Men’s health: it is imperative to teach scrotal and rectal examination
Monday, 31 October, 2011
Men’s health has been a neglected area. Both their general health and their sexual health impact on morbidity and mortality. To improve this situation we need to educate men to attend their doctor and discuss their concerns. But, we also need medical professionals who are both competent and confident in initiating discussions and dealing with men’s concerns. Editor in Chief Steve Trumble, discusses this training need with the author Christine Fairbank, about her paper in the June 2011 issue of The Clinical Teacher: Men’s health: it is imperative to teach scrotal and rectal examination.
