The funny and sad stories from the clinic
Hanoi Medical University Hospital has just admitted a 19-year-old male student to the hospital in a state of urine bowel movements, mixed with blood. Previously, the patient inserted a headphone line longer than 1 meter into his urethra after watching a porn clip and following instructions online.
Because the rope was coiled and stuck in the bladder, the male student tried to remove it but the section was broken, and had to be hospitalized after a day of pain. X-ray and ultrasound determined that the foreign object was located throughout the bladder. The medical team successfully endoscoped a 10cm long wire with a 3.5mm jack, preserving the structure of the bladder and urethra.
Doctors at E Hospital (Hanoi) have just given emergency care to a 25-year-old man in Ha Nam who was bleeding in the kinal area and could not be stopped after accidentally having his forehead circumcision at home.
The patient felt inferiority complex due to long headaches, researched online and hired a barber to perform the procedure. After the cut, the blood kept flowing, forcing him to be hospitalized. Dr. Lien instructed on blood counting and injury recovery online. If not closely monitored, the cut can leave scars and dangerous complications.
Dr. Nguyen Dinh Lien - Head of the Department of Nephrology, Urology and Andrology, E Hospital warned that the situation of circumcision of the walking forehead is increasing, many people do not have medical expertise but still do it. Previously, there was a case of hiring a tattoo artist to perform circumcision, leading to a lot of bleeding due to the metal stuck coming out, and had to be taken to the emergency room.
According to regulations, circumcision is a type 3 surgery, only performed in a hospital with a specialist. Doctors recommend that people should not do it at home, to avoid serious consequences.
Unpredictable consequences of rare male accidents
Dr. Nguyen Ba Hung - Vinmec International General Hospital said that many men are shy, subjective or believe in folk methods, so they should self-treat their male diseases at home instead of going to a doctor. They buy medicine themselves, apply tips to treat diseases without scientific basis, leading to serious health consequences.
The consequences of self-treatment are urinary tract infections, testicular inflammation, and prostate inflammation. If not treated properly, it can progress severely, bacteria are resistant to drugs, and are more difficult to control.
Abusing antibiotics and herbal medicine of unknown origin can cause endocrine disorders, liver and kidney damage, heart failure, and stroke. Using the wrong medicine can cause physiological decline, infertility, widespread inflammation, and even be life-threatening.
Doctor Nguyen Ba Hung advised that men with unusual signs need to see a specialist instead of self-treatment. Don't be afraid to trade your health - complying with medical prescriptions is the best way to protect yourself.
