TIL. Seems to be a rigid scope, so:

Rigid cystoscope: These cystoscopes don’t bend. Your provider may pass instruments through the tube to perform biopsies or remove tumors. This cystoscope is usually only used with sedation or general anesthesia.

Doesn’t explain the other hand though.

No, it doesn’t. The surgeons I work with don’t do prostate manipulation when they insert the scopes, but my guess is that it’s a way to straighten out the urethra to assist with scope insertion in awake or lightly sedated patients (with local anaesthesia).

  When you say “straighten out the urethra”, is that professional medical-speak for “fingerblast his p spot to get him hard”?

    I assume you’re making a joke, but just in case you weren’t, it is not.

    It was at least half joking, but I am genuinely curious how the finger in his ass would straighten the urethra. Is it the internal part of the urethra that needs straightening, and if so, can you really just push it around from the anus like that?
