I know this is a terrible habit, though, so I work hard to pare it back.

Story time! I was trying to push an incarcerated umbilical hernia that was causing a small bowel obstruction. Aka: the guy's small intestine got pushed through a pocket at his belly button, and the pinch was blocking his gut. There are some bad things that can result from this, so popping that sucker back through the buttonhole was important. Pushing on a trapped loop of small intestine hurts, obviously, and the patient got upset. Patient: Dude. I said it hurts. Why are you pushing it?! Me: Well, you have a small bowel obstruction. We gotta fix this! Patient: I don't even know what that is! Why are you hurting me? Me: OK. Let me explain. Sir, if we don't push this lump back in, you're gonna start sh*tting outta your mouth. Soon. Patient: .... .... ............... Alright. I got you. Do it. I'm ready. Thankfully, after some aggressive gentle pressure, we reverted his anatomy so he no longer had the digestive tract of a sea anemone . High fives all around.

Report B: "12 hours post medication, the PT remains at full mast. We've not been able to induce half mast despite first threatening to stick a needle into the member, and when that proved unsuccessful we were forced to actually do the needle aspiration.
