A well developed adolescent female was being examined by the paramedic for cold symptoms. The paramedic who was standing behind the patient, leaned over her shoulder with a stethoscope to his ears and said, "big breaths".
The young girl, hesitated for a second, then replied, "I know, and I'm only 12 !
Paramedic: "It's no good. I can't find anything wrong with you. It must just be the effects of drinking."
Patient: "Come back when you're sober then!"
Patient to the Paramedic:
"It hurts when I press here" (pressing his side)
"And when I press here" (pressing the other side)
"And here" (his leg)
"And here, here and here" (his other leg, and both arms)
The Paramedic examined him all over and finally discovered what was wrong... "You've got a broken finger!"
