I had a nasty infection on my foot when I was younger, like full on pus-volcano type thing, it looked and smelled terrible. The city I lived in back then was one of the biggest teaching hospitals in the country, when they asked if students could come watch I said sure, of course! Next thing I know there was like a dozen of them in my room, taking turn prodding the pus-volcano with a stick, cleaning it out (extreme pain), and just overall commenting on it and leaning over it super close. I'm glad I helped their education but damn was it awkward especially since I was about the same age as them at the time if not a bit younger if I recall.

And that's okay! Someday you may be asked again and be more comfortable with it in that situation.

Sounds like a shitty situation
