One told to me by a A&E doctor.
Woman comes in, experiencing unusual discharge.
Turns out that she had been stimulating herself with a peeled banana two weeks previously and some of it stayed behind.

Although not a medical professional a friend of mine is a firefighter. One day his watch are called to the large hospital in the town where he works. It turns out a bloke had admitted himeslf to A and E with something stuck around his wanger. This bloke had put his c*ck through a keyring, then got wood and presumably had a good sherman- four or five days ago no less. He's had wood for the best part of five days and it's still not gone down. This blokes old chap is and I quote 'the size of a can of lager'. Not only that it is an interesting purpley red and stinks. His c*ck has started to rot.
The doctors and nurses trying to remove the keyring are struggling to remove it as every time they attempt to remove said keyring it hurts a fair bit. Needless to say they guys from trumpton remove it eventually. When asked how it got on his wanger the bloke replies 'my flatmate put it on me when I was asleep'.

Mrs saw an unfortunate patient with abdominal pain, "nasty discharge" and no womanly cycles for several months. Long story short: they discovered the top off a deodorant can "up there".
Pulled it out, and it was quickly followed by months worth of rotting menstrual waste.

Cue much gagging and people leaving the room hurriedly.

one of the less engaging procedures i've ever had to witness was a correction for peyronies disease, described here as a nesbit plication
and really, honestly if you're at work, despite it being a medical thing as above i really wouldn't, especially if you're in any way male

aside from the whole sharp thing/needle/knife/penis conjunction which is bad enough, the sound as the shaft is effectively skinned, will live with me till the day i die.

I'm not in the medical field but I once took a 5 day cycle - camping trip with a bunch of OB / GYN's .. a mostly quiet lot but after a few whisky^s one night the conversation came around to "the weirdest thing I ever found was.."

and the winner was:

a vienna sausage.

vienna sausage you say. okay, in the style of the above forum...

if while making tea for your children it is not your duty as the man of the house to explore what might happen if you shoved a piece of said spaghetti down your urethra. yes, it will snap. yes, it will expand. yes you will have emergency surgery and return with a suprapubic catheter

swiss01 -- thanks for that mental image.

When this post first started I was thinking of my experience post prostate cancer surgery of a young nurse removing my catheter and giving me a little wash up.

52 years I had waited for a young cute nurse to give me a little fumble like that and then when it DID happen it was about a week too late.

😳 😥

A friend of mine is a doc and saw a patient around new year unable to go for a pee. Turns out there was a turkey wishbone stuck in his urethra - of course, when the patient was asked how it got there he said he swallowed it as part of his Christmas dinner.

Best Ive been told-

Coat hanger in man rear (curly side).

Pool ball in man rear.

Above both results of 'falling'.

Broken test tube in lady front.

Milk bottle in lady front, stuck due to vaccuum effect.

I have been told other stories but they would get me in trouble.

Mrs' mate saw a man with a dinner fork up his 'arris. Completely inside, beyond "the point of no return" with the prongs facing down.

Apparently he was a regular who just enjoyed having things removed. 😯

When finished he asked for the fork back... so his wife wouldn't miss it.

I did however notice something was missing - pre surgery maybe?

Ah yes, the [i]accidental[/i] urethra insertion. Many years ago I was working in a large A&E dept when a chap came in with a length of thin fuse wire up his urethra whilst 'just fixing a fuse'. Oh, also someone with the top off a bottle of mum deodarant up their bum - another classic 'just got out of the shower' excuse. (yea...right)

Mrs' mate did have a delusional guy freaking out in a room. He threw literally everything in the room at the medical team. When he ran out of things to throw he started swinging his catheter bag above his head.. then threw that at them too.. while the other end was still in his boaby.. with the balloon inflated.

Cue slow-motion "Nnnoooooo" moment from team, followed by lots of screaming from bloke!

ex wife came across a guy in A&E who had taken the spring off a chest expander and shoved it up the dirt shute. tried to pull it out, it expanded, then contracted trapping some colon/sphincter etc. he did a fair old bit of panic induced tugging at home, and when he got to A&E it was too late and he ended up dead etc. be careful peeps.

I used to work as a Police Officer, a young Bengali boy in agony came in saying he'd been assaulted (for messing around with someone's sister)

Fresh crushed chillis, a broom handle and retribution, roughly dished out as per the current theme of this thread apparently 😯

I think all A&E/Obs&Gyn wards should be required by law to keep a "Treasure Chest" display, with explanatory notes and x-rays for each object.

Would certainly be better than reading a tattered copy of Bella from 1987.

heard a story from a nurse i once knew:

guy comes in in a flasher mac bent over double, saying he needs to see a doctor, the nurses tell him that they need to assess him and will then refer him to a doctor, this goes on for a while with the man getting more and more distressed - in the end one of the doctors takes him in a cubicle and he reveals what is under the coat, a cocker spaniel impaled on his knob!!! whilst buggering the dog it had died and was now stuck, having contracted. 😯 they had to operate and remove the dead dog!!

Greatest line I heard on one of these cases was the bloke who had "slipped" and "accidentally" impaled himself on a coke bottle.

Nurse, completely deadpan, comments: "its a good thing it was covered in vaseline then, otherwise that could have hurt" 😆

Yep, it's those handy tips which makes STW so worthwhile.

And I'll certainly be careful with what I do with "the spring off a chest expander" in the future .........I can tell you

Oh my good god, I'm trying to keep a straight face in the office here...

I lived with 3 radiologists at one time, all chain smokers. They told a fair few stories, but the only ones I can remember are of a woman with a potato up her bottom...

Oh well - heard from a mate of mine (no, really) in a & e about a woman that turned up with severe rectal bleeding. Turned out that her husband had pushed a light bulb (candle type) up her tradesman's entrance, and when she came (sorry, sorry) her sphincter contracted and shattered the bulb - cue major surgery...

Apparently the standard procedure for removing lightbulbs from the back passage is to drill a small hole in the bayonet and fill it with fast hardening glue.

Why don't people just buy a **** plug?

Things like carrots / courgettes and stuff you can slightly understand, but screwdrivers, shoes, light-bulbs etc?

Although sometimes i think there's weirdo's who enjoy doing these weird things deliberately. If you look closely there's a fair bit of scarring on the 1 man of 1 jar fame that suggests it wasn't an accident and has probably been done before.

I remember having to go into have my arm x-rayed when I broke it, the radiologist asked if I had any piercing and I said no. Making small talk I asked why she asked the question as I couldn't imagine the odd earring being that much of a problem.

Then she told me she asks everytime now after a bloke came in and had a piercing in his sac for every year he'd been alive - he was 82!!!

Apparently that did cause a problem!

Glad I didn't have to explain it to her husband who was away on a lads weekend when it happened.

One for you Landie drivers.

I was working in A&E in Taunton when this guy came in with his elbow peeled back and the bone sliced through 😯

turns out he was driving his Landie along a country lane with the obulatory elbow out of the drivers window and thought he could get past an on coming milk tanker - you guessed it - ouch

seemingly the wing mirror missed the tail board but the elbow didn't

There was a story a few years ago that a very famous footballers wife had to have "emergency repairs" after a wine bottle damaged her back passage.

Not sure if it was true, but I heard it from an ex-pro player, so it may have been well known amongst the footballing fraternity

I remember whilst working in outback australia having to stitch up a huge gash on the leg of a drunken aussie ferrel in the middle of the night. Throughout the procedure the cretine was repeatedly alling me a Fing pommie C and the like. Glad to get shot of the ****er! However I was delighted the next day when the local plod turned up asking if I had stitched up any big cuts the night before as some idiot had left half his circulating blood volume on a window pane after a break in. I was delighted to shop the ****er! Result

i heard a rumour from a collegue that the weirdest thing he had seen at work was a teacher in a snow flurry. But that just has to be too far fetched to be true!!

OK, as a student nurse 20 years ago I was working on a male GU surgery ward. One of the old charectars on the ward had developed a chest infection post-op and was productive of really foul sputum. He was slightly deaf, & partially sighted.

End of a late shift one evening & I was sat with this guy, he started coughing so I passed him a sputum cup, and said "Use this".

"thanks Jon" he said, before knocking back the contents in one - to say it looked like chip shop mushy peas wouldn't be far off the mark.

I've never come as close to puking on duty as I did that evening!
