A member asked:
Is it improper for a proctologist to have hands on my shoulders during examination?

You're being silly!: And that's an old joke... A proctologist is a rectal specialist. Digital inspection of the rectum necessitates his gloved hand is engaged in palpating rectal and anal structures. Beside, there is an orthopedic specialist who specializes in shoulders!
