A man was experiencing a great deal of pain from a bad case of hemorrhoids, so he went to see his doctor. The doctor told him that the pain could be relieved by suppositories and asked if he would like him to insert the first one. Slightly embarrassed, the man agreed. He bent over, held his breathe and felt a sharp pain as the doctor inserted it.
“Now, the next one should be inserted in about six hours,” the doctor said. “If you have a problem doing it yourself, ask your wife to help you.”
The man went home and laid down for a couple of hours. Later that evening, he attempted to insert the second suppository but found he couldn’t do it himself, so he asked his wife for help. She told him to bend over and put one hand on his shoulder to help steady him. As soon as she stuck the suppository in, he let out a scream.
“I’m sorry, dear. Did I hurt you?” she asked.
“No, it’s not that,” he said, his face ashen in color. “I just realized when the doctor did it for me, he had both his hands on my shoulders!”
