Military urologist makes a great point...

I’m going to be straight with my like…16 followers. As a military urologist if scrotal swelling was a vaccine side effect I would be the first to know. No one is more attentive to their testicles than men in the military.

My college roommate is a primary care provider. He is built like a professional wrestler and has huge hands. I have often commented that I feel bad for his male patients who need a fobt or prostate exam.

My previous dentist in Tucson was a big German guy who looked like the stereotypical Burgomeister. He just needed a pair of lederhosen and a bierstein to complete the look. Hands like hams.
He sold his practice to a female dentist: good-looking, tall and willowy. She could fit both hands in there with an assortment of power tools.
I was happy.

.... to their testicles than men in the military.

Ask any military medic they will all agree. The "family jewels" or the "boys" were always of great concern.

You just have to shake your head and wait for the next STUPID delusional lies.

As an urgent care NP, I’d say ALL men will come running when there is a problem there. No physical in 10 years? Never had lipids checked? No colonoscopy if indicated? But the moment there is a problem with the genitals they are in the clinic

The story of the year, a young man, loosely use that title, came to ER with deadly infection, he tried to use a sports ball pump with the pin, to blow up his testicles. I guess to be manly. Nearly died, lost a ball to infection. Just think, all he needed was a free vaccine against Covid. I guarantee he is a trumper, and would never allow an injection putting unknowns into his temple of a body. When women speak of the importance of size, I am guessing it’s not the balls that they speak of. I may be wrong.

In this same county, 30 years ago way up a rural road, there was a major bust of a home performing testicular transplants with nuptials. Medal balls. No medical degrees where involved. Back woods as it gets. That same stretch of road, lots of homes, ALL fly Trump flags and “Don’t Tread on Me”. FreeDumb. Keep gubment away from our balls.

My daughter’s 5th grade class had a field trip one day to the court house. They took them to expose them to the court and a trial situation. Faculty did not realize the particular trial in session. They had to quickly leave after the Bailiff told them this may NOT be the teaching moment you think. But the news was so big, her and her friends knew why they were shuffled out. Yea, we were famous for a day or so.

Can you provide any clues as to how to find this national news story?

I'm absolutely dying of curiosity but can't figure out what to search under to find it.

Early to mid nineties. Up Allen’s Creek Road. 2 main defendant’s, but if I remember it was more than those guys. I will try to find a key word or 2 that may help search it.

FYI Doc, all of us men are extremely attentive to our testicles -- and things appurtenant thereof, i.e., the penis.
