Femoral pulses

Having only seen them performed via video and never having actually experienced one being performed on me, they seem potentially alluring.

Making me wonder, have any of you who HAVE HAD them taken, boned up or at least started to, from the experience?

Yes definitely started to get a boner as they lower the waistband of my boxers and reach in to feel my pulse and push the stethoscope under, pushing my willy out the way.

I am not certain if thee is any set of symptoms or issues outside of a cardiology workup that would trigger a doc to do this. I have had them, on occasion, in routine physicals over they years. I believe the last time was when I visited an older female doctor from India. She also, I believe, checked the carotid as well.

As far as someone else mentioning the "boner", I was already getting a bit up and I'm not certain how much of an impact this had on the situation "at hand".

I find it's just routine that the doc will check my peripheral pulses when I have a physical. As well as the normal cardio places on my chest, sides and back, they'll ausculate my neck, femoral pulses, abdominal pulses (just above and either side of my bellybutton) and the popliatal pulses behind both knees.

... and the popliatal pulses behind both knees.

Never heard of that one before

Sorry, had spelt it wrong, it's the popliteal pulse, an example here at 4:50:

Never saw a stethoscope applied to the back of the knee

Yeah. It's not something you encounter often. For a thing I had done long ago they did it and also took blood pressure on leg/behind knee with the blood pressure cuff.

During complete examinations, the doctor listens to the femoral pulsations, but also at the carotids, elbows, wrists, knees and ankles.

I’d say it’s about 50/50 as to whether they check my femoral pulse. Depends on the doctor.

I love it because i touch the power of heart

I have had my femoral pulses palpated and auscultated during numerous exams. A big turn on for me as my pubic hair is usually on display!

I always make sure to check the femoral pulse in any play exam. After all, if my patient is naked in the stirrups, why not have even more fun teasing with a nice, cold stethoscope?

Although I can't remember ever having my femoral pulses checked, I do think it's a very hot concept. The idea of exposure, or almost exposure, or a brief glimpse of my genitals as I lie there vulnerable on the table. The doctor's hands and fingers, or possibly stethoscope, right next to my genitals. It's all a real turn on! I would be so afraid of getting an erection.

I have been in the room during some of my daughter's sports physicals for school. The doctor checked her femoral pulse on both sides individually, then checked each side while simultaneously checking the pulse in her ankle. She said it was to verify they were in sync and there wasn't a blood clot in the leg.

Just to clarify, my daughter was fully dressed during the physical, the doctor just reached down the top of her shorts a little to feel the pulse. There was nothing weird going on.

I had my femoral pulses checked once when I was 13. When starting High School, they informed me that I was missing a vaccination from my vaccination record and needed to get it. After talking with our regular doctor, he said he had no record of me getting that vaccine. I think my mother took my to a neighborhood clinic to get it when I was a baby and the record somehow never made it to my doctor.

Anyway, long story short, my doctor didn't have the vaccine in his office but sent us to another pediatrician who had it. I thought I was just going to go in, get the shot and be on my way. When we got there the nurse announced that since the doctor didn't know me he was going to do a quick physical before giving me the shot. Because of this unexpected turn I suddenly became extremely nervous and anxious. My pulse started racing wildly. Now I was worried I was going to be asked to undress as I usually had to do with my usual doctor. The combination of the unexpected turn and the strange doctor and office had me really going. I was not asked to undress, but when the nurse took my BP she commented that it was extremely high as was my pulse. She asked me if I was worried about the shot and I said no. She asked me to lay down and try to relax. The doctor then came in and took my BP again then proceeded to check my pulse in various places. Wrists, neck, ankles, but then he started to unbutton and unzip my pants. Well of course that made my BP and pulse go even higher. He then stuck his hand down my pants and checked my femoral pulses on both sides. He never used a stethoscope to listen to my pulses, he just felt them. He then told my mother that he was concerned about my BP and pulse rate but gave me the shot anyway. He then told us to follow up with our regular doctor regarding my high BP and pulse rate. My regular doctor seemed unconcerned and told me my BP was normal. I chalked it up to nerves.

Today I do have high BP and the truth is, I think that other doctor probably picked up on the beginnings of it where my regular doctor just blew it off. Sure it was high because of my anxiety, but I think it revealed how I was going to susceptible to high BP later on. But that is the one and only time I ever had my femoral pulses checked.

I always assess femoral pulses when conducting a role play examination both digitally and with the stethoscope.

As patient I find having my femoral pulses checked embarrassing and exciting.
