A surgeon was performing a hernia operation on a patient.
During the procedure, he removed the patient's testicles and placed them on a nearby table.
Upon completing the operation, he intended to return them to the scrotal pouch. However, after searching the operating theater, he could not locate the patient's testicles.
As a last resort, he instructed a nurse to fetch two small onions from his lunchbox, as he could not leave the scrotal pouch empty.
Some time later, the doctor encountered the same patient during a morning walk in a garden.
Being conscientious, the doctor asked how the patient was feeling.
The patient replied, "Doctor, everything is fine. Life is good, except for one thing: whenever I scratch my testicles, my eyes start to water."
