Doctor spreading a guy’s urethral meatus

@ChrisExam Interesting - did they say what they were looking for with the torch?

On one visit to the clinic, I reported some slight soreness in my penis, so I think looking into my urethra was him checking for any problems as part of the visual inspection (in the end, it was nothing and just went away). Then it's happened a few times since, presumably checking that everything is OK, since it's on my notes.

Yes - I've also had the doctor insert the swab into my urethra lots of times. And being a gay man who has passive penetrative sex, I always get a swab inside my rectum and down my throat too.

Every time I have had a genital exam the doctor has done this. I am uncircumcised so only differences between exams is whether the Dr asks me to retract my foreskin or they do it. Then they either have gently squeezed the tip and assume it opens enough to see or just gently open it which I think gives them a better look.

In the few times that the doctor has examined my penis there is a quick squeeze of the tip.

I would say more times than not, this happened

My pediatrician always did that and my urologist does it also.

My new PCP, a female, did a complete thorough exam , head to toe When lying on the table, she slipped my gown down to my pelvis, pressed all around my torso, then Lowered my gown to my ankles and said she was going to do a pelvic exam. She then felt around my pubic hair area, asked questions about my previous hernia, then asked if I had urinary issues. I said no and she said she was going to open up my penis tip and later check my prostate. She proceeded to hold my penis, open up the end with one hand then shined a light into itl saying everything looked fine. Completed a testical exam and then had me stand up for a hernia exam.

I remember after getting an infection with my urethra after putting a cotton swab in, went to see a family doctor and I’m having so much pain trying to pee and was embarrassed too. When the doctor see my penis I was a little bit hard. And he just Touch to see if there is any issue on my penis and gave me some pain killers for the pain in my urethr.

I can't remember anyone doing it to me, and I don't think I've ever done it while examining a patient.

In most every genital exam I have had my doctor has used his index finger and thumb to squeeze my glans as a way to open my meatus. When I was younger he would at times treat it a bit like a game and make jokes.

You have got to be kidding.

The only time that I remember having the Dr. preform a meatus check was when I was a kid. I think back then it was something for pre pubescents or youth sports physicals. I do not ever remember being checked in high school or in my 20's for this check.

I’ve had doctors and nurse practitioners both pull me open with both thumbs and squeeze the tip. One nurse practitioner looked inside with a light too. I didn’t ask any questions.

This has been pretty standard for me going back to at least when I was a teen. Both my regular doctors and my urologist have done this.

I've had this every time a doctor has ever touched my penis tbh. Checks for discharge, that the urethra opens properly, etc

In my experience, it is standard practice during a genital examination for the doctor to squeeze the top and bottom of the glans with thumb and index finger so that the urethral meatus open a little.

I've never had this done in a real exam. Almost all the time, all of the touching is done to my scrotum and testicles. Over the years, I've had a doctor move my penis around a little one or twice, but I suspect they were just looking. I never had the meatus spread.

I have, on multiple occasions, had this done. I try not to look, so I can't honestly say whether it was dripping or not.

@Eyeman That sounds like an exam I would want to have

I’ve never had it done during a real physical examination but I’ve experienced it many times from various play Dr’s. As a play Dr is generally more thorough during a genital examination, they tend to prolong that section of the exam and do all procedures they deem necessary

Obviously, when one has to have an STD swab taken the doctor must hold the male patient's penis to open it up for the insertion. However, in a routine exam with no swabbing being done, I have only once had a doctor open mine and that was in my early teens when he noticed I was dripping precum. I remember being quite embarrassed at the time, but the entire exam was just so erotic to me even at that young age.

As long as I can remember it has been a standard part of my exams. Starting in my early teens to present with all my doctors . Including those doctors I have had maybe once for my h.s. sports, college, employment physicals have done this. I am uncircumcised so they all would first retract my foreskin and check my glans. Then they gently squeezed or spread the tip open for a look. On one occasion, I had a doctor used a light while checking . Another doctor, while he had my meatus open ran his finger down across my urethra opening checking for any discharge. It was very intense and exciting feeling.

Back in college I was dating a girl who was very straightforward with her desires and demands. Early on she told me she wanted to have sex, but first I had to go to the school clinic and get an STD test. I had no symptoms and not many past partners, so I thought it was not that necessary, but she was insistent and super hot.

So I went and got tested. I didn’t know what to expect, so I just had the usual doctor visit nervousness. I think there was a blood draw, or at least a finger prick. Then I had to drop my pants. The nurse was wearing gloves, and she held my penis, squeezed the tip to open the slit, and swabbed the inside of my urethra. I remember it did not feel good, probably due to the swab being dry and that area being so sensitive. The test was over quickly and a couple days later I received the all clear. When I showed her the results she was so excited and started bouncing around, whisper singing “We’re gonna fuck tonight. We’re gonna fuck tonight.” She was a fun freaky girl and we fucked frequently. We had lots of oral sex and vaginal sex.

She did let me put her vibrator in her ass under the condition that she could put it in my ass. We had a great 4 months of sexual exploration.

After a car wreck they found blood in my urine. Further diagnostics required catheterization. Don't remember if it was Dr. or a nurse but she was cute. Despite my banged up condition, I enjoyed her spreading my meatus and easing the catheter down my urethra.

Ive never had this happen in a real exam, but had my meatus spread and thoroughly inspected by a play doc.

I've been to the urologist a couple times, and that's pretty standard. Or the couple times I've been to the STD clinic in college.

Spreading the urethral meatus is part of a complete male genital exam.

I volunteer as a physical exam teaching assistant at a medical school. PETAs help first year med and PA students practicing body systems exams; neuro, cardiac, pulmonary, abdominal, skeletal and GU/Gyn. They have a checklist to follow, which is fairly detailed.

For the GU exam, the checklist begins with the visual exam then genital palpation, hernia check, ending with a DRE. I'm one of the favorites since I have a small palpable varicocele and inguinal hernia. Opening the meatus is a required step on the checklist.

I will have 8-12 students in an afternoon session and usually have 3-4 session over two weeks while students are studying the GU system. Students are slow and deliberative taking 15-20mins each usually with multiple attempts to find my hernia or varicocele. The instructor will often step in to demonstrate a proper technique and the student tries again. To my surprise, 60-65% are female. Some are touching a penis for the first time and it shows. Most are nervous (very cold gloved hands).

I'm now used to having 8-12 DREs in a day. I also know to make sure all finger nails are appropriately trimmed LOL.

I have never had my urethra examined in this manner by my general practitioner during my annual physical exams or by my company’s do during my regular employment exams. The only time the tip of my penis was squeezed or spread open for a visual examination of the urethra was by my urologist after being referred to him for hematuria.

O.K. I'll try to say this without sounding disjointed or unconnected {so many stroke's so little brain} I'm on my 11th catheter change now . Only one nurse really looked at and really checked my meatus or penis. Even the urologist didn't really look or examine me that well and left me with the opinion that he really didn't know as much as he should.

Only one of the many nurses that have changed my catheter looked, spread me almost painfully open and took care inserting my new one. That time and only that time did I go though the month without any problems. No leaking around the outside of the catheter, no feeling like I had a large butt plug in my ass. But she was a substitute for my regular nurse.

Now don't get me wrong but yes I did feel really embarrassed having my penis manipulated in the way's she did but the result was my comfort and I was very grateful after. She took almost an hour to change my catheter, my regular nurse is out the door in 10 min or less.

The first time I had a doctor squeeze the tip of my penis and look inside my urethra was when I was just starting puberty. Unfortunately, I got an erection and it was a very embarrassing experience for me at that age.

At my first exam with my new doctor, she picked up my penis and looked at the top and gave it a gentle squeeze but didn’t exactly spread it open.
