medical fetishism

Medical fetishism is a type of paraphilia in which an individual experiences intense sexual arousal or gratification through the use of objects and situations associated with medicine or medical procedures. This can involve a fixation on medical instruments, clothing, equipment, or settings such as hospitals or doctor's offices. The specific object or situation that elicits the fetishistic response may vary among individuals, but it typically triggers strong sexual desire or arousal. Medical fetishism is distinct from sadomasochistic practices that might incorporate medical themes, as these are primarily focused on power dynamics rather than a specific fetishistic obsession with medical objects or scenarios.
