The physician changes gloves after a bimanual exam to maintain a sterile environment and prevent cross-contamination. This practice helps reduce the risk of transferring bacteria or other pathogens from one area of the body to another or to other patients. Additionally, changing gloves ensures patient safety and upholds hygiene standards in medical practice.

No. That is not necessary. However, dental hygienists wear exam gloves due to the fact that some of their patients have abscesses in their mouths which, from time to time, exude pus (and could be carried by the hygienist from one patient to another, unless gloves were changed for each oral exam).
