As if you needed any more reasons
… why not to get an enema in Russia (you know, to be added to the long list you already have):
Unhealthy enemas put tourists in hospital

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russians visiting a health resort received a rude shock when a nurse used hydrogen peroxide instead of water to give them enemas.
Itar-Tass news agency reported Thursday that 17 tourists in the Caucasus spa town of Yessentuki had to be treated in hospital after the mix-up.
Sources at the sanatorium said the mistake was explained by water and hydrogen peroxide looking the same.
Oh, that silly mistake. And liquid opium looks exactly like Coca-Cola, but sadly, I’ve never been given an opiate on the rocks.
I suppose I would feel really bad for these folks if they weren’t people who, you know, paid to go to a spa and get an enema.
“Boris, please grab this rubber hose & shove it up my a**.”
