Many men suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED) and the causes are many. Sometimes, as a man ages circulation weakens and this can have a major impact on the inability to sustain an erection. Then, there are those that cannot maintain an erection because they suffer from stress and anxiety. Thankfully, the development of erectile dysfunction prescriptions such as Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis can deliver the much needed results that can reverse the problems associated with ED.
However, if the erectile dysfunction is the result of an injury then a prescription may not be able to reverse the problem. In fact, a serious injury might require penile surgery in order to correct the problem. Probably the most common injury that a person may face is that of a penile fracture. Again, this is a very serious injury and it would need to be properly treated by a physician’s care.
So, how can you determine whether or not you have suffered an injury? Honestly, you cannot determine whether or not you have suffered an injury. Only an examination by an urologist can determine if a serious problem has occurred. But, there are certain obvious warning signs that an injury has taken place.
The most obvious sign of an injury would be swelling and lumps on the penis. This swelling would be similar to the type of hematoma that would be common with any one of a number of injuries. However, when you see such an injury on the penis you positively must see a doctor because it is very easy to completely damage the urinary tract when the penis is injured.
Discoloration is another significant sign of injury. Black and blue marks can represent something that is either serious or something that is not as dangerous. In order to ascertain whether it is serious or not you will need to be examined by a professional. When it comes to penile injuries, you must positively have the extent of the injury determined. To do otherwise could lead to serious complications.
