Please help me in parsing / solving this cryptic clue -
"Take stuffing box in shock (6)"
I thought synonym of box to go in synonym of either take or shock and meaning the other. Unable to get a satisfactory word with neat parsing.

Take is the single letter (from Latin) that doctors use. Inside a five letter word for box (as in the sport).

Thnaks Jono for the brilliant parsing. I did n't think of take in box and even if I had thought of it, I would not have got the word. Could get the word after your seeing neat parsing.

Hi Bharat, glad I could help. Always worth remembering that usage of ‘take’.

Thanks Jono - learning every day!
I did Latin at school - it was the only 'O' level I failed!

Thanks mattrom for making the difficult one easy for me with your clever parsing. I was chasing the wrong definition. Could get the word now
