Man Injured After Self Circumcision

Well, this is right up there with some of the dumbest stunts to ever make the national news.  A guy in England has been hospitalized and was seriously injured on his penis after he tried to self circumcise with the help of a pair of nail clippers.  I know, sounds painful, right?  Apparently staff said that this would be incredibly painful, even if you had quite a few alcoholic drinks in you, which leads me to believe this man may have been intoxicated when he tried it.  One things for sure, if he was trying to avoid a doctor bill by doing it himself, now he’s got more doctors bills than he can deal with I’m sure, since this kind of injury had to have taken some medications and probably even surgery to fix up.

The news is ablaze with stories like this, men trying to circumcise themselves, or sexually marring themselves or their partners in some way when trying some bizarre sexual stunt.  The safe thing is to say not to do anything out of the ordinary sexually or while not under a doctors care if you’re trying to alter yourself in any way when it comes to your reproductive organs.  Sounds like a pretty safe way to play, right?

In other news of the weird when it comes to men parts, doctors are accused of giving the wrong patient a vasectomy.  The man, in Sweden, has filed a complaint saying that the medical facility confused him with another patient that was schedule to have a vasectomy the next day and instead performed the surgery on him, making him infertile and unable to produce a  child if he wanted to, when all he went in for was a biopsy of his prostate gland, which is a common procedure when checking for cancer and other disorders associated with this male specific gland.

Like I said, news like this seems to come in rashes, and it goes to show that the medical community is capable of screwing up, but people are probably way better at screwing their own bodies up, leaving doctors and nurses to clean up the mess. An  ode to the doctors and nurses that keep us healthy and mend our bodies after we do things with them and to them that aren’t too smart!
