Wait till they add the prostate exam to checking vital signs

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 8 points 2 weeks ago

Core body temperature is a vital sign. Guess the most clinically accurate way to measure that one.

Not by prostate exam, that's for sure.

[-] Shard@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Close. It's known as rectal temperature

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah, I know. It's not a prostate exam.

The net result is similar, though

[-] Mango@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I don't wanna wait.

Not really a prostrate exam but one of the first things trauma docs do is cut the pants off and put a finger up the bum to test spinal function
