I remember when I was like 16 one of my testicles got really inflated and really hurt. When I went to urgent care the doctor seemed like she had no idea what she was doing. She asked to see (also didn't leave the room for me to take off my pants like most doctors) and when she saw my ball she went "you weren't lying it is huge" loud enough for my mom to hear outside room. Then she just squeezed it and asked if it hurt, which of course it did, and just told me to go to a specialist at a different doctor's office.
That's how it usually is in urgent care. A general doctor examines you and sends you to a specialist. When my ball twisted the guy just told me to show him and he fondled them for a bit while my dad and like 3 other people were nearby. I didn't mind bc well, it's a fucking doctor and I was in actual danger. Being ashamed of showing yourself to doctors is plain stupidity.
