We've all been to a hospital at least a couple of times in our lives, and those visits are never, never pleasant. Not only you have to answer a bunch of very personal questions, get poked and prodded but also often endure a great deal of pain, which probably have brought you there in the first place. Nurses and doctors, knowing all this either try to ignore your whining entirely and just do their job, while others try to add some optimism to the situation by making you laugh with hospital puns, funny stories and various sorts of jokes. This list that you'll find below are real stories about the second category of hospital staff and their ingenious ways of keeping patients' spirit up.
From doctors who probably have a Ph.D. in trolling to patients who are taking it rather well and nurses spending their graveyard shifts in very nonconformist ways, the hospital turns out to be an excellent source for funny jokes. So, scroll down, say 'ahhhh' and breathe deep, because you're going to need all the oxygen that you can get for laughing at these funny things found in hospitals!

Leech Jailbreak
Well, they're gonna have to sterilize the leech before using it again.

The maggot treatment is true - but not for the squeamish. They bandage them into an gangrenous wound and they eat all the rotten flesh away

Load More Replies...leeches are great for a lot of conditions and have little to no side effects compared to drugs
Load More Replies...Might just have noticed it. And leeches can also move surprisingly quick.

If he makes it past the door, he is free to go. That ís hella lot of blood tho...
So did she just allow this to take place to get her selfie moment. Knowing some poor orderly is going to have to clean that biohazard skid-mark. But knowing it wasn't going to be her cleaning up zero f&@k$ given.
I think that's hilarious. Though I'd be mighty surprised to see it haha. I have seen the maggot treatment though. My mother passed out in the sun for days which resulted in 3rd degree burns to her leg. They used maggots to remove necrosis.
Sorry there are so many...but they are so funny, esp. for those of us we're/are in the medical field!
So.... you'd rather risk losing the limb than leeches?

This Pain Scale Found In My Doctor's Office
Better than the 1-10 scale where you only base it on the worst pain you've experienced. What if you haven't had much before or are worn down by having serious pain a lot? I've always found this really difficult as pain from a broken bone is a different type of pain to, say, nerve pain.
