A number two is code for bowel movement. For health care professionals, it is not uncommon to be so busy that you're either paged while doing a number two or you have to delegate task to someone else entirely, usually an intern or medical student.

"I've been busy all day and I haven't had a chance to go to the toilet. Could you go for me? A number two. I've done a number one."
