Doctor, Embarrassing, Emergency and Health: So, here's the thing…

So, here's the thing…

By HairyBoobs - 05/11/2009 14:22 - United States

Today, I nearly sliced my nipple off while shaving my chest and had to go to the ER. Turns out it was a teaching hospital so I got to explain in front of two doctors and eight med students how, even though I'm a woman, my nipples are so hairy I have to shave them. FML

Today, while shaving in the shower, my mother banged on the bathroom door to tell me something, right as I went to shave under my left armpit, causing me to jump and cut open my nipple. FML

Today, while shaving I accidentally shaved of half of my left nipple. Worst of all? I didn't notice it until I looked down and saw blood everywhere. That's when the pain hit. FML

Today, I found out I had three strands of pubic hair beside my nipple, so I decided to cut it off with a scissor since I'm going swimming tomorrow. In an attempt to cut off my third strand, I instead excised the cap of my left nipple. FML

Today, while shaving my nether regions, I slipped and sliced myself in three separate places. They won't completely stop bleeding. I'm virtually having a second period, and it hurts to close my legs. FML

So painful

By Anonymous - 30/01/2020 03:00

Today, my sister caught me bent over trying to trim my pubic hairs. She took a photo of my spread ass as a joke and scared me so bad, I cut my clitoris. Currently in hospital hopped up on the really good morphine for the excruciating pain. Oh, and the stitches, God, I can't forget the stitches. FML

Bailed out

By Why's it so cold in here? - 01/02/2015 18:13 - United States

Today, after getting home from being in the field for a week, my wife who's a nurse, convinced me I had a spider bite on my penis. After rushing to the ER and standing nude in a cold exam room while the ER staff checked me out, I learned it's just an ingrown hair. FML

Body modification

Today, I got a nipple piercing. My girlfriend thought I was pranking her with a fake piercing, because I wouldn’t be "daft enough" to get a real one, and she yanked it off, or rather through, my nipple. Yes, it cut my poor nip in half, and I now have two nipples where once I had only one. FML

Slice of life

By Eleanor - 19/02/2017 23:00 - United Kingdom - Leeds

Today, I tripped and fell on my open dishwasher, right onto a carving knife. I'm mostly ok, except that my nipple has been sliced neatly in half. Seriously, the two halves keep flapping open like a little mouth. It would be funnier if it wasn't so painful. FML

Sliced

By Anonymous - 18/04/2023 18:00

Today, I was in a rush to get ready for work so I quickly shaved my legs. In my haste, I accidentally nicked myself in a very sensitive area and had to spend the day simmering in discomfort and checking my crotch every so often to make I wasn't bleeding through my pants. FML

Today, while observing a surgery, I was asked to open a glass ampule of adrenaline. Not only did I break it and get it everywhere, I sliced open my thumb bad enough to need stitches. FML

Ah, that sucks there were all those med students there. Then again, watching doctors in the field is the breast way to learn.

yeah see, plucking works better for that. Hurts a bit, but its less dangerous than shaving and theres no chance of like, razor burn or anything

Don't you have to give them permission to bring in a med student? That's how it's always worked for me, but I've never been to a teaching hospital so I guess you consent to it by going there? I don't know, it seems odd.

I had emergency surgery at a teaching hospital and I only saw two med students the entire time, but they didn't ever ask me if it was okay (It was, of course. One of the best hospitals in the country so a couple of med students here or there= no skin off of my back.)

I had to get a cut in my face glued shut. It was done my a med student. I was not given the option to ask for a real doctor. The med student did a good job though. She was able to use the glue and all I have is a small scar on my chin. I won't let someone who is 'in training' take a blood sample though. I don't need a person digging around in my arm with a needle trying to find a vein.

Why a razor?! That's only going to make things worse. Creams, wax, etc...much better way to go for any *sensitive* area!

You'd be surprised how many women share this condition. It's really a lot more common than you would think. And I've even known guys that were *very* turned on by women with hairy chests. You really had nothing to be embarrassed about.

That sucks, but med students are aspiring to be doctors. Most have to learn to become extremely open minded, and nonjudgemental. (Not all practicing doctors are like this though :/)

Yikes, that sucks. Wish I could recommend Nair for my third post in a row, but it says not to put it on your nipples, or any other sensitive bits. Trust the bottle. Don't do it. Perhaps try using an electric next time? I wouldn't want to wax there either.

Wax? And what could u say to the doctors and students: I'm from texas bitches! We have all the ****** fmls because we're rednecks. And my nipple stopped it's evolution at cave woman!
