In Agony

He could have been having testicular torsion.An acute urological emergency.I wish i had insisted the ER surgical resident on seeing him instead of letting the patient be discharged as the resident advised me.Night duties are tough on everyone.But residents have a resposibility and they can't go up to their room and manage patients via the phone through their interns!!!It is unacceptable.Why did the resident let him go....why didnt i ask the internal medicine resident to see the patient eventhough they wont see a surgical case!!??*weeps !!
