I had an appointment with the doctor yesterday for follow-up after knee surgery.
I had to get xrays first. The tech asked me to change into a gown, actually two. One on frontways and another on the back. She said I could keep underwear on... Once I was on the xray table, it became apparent to her that I had no underwear on. No big deal, she did what needed to be done, and once or twice tugged the gown down to protect my modesty.
After the nurse put me in the exam room, a medical student came in first. He asked all the routine questions. Eventually he asked to examine the scar. I dropped my pants to my ankles. Without missing a beat, he looked at the scar asked a couple more questions and told me I could pull my pants back up. No big deal at all.
Medical folks see this all the time. I'm sure it's really nothing they haven't seen a million times before.
