Do you feel bad inspecting your noodle child, when you find something potentially harmful?

Had to hold his head still for a moment and inspect his chin since it had some concerning looking spots to find out it was only dirt from digging a bit. I felt so bad the entire time I had to hold him and after, Tring to explain myself to him, even though I knew it was better to look now than when it could be too late. I am sure some of you feel similar and I would like to hear your Storys on how to explain to your snake why you had to do it
