Medical play

Medical play (also known as medical role-play) is a form of BDSM in which medical procedures, instruments, or rituals are reenacted or experienced as part of erotic, psychological, or power-oriented play. The experience varies from role-playing between “doctor” and “patient” to realistic procedures such as injections, catheterization, sounding, or examination play.
