    I wonder how this is handled in emergency situations. Im in EMS and we practice under implied consent if the patient is unresponsive. Can’t say I’ve ever been on a call where I’ve needed to inspect someone’s genitals outside of a quick look for priapism/injury but it might be a thing in the ER

      Probably different if there’s a justified direct connection between the procedure and necessary care to preserve life.
