Nothing to a basic prostate check. Now when a surgeon or uroligist does it it tends to be a little more invasive in my opinion. The higher the count the more invasive as well.
The average doctor feels for superficial irregularities while the surgeon or uroligist wants to feel for more impacted tumour material in my opinion. Also if your prostate count is low chemically the test tends to be just more of a formality.
A friend of mine complained bitterly once. He said he experienced major discomfort. I noticed a real shift in his facial expression when I asked him if he watched and was he sure the surgeon was not gay.
The rectal and lower bowel check is a case of them working where the sun does not shine. Someone has to do it I suppose.
Tom, without pictures it is just not the same.
