(I once even had one guy come into the ER with a 'penile fracture' caused by attempting to 'breed' with a knothole in a fence board!)

Just reading the words "penile fracture" causes me to wince.

So...got any interesting "lodged object" stories?

Most memorable was a broken pencil stuck in a pencil.

Thanks to the splintered end, it couldn’t be backed out; the only option was ‘gently’ moving it into the bladder, then removing it.

Then there was the nursing supervisor who got her way when she demanded the deputy uncuff his prisoner....

Or the former head nurse of the burn unit, who set herself on fire three times...the final (fatal) time after escaping a locked psych unit.
