Most disgusting thing you have witnessed or taken part of on the job?

Published

I saw this post on another general discussion website, and by far this is the most disgusting thing i have read.

TheAmbassador posted:

My aunt is a nurse, and she told me a hell of a story about this. Wasn't too outrageous, but its just a testament to a man's dedication to sex.

She was assisting a doctor with a severely morbidly obese woman. Apparently she had managed to contract a huge amount of STD's, which she had ignored for months, because apparently the hideous stench of it wasn't able to overpower the stench from the months of sweat and dirt accumulated in her folds. Side note about that, think about the last time you worked outdoors with your hands. If you rubbed your hands together, little balls of dirt mixed with sweat would form. Imagine those now to be nearly basketball sized and flattened, mixed with discharge from yeast infections stored for months in the folds of fat. That is this woman.

Anyway, my aunts job was to hold the folds up while the doctor went in to clean up. She's a nurse, she's cleaned **** and puke off old people that was there so long it began to corrode their skin, and she had to leave to vomit.

After everything is done, the woman's husband shows up, skinny, ratty looking guy, and she asks for him to be let in. At one point, talking to the man, the doctor asked, out of sheer curiosity, how the two of them have sex. The man was happy to answer.

He places her into the corner of the room, face first. Then, using a lot of tape, straps each of her butt cheeks to the wall, and ***** her until they tear free.

Why would a doctor ask how a couple has sex? A little inappropriate don't you think? That entire story was deeply disturbing from start to finish.

When I worked in cardiovascular surgery we were prepping a patient for open heart and I lifted up the folds of her belly and found a moldy sandwich... I was actually gagging... Yuck...

We should compile the top 10 grossest stories. That is sick. I am nominating that one for top 10.

I cant top any of these, all I have had are messy code browns, nasty decubs, lice, scabbies and bloody code stories. Now I feel like a noob.

These stories are utterly gross...disturbing...buy laugh out loud funny. Thanks.

Hey, what do you mean "she was palliative"?

yes, i asked the other because it sounds like he uses it out of context.

We had this lady a few weeks ago who had one of those mucous secreting uterine tumours. She was palliative but needed to have the mucous removed because she looked as though she was 8 months pregnant and it was causing her severe discomfort.

So she had a laparotomy and we removed the stuff by the bucket load. It was one of the most disgusting things I've ever seen.

device, are you talking about scrubby's post?

she is the only one who mentioned palliative...

and this pt sounds perfectly appropriate for comfort measures.

just wondering.

"I remember having to manually disimpact an elderly lady who hadn't had a bowel movement for 2 weeks. It really did seem more like I was helping her deliver a baby. It was the biggest poop I'd ever seen. In addition her roomate could hear what was going on, and kept yelling out "puuuuuuush".

I am rolling on the floor!!!!:hhmth:
