          I take that back, it's not weird as such... just takes a while to load and definitely not work safe...
          Sorry about that ZG. The original picture was quite tasty, but I guess the site didn't like direct linking to its pics. Anyway, I have replaced it with something more tasteful.......

                Scrotum Self-Repair


                The following is the _Unusual Case_ column from the July 1991 issue of
                the trade magazine "Medical Aspects of Human Sexuality,"

                by William A. Morton, Jr.

                Scrotum Self-Repair

                One morning I was called to the emergency room by the head ER nurse. She
                directed me to a patient who had refused to describe his problem other
                than to say that he "needed a doctor who took care of men's troubles."
                The patient, about 40, was pale, febrile, and obviously uncomfortable,
                and had little to say as he gingerly opened his trousers to expose a bit
                of angry red and black-and-blue scrotal skin.

                After I asked the nurse to leave us, the patient permitted me to remove
                his trousers, shorts, and two or three yards of foul-smelling stained
                gauze wrapped about his scrotum, which was swollen to twice the size of
                a grapefruit and extremely tender. A jagged zig-zag laceration, oozing
                pus and blood, extended down the left scrotum.

                Amid the matted hair, edematous skin, and various exudates, I saw some
                half-buried dark linear objects and asked the patient what they were.
                Several days earlier, he replied, he had injured himself in the machine
                shop where he worked, and had closed the laceration himself with a
                heavy-duty stapling gun. The dark objects were one-inch staples of the
                type used in putting up wallboard.

                We x-rayed the patient's scrotum to locate the staples; admitted him to
                the hospital; and gave him tetanus antitoxin, broad-spectrum
                antibacterial therapy, and hexachlorophene sitz baths prior to surgery
                the next morning. The procedure consisted of exploration and debridement
                of the left side of the scrotal pouch. Eight rusty staples were
                retrieved, and the skin edges were trimmed and freshened. The left
                testis had been avulsed and was missing. The stump of the spermatic cord
                was recovered at the inguinal canal, debrided, and the vessels ligated
                properly, though not much of a hematoma was present.
                Through-and-through Penrose drains were sutured loosely in site, and the
                skin was loosely closed.

                Convalescence was uneventful, and before his release from the hospital
                less than a week later, the patient confided the rest of his story to
                me. An unmarried loner, he usually didn't leave the machine shop at
                lunchtime with his coworkers. Finding himself alone, he had begun the
                regular practice of masturbating by holding his penis against the canvas
                drive-belt of a large floor-based piece of machinery. One day, as he
                approached orgasm, he lost his concentration and leaned too close to the
                belt. When his scrotum became caught between the pulley-wheel and the
                drive-belt, he was thrown into the air and landed a few feet away.
                Unaware that he had lost his left testis, and perhaps too stunned to
                feel much pain, he stapled the wound closed and resumed work. I can only
                assume he abandoned this method of self-gratification.

                  Some nice pics recently, but I have to say I still miss some of the 'oldies'...



                  Anyone found a way to include streamed video?...
