Invariably the duty medical officer of a military hospital gets pain abdomen cases after 10pm specially on the eve of unit's exercise .My method of management was unconventional.
Having examined them if I found the patient a malingerer I used to treat like this. Along with the medical assistant I used to take the patient to examination room and ask the medical assistant to prepare the patient for soap enema and I come out of the examination room. After a couple of minutes I used see the patient going out of the room....
And he never returns.
What happens in between??
The patient asks the medical assistant about the soap water enema and the medical assistant shows him the enema stand, the enema cane and the flatus/enema tube with cannula....and explained him the image how it will be introduced and the effects…
Then the patient asks the medical assistant to allow him to go out and come after a couple of minutes......
And vanishes.....!!
What a fantastic method of treatment...
Doctor's order number 9 was a laxative tablet used during WW1
Slang of the First World War was the “No.9” pill.The army doctors were prescribing it excessively which led the soldiers to mock it as the panacea for
many ailments of the soldier .Actually it was a universal laxative pill given when no other alternative was found suitable . It gave rise to the bingo call ‘Doctor’s orders – number nine.’ ” (Pegler, Soldier’s Songs and Slang of the Great War, p.
35). The following advertisement speaks volumes of “No.9”pill.
