How do you make rectal temperature taking more embarrassing for the patient?

Never did that, but I guess that checking that the panties/briefs are clean would be embarrassing. Or noting it explicitly if the thermometer comes out brownish.

One of my past enema playmates told me she’s has not feeling well. I put my hand on her forehead to see if she has a temperature and said I am not sure but let’s check and make sure you are ok.

I got my candy thermometer out of my bag of enema items kit but she does not see what I am going to use.

I put a towel over the side of the couch and tell her to pull her panties down to her ankles and bend over on the towel. She tells me no this is not a good time right now. After some encouragement and resistanceI she finally slips them down and they fall to her ankles and she lays over the couch.

Depending and the height of the couch and the particular height of the gal it gave a very good view of all her privates. Then found out why she did not want to do it when I was putting on my examination glove and and lubing my middle finger I saw a long string hanging down between her lips.

I did not say anything but pulled the string down to straighten it out and to let her know now I saw it. Then placing my other hand on her back and gently inserted my middle finger till it was all the way inside her and tuned it both ways to lube her bottom real good for what was to come next.

Then told her to take a big breath and slowly pushed the thick thermometer inside her bottom and told her to relax. She commented on how big the thermometer felt inside her. I told her it was a new one and pulled up my chair and was right behind her for 3 to 4 minutes holding it inside her talking with her while bottom fully exposed to me.

After 3 minutes I very slowly pulled it out and wiped her bottom of the KY jelly. Told her she could stand up. She was very surprised how big it was and said that’s what you used in me?

Yes, you were very good and you do not have temperature.

Make observations about their bare behind. If you have another playmate let them play the role of dermatologist.

I’ve had a number of rectal temps in my life, and by far the most embarrassing scenarios involve the explicit possibility of being seen by others. Full nudity is not necessary at all, in fact it just makes it too sexual and more acceptable among adults. Perhaps being well dressed and draping your partner over your lap like a child with underwear at their ankles near a window or in a common room with bottom towards the window. Making declarations about the fact their temp will always be taken rectally, telling them to hold still, etc. Commenting on their bottom. One thing I did once was tell the recipient they seemed to like getting their temp in their bottom, and make them agree or even say it.

Oh my for me it would be a third person observing or assisting the procedure. I've fantasized about this but never had it happen. I'm tempted to ask my play doctor partner if she would mind but hadn't ask her yet. My fantasy is to have someone I know but don't know well be the third person, like atm a certain woman I work with. But I have no idea how this would eventuate.

It’s my feeling that if a rectal temperature is to be taken out of medical necessity or protocol and taken in a non consensual setting; just the fact that he procedure will be required; that in itself may cause a patient both angst and yes, embarrassment.

In a consensual and/ or role play session where the participants have no issue(s) with a rectal temperature being taken on them, most likely it is not an issue unless as part of the session it is feigned.

I would say if it is done in diaper position legs spread

Personally, the most embarrassing thing for me would be to have to spread my bаck cheeks and hold them like that. I'm bent over the exam table, my breasts resting on it, my panties down to my knees. And to make it even more embarrassing, I have to ask the doctor in the most polite way possible to take my rectal temperature.

@examine-me The feeling of helplessness in this situation may be heightened by the fact that just as you hesitantly and bashfully pull your buttocks apart with both hands and ask the doctor to take your rectal temperature, the assistant doctor enters the treatment room. You are informed that he will be attending the examination today, and now you are asked to push a little, as if you were having a bowel movement, so that the already lubricated thermometer can be inserted more easily.

@DrStrict You have no mercy, do you?

@examine-me But he's right! it's easier if you "push" or "bear down", for the thermometer, suppositories, enemas.. And yes it makes you cooperate with the act.

@examine-me Well, if the patient is polite enough to ask for the thermometer, she should also receive the best possible treatment. After all, four eyes see more than two, and if encouraging advice makes the procedure more pleasant, why shouldn't it be given (and followed)? However, if you prefer, the doctor could also carefully, very carefully, lubricate your most intimate opening with a gloved finger, on which plenty of Vaseline has been applied beforehand, repeatedly penetrating you, perhaps even deeper than necessary on one or two occasions...

I think that one way to add embarrassment is to add a little age play into to it. Start with an oral temperature and then tell them that the reading doesn’t look right, maybe feeling their forehead. Then you tell them that your very sorry, but you are going to have retake it with the tushy thermometer. That they are just not ready for the mouth thermometer. Maybe next year. While you are taking it rectally, you could reassure them that some people just take little longer to master the grown up thermometer and that you will put a special red sticker in their file so that the other nurses know what thermometer to use.

Talk to the subject and make it clear they are not in charge and will do as they are told.

I like the idea of having them bent over with chest and head on a table. A bit uncomfortable, and slightly helpless with their upper body weight on a flat surface, head turned to the side with their face resting on the table. Ask them to reach back and pull their cheeks apart. Announce to them “Oh.. Umm.. Ok. Hold it right there, don’t move.” Set down the thermometer and pick up some moist towelettes. Proceeded to wipe their anus up and then down, multiple times. Then announce. “All better, now we can proceed. They will be mortified that they presented as unclean. Insert the thermometer, remind them to keep their cheek parted so as not to impact the reading.

While waiting the required 3 minutes, tell them you see a couple spots that look irritated. Ask them “Does this hurt?” when you touch a few spots. No matter their answer, tell them it is probably just an ingrown hair and you will take care of it now so that it does not get worse. Using tweezers, pluck out a hair. “That one won’t bother you any more.” Remind them to hold still and keep their cheeks parted. Pluck another. Maybe pull on a hair a couple times before pulling it all the way out. “That was a stubborn one.” When you are done, put the tweezers away and then read the thermometer. Don’t tell them to release their grip on their cheeks, just wait. Continue to visually inspect, make sounds like “hmmmm” as if you are studying the situation. If they do let go of their cheeks interrupt with “Aht! Aht! Almost..” then a few moments later announce “Ok, All done. You may let go now.” They will wonder why the extra time was needed.

I AM GENERALLY DOING SOLO ENEMAS. TAKE THEM SLOW AND EASY TO ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT.

For me I think it's the positioning. Knee-chest position, knees spread apart on a male, with the back arched down to stick the butt out to maximum. That makes the buttcheeks spread open pretty wide exposing their hole, and also with the knees spread apart the testicles and penis are hanging freely and will "float" around. Knowing you're THAT exposed from the rear is fairly embarrassing I think.

Hhhhmmm @ruthiney...... I can think as to embarrasse and humiliate a patient male or female, flat on their back. legs in the air being held by the patient. would be an oral thermometer under their tongue and one in their anus, and the last thermometer would be inserted into their ureathra. to get a accurate tempurature.

For me it was mom or dad using their finger to lube that area.. really embarrassing as a teen

For me, it’s always extra embarrassing if I’m told before it happens. Like, "we’re going to check your temperature when we get home". Or even worse, if someone hears or understands that I’m getting my temperature taken. The absolute most humiliating thing about that is if they understand I’m getting temperature checked up the butt.
