  Doctors don’t do that anymore because it’s not a reliable test; they just do blood work now.

  If your doctor still does this, it’s probably for nefarious reasons.

      Your first clue should have been when he had both hands on your shoulders.

      Damn it if he doesn’t have a delicate touch, though.

    You mean it’s not a good sign if the doctor puts both hands on my shoulders during prostata examination?

    Do what? I thought this was a colonoscopy joke, and those are still important.

      The joke is about prostate exams.

      There are blood exams that replace both. There have been for years.

  Y’all visit the doctor? I live in a country with public healthcare and not even I visit a doctor. 🤔 Should I? Approaching 40 for reference.

    About mid 40s there’s definitely some stuff like a colonoscopy to consider. Especially if anything runs in your family

      Its 40 now for colonoscopy. Incidences of colon cancer are trending younger and younger.
