What does the term hard flaccid refer to exactly?

Sorry for all the threads lately. Trying to sort things.

What does "hard flaccid" refer to? Because if I am right, it seems I have it.

rubbery flaccid. typically due to tension in the pelvis muscles. but i think it could also simply be that there's diffuse fibrosis that makes the penis feel rubbery.

It refers to a hard flaccid, just as it sounds. So actually "non-elastic."

A healthy flaccid penis actually is rubbery, and not hard and inflamed or fibrotic. I guess it depends on how you look at it, but generally harder is worse for a lot of reasons, such as poor blood viscosity (thick blood), hematoma, poor collagen to healthy cell ratio (intra cellular calcium), and more inflammatory biomarkers, etc.

Could it also be caused by stress and anxiety?

I told my Uro I need to relax first before you touch, else it will feel hard. Uro said there are no muscles that can cause that. I thought it was very strange because I def experience this, and read same thing here about others experiencing this.

No. This is due to some sort of damage. Sometimes your penis will turtle without any damage like when it's cold. But hard flaccid is something that happens when you hurt your penis. It's like it retracts because it is inflamed. So don't force erections. I get it if I masturbate too long or after (I have delayed ejaculation), happened after my injury, sucks ass.

I disagree. A healthy flaccid is soft, not rubbery. Rubbery is harder than soft.
