That about sums up my day today. This is a rant post. Please add on if your day was also dumb.

1. 90% of my patients were morbidly obese and smelled of fumunda because they can't reach all their nooks and cranies when they bathe (if they bathe)

2. Gravida 13, Para 6, 7 spontaneous abortions with pelvic pain who left a tampon in her kooka for 2 weeks causing me to skip lunch. The smell is burned into my memory

3. The triage nurse who hates me for some reason.

Actually had that situation the other day , had to put foley into pt. raised the covers, and..............blechhhh.

That's when I dress in almost full hazmat gear. The body suit. It's one if those smells that if you accidentally get labial folds on your forearm, you're gonna smell like it all shift. Ohh lawd!

I just shuddered. And threw up in my mouth a little.

Pt thought it was a good idea to leave some ribs from a restaurant IN THE CAR OVERNIGHT (and mind you I live in TX where it is still blazing hot and it's still like 80 degrees in the evening) and decided to eat them the next day. 90 minutes after eating they end up in the waiting room actively vomiting.

I just don't get these people. Or the other super stars that have been mentioned in this thread.

Some days I wish I had Willie Wonka's golden egg scales. The all the bad eggs would just drop to the incinerator.

You'd be surprised...how does a member get bent???

Generally speaking, an unfortunate combination of enthusiasm coupled with bad aim.

Although, I did recently encounter this less than safe cultural practice:

In some Middle East regions, men engage in a practice known as taqaandan ("to click" in Kurdish), explains Dr. Javaad Zargooshi, urology professor at Kermanshah University of Medical Sciences inIran. It's a painless process, similar to knuckle-cracking, in which the top half of an erect member is bent forcefully while the rest of the shaft is held stationary.

I'm aware HOW...I was responding to the poster in relation to a stuck, ahem, "ring"...by force....

A friend of mine has a perfectly applicable saying for those times when the stupid all show up at once...

The stupid is strong today...

As for the smell? A bit of fumunda, athlete's foot, week old secretions from god knows where... perhaps mixed with C-Diff... I'm all too familiar with that smell.

I know it's worse when you have to change them out of their street clothes and into a gown. About the only thing that gets that odor out of clothes is a HUGE helping of oxyclean... or a bonfire.

When I first started in the ER my co-workers taught me to leave certain population's shoes ON for that very reason!
