Patient DH0907041 Appointment: July 4, 2009 at 12:53 pm

Patient looking very tense as he lies fully naked on the examination table at the start of his physical examination

Male physical exam patient lies naked on the table and positioned on his side as his doctor tries to perform a rectal examination

The doctor moves his patient to a different position in order to complete his rectal examination

As we can see, today’s male physical examination patient appears quite tense right from the start of his check-up.

I don’t know whether the patient’s tension is the direct cause (e.g. ‘sphincter clenching’!) but the doctor has to try a number of positions for the patient before a rectal examination is able to be successfully (and relatively comfortably) performed.
