Genital / Pelvic Examination:

" I also need to examine your front passage(Vaginal Exam) or Backpassage (P/R)" Atleast this works in UK

Angiogram: Pictures of the heart vessels after injecting some dye through your groin.

2. You can ask the patient to encourage his son to see you or another doc, and maybe after talking to his son if you feel like that there is a need for HIV testing, you would advice the son to undergo the testing. Also counselling that being gay doesnot mean he has HIV (what if he has one partner and uses condoms everytime??)
