Many people dread hospital visits, but health issues often leave us no choice. Unfortunately, not every doctor’s appointment goes smoothly, leading to awkward or surprising moments.
1. The Mystery of the Blue Hands
u/raybanomics: A friend of mine visited the doctor after noticing his hands had turned blue. He was born premature and always had poor circulation. The doctor, baffled by the condition, even consulted other specialists—only to discover it was dye from his blue jeans.
2. Commando Conundrum
u/olialm1: During a routine physical, I forgot I wasn’t wearing underwear, a common habit for me. When my doctor instructed me to wear the gown but keep on my bra and underwear, I realized my mistake and facepalmed.
3. Doctors Disagree Over a Limb Length
u/epona92: I have a slight leg length discrepancy (about 1.5 cm) alongside scoliosis. As a child, I saw a specialist, which led to conflicting opinions between doctors about how significant the difference was.
