After dialysis the nurse removes all of the blood tubing from the machine. As I was helping I announced " I'm going to strip now"...the patient replied "Go ahead" ....Funny how the most innocent situations take on a different perspective...

Checking a pts. bottom I said, you have two open areas down here....the elderly woman replied, " yes ,I do. Don't you young lady?", then she turned to me and winked.

I actually said this to a male patient today: Spread your buttocks and your legs so I can get this in!

I was packing a pilonidal cyst at the time....

This thread popped into my mind last night as I heard myself say to a new mom I was teaching to breastfeed "You've got great nipples"

I needed a urine sample from a patient and I said, " Don't forget to save your pee for me, "

I was helping a coworker clean up an old fellow who'd been incontinent of loose stool........he also had alot of scrotal edema and was red as a beet. Well as I was gently (or I thought so) wiping his bottom off, he yells out, "OW! MY NUTS" , drawing out the "NUTS". We got more than a few comments from the docs who heard it all from the nurses station.
