40's. He would have me in a gown for the first part of the exam, then have me strip totally naked, check my balls and hernia area, as well as any moles. Without fail I would usually get a raging hard on standing there naked. I would apologize and he would tell me not do worry, and that it happens to a lot of guys, not sure if that is true or not. But it happens to me any time I am naked in a doctor's exam, it just happens.
My current GP is much less thorough, usually leaving the gown on the whole time.

Glad all was okay and that the moles were benign. Sounds like you had an appropriately thorough exam.

Thank you. I did get a thorough exam. And the doctors were very attractive to boot......a bonus.

My General practitioners were all much more thorough than the ones of recent years and these of recent years you say something about a mole spot or something else just want to refer you to a specialist for what ever you are trying to discuss with them. The seldom want to even give you an opinion. As more and more of the old times leave the medical field to retire to private live the younger ones taking their place will be that way. JMPO YMMV

do you prefer a male or a female doctor to check out everything including your testicles?

Male. I’ve only had a female Dr once, and it was ok. Would prefer male.

Same. I feel less exposed with a male doctor. I too have only had one female NP do a physical at Kaiser when I lived in CA. She did a hernia and testicular exam and was super fast with both. She seemed more uncomfortable than I did. I also didn't know that a woman would be doing the exam until I got there and she came to the waiting room and called my name. Maybe that was why I was more uncomfortable than normal, because it was unexpected.

As long as they do the job that is supposed to be done it is no difference to me what sex the Physician might be although it might be nice if a sexy young female with those very nice sexy hand would be fondling my nuts and penis and sticking her finger up my ass(finger wave) to check my prostate. Now that may get my penis real hard even thinking about that!

 

[herbho]

I have stated previously that I prefer an older male doctor. They've experienced everything and very often dispense with some of the "coddling" when it comes to nudity, etc. if they know you're okay with it. This is especially true with the foreign born doctors. But of course I'm 100% gay, so a male doctor would put me more at ease.

If knowledge and experience are the same, I'll go for a male doctor, no question. Cock and balls require cock and balls, we just know how things work.

Has anyone had an exam since Covid-19 began? Wondering if there are any new guidelines for exams now? Do most offices still offer gowns? Paper or cloth? I never use the gown but was just curious. I haven't worn underwear since mid-March and wasn't planning on wearing any to my appointment later this month.

No different than before. I was given a choice between gowning and underwear. I chose underwear. I haven't encountered a paper gown yet, only cloth. Of course, everyone is masked and the rooms are disinfected between each patient,so the wait might be a bit longer. But, no difference in exam technique. - everything is eventually exposed.

I just had my annual dermatology exam and it was very different. I've shared previously about my experience with this doc, whom I've been seeing for about 20 years (last one was a creep!). Usually they ask me to strip to totally naked and give me a paper gown, but this time I was fully clothed and he just asked me what areas I was concerned about. Since I was only worried about my bald head, ears, and arms, that's all he looked at.
