Case stories
Xiaoyu is a young doctor who has just graduated. He was assigned to work at a busier community hospital. One day, Xiaoyu was on the night shift.
Late at night, a middle-aged man walked into the emergency room with his right hand pressed to the lower part, his face contorting an expression of pain. Xiaoyu stepped forward to ask, it turned out that when the middle-aged man named Mr. Li checked his bladder, he accidentally used too much force, resulting in bleeding from the lower part.
The situation was urgent, and Xiaoyu immediately asked the male nurse Brother Wang to come over to assist. But Mr. Li didn't know why he was so shy that he refused to show his lower part in front of Big Brother Wang. Xiaoyu had no choice but to ask the female nurse, Ms. Li, to come and help.
Ms. Li soon arrived at the emergency room. She asked Mr. Li to lie on the hospital bed, and then asked him softly, "Let me see the injury?" Mr. Li blushed and shook his head, stammering, "I... I'm fine...... Wait a minute. "
Ms. Li smiled and said, "Please rest assured, I am a doctor and I am used to seeing this situation. Your wound needs to be treated promptly, otherwise it will become infected. Mr. Li hesitated for a while, then finally nodded and slowly took off his pants, revealing his injured lower part.
Xiaoyu and Ms. Li carefully examined the wound and found that it was a ruptured epidermis and bleeding, which was not too serious. Ms. Li skillfully disinfected Mr. Li to stop the bleeding, and then bandaged it with clean gauze. During the process, Mr. Li's face was red and his heart was beating, for fear that there would be an "accident" if he was not careful.
But Ms. Li treated the wound as if she was strange, and said gently: "Everything is fine, please go home and recuperate for a few days and it will be fine." We are doctors, we are used to seeing all kinds of situations, you don't have to feel embarrassed. I wish you a speedy recovery. Mr. Li finally breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him gratefully and left the hospital.
This experience made Xiaoyu learn a lot. He realized the importance of mutual respect and trust between doctors and patients. Ms. Li's calmness and professionalism gave Xiaoyu a good demonstration. Xiaoyu secretly made up her mind to work hard to cultivate her medical ethics and become a good doctor like Ms. Li.
What should nurses do if they encounter a patient's intimate injury and shyness?
For nurses, it is their job duty to handle the patient's private parts and should not be embarrassed.
But as a healthcare professional, nurses should handle the situation in the most appropriate and prudent way to show respect for patient privacy. Here are some suggestions:
1. Explain the steps to be performed in advance and ask for the patient's consent.
2. Cover exposed areas as much as possible, exposing only necessary areas.
3. Communicate with patients in a professional and formal tone.
4. Complete the necessary steps as soon as possible and do not overly manipulate or focus on the intimate area.
5. If the patient feels unwell, ask if the patient needs a pause or termination.
6. Take additional privacy measures, such as closing doors and curtains.
7. Same-sex care can make some patients feel more comfortable.
With a professional attitude and proper communication, nurses can minimize any embarrassment that the patient and themselves may feel. This requires nurses to maintain communication and understand the patient's needs and comfort.
What should boys do if they are embarrassed to look at their private parts?
Understand the professionalism of doctors. Doctors look at patients professionally and do not harbor inappropriate thoughts. Maintaining professional distancing can help reduce embarrassment.
Seek a same-sex doctor in advance. If allowed, a same-sex doctor can be requested in advance, which can greatly reduce discomfort.
Request a minimum number of people present. The smaller the number of people in the venue during the inspection, the less embarrassment there is. Only the attending physician and necessary nurses may be present.
Ask about each inspection step. Having the doctor explain in detail what to be examined at each step helps to prepare and shows mutual respect between doctors and patients.
Focus on the examination itself. Focus on your physical condition, develop a professional mindset, and don't pay too much attention to the gender of the doctor.
Rational use of coverings. Where permitted, using a cloth to cover non-examination areas can increase the sense of security.
Choose the most comfortable position. Choose the most comfortable position according to your doctor's advice, which will help you relax. Maintain good communication with the doctor. If you feel inhibited during the examination, you can give feedback to your doctor and ask for a better solution.
Bring peer support. Consider bringing a trusted friend or family member to support you if needed.
Check your doctor's qualifications. Knowing a doctor's professional background can increase trust and peace of mind. Maintaining a professional perspective and enhancing mutual understanding are the keys to eliminating embarrassment for both doctors and patients. In most cases, choosing a trusted and good doctor will greatly reduce the sense of embarrassment.
But in fact, in the end, if you don't have diseases in the intimate area, you don't need to consider these problems, so everyone must do a good job of prevention.
How can men prevent diseases of the intimate region?
The key to preventing male disease is to adopt healthy lifestyle habits, which include:
1. Maintain a healthy diet. The diet should be nutritionally balanced, with sufficient protein, vitamins and minerals, and moderate intake of cereals, vegetables and fruits. Limit the intake of red meat and processed meat, and avoid foods high in fat, salt and sugar. Keep your weight within the normal range and prevent obesity.
2. Strengthen exercise. Do 3-5 cardio exercises and 2-3 strength training workouts of 30-60 minutes each week. Aerobic exercise such as jogging, swimming, brisk walking, etc., can enhance cardiopulmonary function. Strength training can increase muscle strength and improve basal metabolism.
3. Schedule regularly and ensure adequate sleep. Adults need 7-9 hours of sleep per day. Lack of sleep increases the risk of disease.
4. Stop smoking and limit alcohol. Tobacco is a risk factor for various cancers and heart disease, and should be completely smoke-free. Alcohol abuse can also damage multiple systems in the body and should be consumed in moderation.
5. Check regularly. Conduct a health check-up once a year to screen for common diseases and detect problems early. Men over the age of 40 should be screened for prostate cancer.
6. Actively treat underlying diseases. For chronic diseases such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia, medication should be prescribed according to the doctor's advice to control the progression of the disease.
7. Maintain mental health and avoid excessive stress. Learn ways to relax stress, communicate with people, participate in social activities, and stay positive.
8. Protect reproductive health. Practice safe sex and regularly check your reproductive system, and seek medical attention if you are uncomfortable.
9. Pay attention to personal hygiene. Keep the lower part clean to avoid infection. Hand hygiene can prevent the spread of disease.
10. Get vaccinated. Influenza vaccination protects against influenza, and human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine protects against related cancers.
Through the above preventive measures, the risk of common diseases in men can be reduced, but it should be noted that preventive measures need to be consistent in order to have a long-term effect.
At the same time, regular check-ups are also necessary to avoid neglecting the early symptoms of the disease. In general, developing healthy lifestyle habits and paying attention to disease screening are key to reducing the risk of disease and improving the quality of life for men.
So why are there male doctors in obstetrics and gynecology?
There are certain reasonable considerations in the arrangement of male doctors in obstetrics and gynecology, but they also need to pay attention to protecting the privacy of patients, and the professional answer is as follows:
1. Regardless of gender, male doctors can acquire obstetrics and gynecology knowledge and skills through learning. The exclusion of male talents will weaken the overall strength of the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department.
2. Patients are quite different, and different cultural backgrounds will have different dependence on the gender of doctors. Female physicians only cannot accommodate all patient preferences.
3. For some complex surgeries such as gynecological tumor resection, male doctors have the advantage of physical strength and can perform delicate and physically demanding operations. Proper arrangement of male doctors can help improve the success rate of surgery.
4. Teamwork is becoming increasingly important in modern medicine. Male and female doctors can cooperate with each other to improve the quality of obstetrics and gynaecology care. A single-sex team also has professional blind spots.
5. Medical education needs to allow doctors to receive multidisciplinary training, and obstetrics and gynecology should also provide internship opportunities for medical students to improve medical skills education. Deprivation may affect talent development.
6. However, male doctors need to strengthen professional ethics training, strictly abide by the principle of confidentiality, and do not disclose patient privacy without consent. The procedure should be fully explained and the patient's opinion should be sought during examination and treatment.
7. Examinations and treatments of the exposed lower part may be done by a female doctor or accompanied by a female nurse, and patients should also be provided with the right to choose a doctor of the same sex.
8. Hospitals should establish a supervision mechanism and formulate standardized work processes to prevent male doctors from crossing the boundary. Female health care workers should be present to supervise when necessary.
9. Male doctors should receive gender sensitivity training, pay attention to the psychological and physical needs of patients from a female perspective, and improve the quality of services.
10. Strengthen doctor-patient communication, let patients understand their rights, and if there is any discomfort, they can change doctors or stop treatment.
In summary, the existence of male doctors in obstetrics and gynecology has a certain degree of rationality, but it is necessary to do a good job in confidentiality and supervision to ensure medical ethics and patients' rights and interests. Male and female doctors need to respect and trust each other and work together to improve the level of service.
epilogue
Xiaoyu's encounter made us see the importance of mutual respect and trust between doctors and patients.
In the face of the patient's private parts, Ms. Li handled it with professional ethics and did not show any embarrassment.
She carefully explains each step, reassures the patient in a kind tone, and correctly instructs the patient on how to protect the wound. When the patient has an unexpected reaction, he is also unimpressed, so that the patient does not feel embarrassed.
As a doctor, it is a job duty to handle the patient's private parts, and it is necessary to maintain a professional perspective. By informing the procedure in advance, covering the non-examination area, and taking privacy measures, the patient's discomfort can be reduced. Pay attention to the patient's reaction, if there is discomfort, stop or change the same-sex doctor.
Trust and communication between doctors and patients is also important. Patients should learn to relax and understand the professionalism of doctors. Choosing a doctor you trust and focusing on the examination itself can also reduce embarrassment. Doctors should gain the trust of patients through words and behavior, so that patients can receive treatment with peace of mind.
Xiaoyu gained valuable experience from Ms. Li. As a doctor, professional skills and medical ethics are equally important. She will take this as a lesson and strive to cultivate medical ethics and become a good doctor who can build mutual trust with patients. He believes that professional doctors can resolve embarrassment and pass more warmth to patients.
