Mine is ‘pearly penile papules’ as it sounds like a fancy magic spell.
Toxic megacolon. Sounds like a metal band.
Oooh, good call! It totally does. I bet a Toxic Megacolon show would have a wild and kickass mosh pit.
Sphygmomanometer
I recently figured out you can arrange the letters of this word to make a Letter Boxed puzzle:
P G A S H O E T N Y M R
Synesthesia. That or prosopagnosia.
Ah, I’ve never encountered anyone else using the latter.
Did you know that Brad Pitt claims it?
edit: So do I, in case anyone thinks I’m being disparaging.
My words are taken so imma do a phrase
“FECAL VOMITING”
Like many others, could be a band name. Grindcore, probably. I imagine one of the worst experiences to go though. Vomiting is already terrible… butt now there’s shit.
Worm rot 😍
“Endocannabinoid system”. It makes us sound like we just evolved a system specifically for processing THC.
Hypopotomonstrososqepideliophobia. The phobia of long words
Yikes
Infarction
Priapism. Gotta check for it in trauma patients.
Also a phenomenal instrumental progressive/fusion metal band

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis - a rare disease that a friend has.
Any of the big compound medical words are fun to say and construct IMO. Adrenocorticotropic, deoxyribonucleic, those kinda words. They seem big and scary but they’re quite descriptive and once you know the “formula” behind them it’s not too bad. Maybe not the most fun words but I feel good every time I can use one and deploy it like it’s no big deal (ie my mouth doesn’t fuck it up). It’s like executing a big combo with your mouth.
Pericardium.
Idk if it’s medical or more psychological but the term for when your hear a word so many times it loses meaning is one of my favorite phrases in the English language.
Semantic satiation
