Doctors in India recently carried out an unusual surgery to remove a 40cm bottle gourd from a farmer’s rectum.

According to India TV, the patient arrived at Chhatarpur District Hospital in Madhya Pradesh from Khajuraho on Saturday (20 July).

The 60-year-old was in critical condition, suffering from intense stomach pain.

An X-ray revealed the entire bottle gourd lodged inside the farmer’s rectum, causing significant internal damage

...

One of the surgeons involved in the operation revealed that the patient declined to disclose how the gourd came to be lodged in his rectum.

Doctors suspect that a mental health issue might be behind this bizarre incident, though they haven’t ruled out the possibility of an accident.

Might be safer than admitting you're a man who likes stuff up their butt depending on where you live

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

So where was the squash exactly?

India … butt?

"So I was farming in the nude and slipped in the gourd field and..."

One in a million shot, doc

I'm not a doctor, but this sounds like something a doctor might consider sus.

do not kink shame. everyone can have its own fetish

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 months ago

I don't think he's shaming, but rather pointing out that the story in their case would seem fishy

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's worked every time for a friend of mine. He is banned from the allotment but still likes to hoover nude.

[–] dogsnest@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Cool.
Well, if you and I ever become friends, will you promise to give me a head's up before introducing us?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago

Will do, it's better done before you shake hands.

According to India TV, the patient arrived at Chhatarpur District Hospital in Madhya Pradesh from Khajuraho on Saturday (20 July).

it should be noted that khajuraho is famous for temples enshrouded in thousands of carvings of people in various erotic poses. these were contemporary to the famed kama sutra.

No flared base, not approved.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 15 points 3 months ago

The only thing worse than going to hospital with something stuck up your butt is having it become planetary news.

[–] grandma@sh.itjust.works 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Why did they pose with it mid-surgery 🤣🤣

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's the dirty secret of medicine - they dick about when no-one is looking.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I think somebody sucked by dick when I went in for surgery. I woke up with a spot on my dock and it looks like a little burst blood vessel, the kind that would happen with suction.

The surgery was not on or around my dick.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well that is quite something.

[–] intensely_human@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago

It’s fucking horrifying

It really is amazing how much better an actual sex toy is than an improvised one. Blew my mind when I got my first one

I just slipped and fell onto it. It was an accident, I swear!

[–] DarkThoughts@fedia.io 5 points 3 months ago

It's a big fat phallus shaped object. Unfortunately it does not have a flared base that would prevent it slipping away.

[–] pixeltree@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago

Hahaha good pun

A select few would pay astronomical prices for that specific gourd.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] magnetosphere@fedia.io 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I understand your doubts. I meant that a select few would be both willing and able to pay astronomical amounts of money for a “famous” gourd that had been stuck in someone’s ass.

Many would want a similar gourd, fewer would want a used one, fewer still could pay “auction” price for this particular gourd.

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 3 months ago

Sounds like a press release from Big Gourd.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He misheard bottle gourd as butthole gourd, duh. Common mistake, he'll be okay.

😂🤣

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like the voice of experience there.

[–] rikudou@lemmings.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I mean, it happens to all of us once or twice.

They who is without a distorted sphincter may throw the first stone.
