Doctor came up to me and pressed and moved scalp suddenly.. exam sensitivity
Hi everyone
I had two things freak me out today
I had been looking behind a dresser and started to move back and my jaw area bumped against a bottle of soap
And then I had an awkward and sudden flinch while looking up in parking lot and being startled by a rabbit
I went to the ER and the first doctor there said everything looked ok on her basic exam but then this other doctor came in and he suddenly came up to me and pushed and pressed his hand on my head without explaining
I was really confused because I didn't bump that part of me but I told the other doctor and she said he was just checking for any signs of trauma or bumps
I think he was confused about the story but I'm really unsettled by him suddenly walking up and rubbing and pushing forward on my scalp
Has anyone had similar anxious experiences with doctors touching your scalp and does anyone have any advice on how to relax after this
The other doctor there said he was probably just examining but it felt really sudden and not as gentle as others
She said it wouldn't have caused me any harm and to just take some medicine
