 Subject: Breasts on male?
 
 
 This new doctor has a review of systems normal.  It includes a 'Breasts' normal.  Do I keep that if it is a man?  I'm confused because I've heard men can get breast cancer.  should I leave it/delete it?

 Male sounds are shaped differently than female sounds. Obviously, male sounds being longer. They are used to dilate the urethra in order to facilitate the passage of stones or perhaps JJ stents etc. They come in different diameters ie..18FR, 20FR etc. Hope this helps.

 In the male GU physical exam, the doctor says:  "Penis normal.  Testes normal.  _____ normal."  I can't understand the first part of what he says, but the rest of it sounds like it ends in "ricks" or "ryx."  What could it be?  I could leave a blank, but I'm kinda curious....  
 Any help would be appreciated.  (And you don't even have to tell me how you know !) hmm. . . not sure.  She has said this same thing for 4 pts. in a row, some male and some female. nm
