Doctors who work in the emergency services have to be strong, because they will see the strangest cases during their shifts. At any given moment, a new patient, presenting a completely new case, can present a real challenge to the medical team.

As a urologist, Instagram sensation Dr Joshua Gonzalez has had to deal with every possible type of emergency. On his Instagram account, his now viral post lists the most original cases he has encountered in the past year. You won't look at other people the same way after finding out what some of them insert into their rectums for fun.
One of his patients put billiard balls in his rectum
This doctor's video is simple but effective. While a song from Beyoncé plays in the background, the doctor improvises a dance and lists the strangest objects he has had to remove from the rectums of his Californian patients in the span of 12 months.
The list of things that have certainly 'accidentally' found their way into these patients' butts include the most random objects you can find around the house. For example, Dr Joshua Gonzalez claims he once found billiard balls inside a patient's anus. Balls plural, in case you were wondering. He has also found toothbrushes, glue sticks, markers, bottle caps, and perhaps the most surprising one so far, a plastic rocket!

Subscribers obviously found this list hilarious
As expected, anything to do with people's rectums generally makes people laugh uncontrollably. In the comments section, two teams are arguing. The first type of people wonders whether the urologist could be breaching his doctor-patient confidence by revealing intimate details about his patients. Others are just having the laugh of their life, or even sharing their own unfortunate trip to the ER because of a foreign object that mysteriously found its way into their bodies.
