A bit more:
Unless they have changed how they treat from they way they did 20 years ago, they often advise the patient to just leave it alone unless it begins to show infection.
I have a piece in the palm of my hand, as well as a piece in my hip from a pencil fight at school with another kid from almost 45 years ago. Neither of them have ever caused me any problems of any kind.
When my daughter was around ten years old (well over 20 years ago) she got a piece of pencil lead stuck in her arm. I took her to the doctor, who said to just keep it clean with soap and water, and keep an eye on it to make sure it didn't begin to show signs of infection, such as redness, swelling, pain, fever.
But it would probably be a good idea to have a doctor or a nurse practitioner examine it, just to be safe.

Should another person be present for male exam by female doctor?
I'm a male who had a very thorough physical by my (new to me) female doctor. Pretty much everything that could be examined, inside and out, was. After meeting my doctor and talking with her about my medical history and current concerns, I felt comfortable enough that I decided to not ask for a chaperone for the exam. And that's the thing here; there is no hard-fast rule as it has to do more with your or your physician's comfort level. If my doctor felt uncomfortable, she would have likely asked if I minded a nurse in the exam room (would have been okay with me, too). So, there "should" only be another person present if you are uncomfortable being examined alone by your female doc. Don't forget that any doctor sees many patients a day and at the point in their career where they're part of a practice, a body is a body, male or female, and there are certain procedures for examining that body which the doctor goes through. As an aside, my doctor had a great bedside manner, sense of humor, and very good hands. Also, I have to say that she listened much better and took more time during the interview and exam than I had experienced with male doctors. Not sure if this is anyone else's experience but it is what will cause me to keep her as my PCP. Hope this helps a bit...

What interests are needed to become a medical doctor?
First, there is no such thing as a degree in pre-med. It is a curriculum layout or sometimes referred to as a tract, which prepares students who intend to seek admission to medical schools. It includes activities such as prerequisite coursework, clinical experience, volunteer activities, and research.
While many individuals who pursue a career as a physician major in biology at the undergraduate level, many others come from a variety of other educational backgrounds. You should meet with a career counselor at the college or university you attend for what options exist for you. The important issue is acquiring the appropriate prerequisites required for medical school. The student should have a strong background in the following areas.
- Biology (cell biology, biology of the organism)
- Chemistry (inorganic, organic)
- Physics
- Communication (written and oral)
- Higher level math's
- Computer literacy
- Development of good critical thinking skills.

Why do some doctors look at your private areas?
Doctors do that so they know you're healthy. I just had mine and she had me take of my clothes(including my bra),but usually she lets you keep your undies or panties on. She waited for me to change and she gave me something to cover my vagina(and I didn't want her looking at my vagina or my boobs). Then before she looked she asked me about my periods and how many pads I used in a day. Then she put her hand under the blanket and was listening to my heart( she had her hands on my boobs and it felt uncomfortable) but she wasnt looking at them,but then she pulled the blanket up so you could see all of my boobs and she just felt them to feel for lumps. I was very nervous,but I also know that she is a professional and she isn't trying to offend you in any way. She might peek down your panties too.
