1964 pediatric ward admission exam

The nurse had me submitted to the following exams: Weight and hight mesutme, BP, blood samples then lastly temperature. I was sitting up on exam table watching what she was doing facing the exam equipment cabinet. I saw her take from back of the cabinet a large jar of Vaseline she removed a thermometer will red tip end. The nurse lubicated the silver bulb with a glob of Vaseline. She then was standing next to the exam table holding the thermometer and said Bell I need to check your temperature I need you to turnover on your tummy it’s more accurate this way. She then pulled my PJ’s down and inserted the thermometer into my rectum. She then said again Bell it’s more accurate this way I was 13 years old then.

Sounds very familiar. I was in the hospital as a kid in the late fifties to late sixties. The routine was always the same. I was separated from my mom at the admitting office and escorted to the ward by a candy striper. There I was met by the nurse who took me to a bed in the ward. She would hand me a large paper grocery sack and tell me to takes off all my clothes and put the in the sack. She also handed me a hospital gown to put on. The nurse would leave for a few minutes and take my clothes who knows where. She would return with a push cart and begin taking vital signs. I would sit on the edge of the bed with my gown lowered to my waist. Checked to my heart and lungs. Took blood pressure and of course rolled onto my side for a rectal temp. Then came the worst part for me, the blood draws with the large bore needles of the day. Twice I was treated to a urinary catheter for a sterile urine draw. Visiting hours were restricted and so this was all done without benefit of my mom being with me.

Was very similar here in uk nurse take you from mother at sisters office take you to ward once there there undress you start obs once bottom bare the thermometer be inserted took cloths away back to sisters officer leaving me bare bum on bed with thermometer inserted

When I was 18 my parents took me to the hospital to have plastic surgery. After nurse took vitals she said I could just hang out a get into pajamas when I was ready since surgery wasn't until next day. A young doctor came and introduced himself and said when I got into my pajamas he would give me a entrance exam. My parents said they were going to leave and cooperate with doctor. I got into my pajamas and doctor came in and pulled curtain around bed. I had to unbutton my pajama top and he listened with his stethoscope. He then moved a pillow towards my lower back. I was sort of arched. He opened the snaps on my pajama bottoms and pulled down my bottoms and underwear. He examined my penis and testicles. He then had me roll over on my side and spread my butt cheeks. He looked at my hole and then said I could get dressed. I had to stand up to pull my underwear and pajamas up which were now at my ankles and my top wS open. He watched as I got dressed. I was embarrassed but now a great fantasy.

When I was 18 my parents took me to the hospital to have plastic surgery.

What kind of plastic surgery would one get at 18 and would it have warranted a full body exam as described?
