Hey everyone,
I just finished my last battery of tests for the year, so now I have time to take some moments to myself. We recently had an patient exam in which we perform part of a physical exam on willing subjects. The Babinsky test was covered, which is a very common test. So I practiced scratching soles many times in preparation. I can tell you about these study sessions if you're interested - but let me tell you about the exam itself.
I walk into the room, and my patient was a cutie. I don't think she had a clue what I was to do, that she just had to be willing and act as a patient. I went through the test fine, but when I grabbed her foot to do the Babinsky - I could tell she was really ticklish. NO, I did not tickle her - intentionally that is, but I did what I had to do, and that was it. I thought I'd share.
