Medical fetishism is a paraphilia where the activities and paraphernalia of medicine are eroticised. Many observers believe that medical fetishism is the result of behavioral imprinting from childhood.
Typical medical fetishism scenarios include intimate examinations (rectal examination, gynecological examination), rectal temperature taking, catheterization, enemas, the insertion of suppositories and prostatic massage.
An additional twist on medical fetishism is surgical fetishism, which eroticises the idea of either performing surgery or having surgery performed on one's self. Even more specific is anesthesia fetishism which involves the procedures and devices used to perform general anesthesia, especially the mask used to administer gaseous anesthesia to a patient.
It should be noted that attempting to carry out medical procedures without medical training and hygiene is potentially highly dangerous.
