>Last week while masterbating I felt a small tearing sensation in the left side of my penis where the base meets the body. My penis immediatley went numb and my erection went away quickly. My penis was also hanging noticably lower from the body. For four days I was unable to get any kind of an erection and felt a dull pain up the left side of my shaft. Finally about a week later I was able to get a semi-hard erection, but the erection seemed to not stand up at the base. Kind of like a sock filled with sand and hung down to the ground. Some of the sensation has returned, nut i would say only about 50 percent. I told my urologist about what had happened and he told me it was impossible to damage the penis while masterbating normally and had never heard of such a thing. What can be done to help heal this? What tests can be done to find out exactly what went wrong? Thanks for the advice, I'm freaking out quite a bit.
I would find another Dr it sounds like you may have a fracture as mentioned but a good Dr should know this anyway.Try not to freak out as these things do happen and normaly heal but an understanding Dr should be sort
Good luck
