While I was working in a clinic recently, I saw an elderly man who came in for a "skin infection." When I walked in to examine him, I noticed that the man's hands were covered in a thick fungal infection. I talked with him for a few minutes and wrote him a prescription. On his way out of the room I overheard him say to his wife, "That doctor was very rude. He didn't even try to shake my hand."

One of the old geezer dermatologists where I did my residency always said "If you know what it is, you don't need to touch it. If you don't know what it is, you shouldn't be touching it!"
