Hello all, wondering where I should post this to see if others have had similar experience, or if I could be linked to threads that are similar. Already tried searching. Here's my story:

Had a injurywhile having sex with her on top around July 25, came out and penis essentially bent on her pelvis with her weight coming down. Symptoms coincide with a lateral tear of the suspensory/fundiform ligament. Pain at/near base of penis and in groin/scrotum on right side, to the point it is even painful to walk at times (feels like a pulling/strain). Now penis is angled, rotates and curves to the left  while flaccid and erect, whereas before it was straight. As well as feeling looser/unstable, especially when pulled to the left. The penis also hangs lower/longer while flaccid and has an almost rubbery feel to it now. Erections generally cause pain especially if prolonged, and REM cycle erections often cause periods of waking up with pain/soreness (especially at right side base and right groin/scrotum area) sleep is thus heavily impacted as well. (Not certain how pertinent it is to all this but I do have hEDS)

I've been to around 8 urologists, none of them have ever seen suspensory/fundiform ligament tears before and have been absolutely no help whatsoever. Had an MRI, which shoes partial tearing on the right side of ligaments. Had to have a friend that is a neurosurgeon read it though and confirm as the radiologists nor uros here didn't even pick up on it.

There's very little literature on such injuries, so I am wondering if others have experience with this, or could point me in the right direction.

Welcome to the forum Epictetus008 and this is the correct place to begin your first posting. Please take the time and fill out your signature line ==>Signature Line. This will give you a better member response. Then please download and study our survival guide -->Survival Guide . This gives you a comprehensive overview of peyronies and it's treatments.

Sorry to hear about your injury. Penile fractures from women on top are common but your situation regarding your ligament being torn is another thing. Hopefully there are other members who have experienced this. Whether this will turn into peyronies or not is something you will have to wait and see.

It is a good thing that you have the smarts to go to other Dr's to see if they could help you. Are you close to Chicago or Utah? I say that because Dr Levine is based in Chicago and is in my opinion one of the peyronies specialist and also my Dr. You could also see Dr Trost in Utah who is also a peyronies specialist. He is also one of the Dr's here on our forum who answers questions from members. You might try to ask him a question regarding your case.  

I believe in your case I would approach things this way as you do have a tear. First I would be very careful regarding any sexual activity including masturbation. Second I would take penile length/girth measurements for a baseline starting point. Then last thing is I would still try to take your test result to a Dr who may be able to give you some educated info if surgery for attaching things is in order or not. You should be careful if you are looking into traction or VED as you do not want to completely tear your ligament. These two therapies for peyronies are successful to different degrees and a lot of members use them in their plan of action. Just keep an eye on your anxiety level and know that all of us men here have gone through something similar regarding our prized penises.             :)

Hi epictetus008. How is your cylindrical sheath/ the tunica albuginea? Most uros told me they can zip up in that organ within a month or two naturally so I've been told. I'm kinda in the situation, sex injury, except I was flying solo, by myself when it happened.

I once had a Doppler/ MRI or ultrasound whichever one I mean. It was years after the injury maybe even a decade, he said my organs were still intact. Meaning= whatever the definition of intact is.

So if you're gonna try alleviating it on your own, unfortunately because of uros dismissing it, try a few of these:

Try sleeping a lot, because nocturnal erections are good for healing. Sleep with a sheet not a blanket as to not constrict your erections.

Abstinence, try not to touch your penis, masturbate, or play rough house sports. Only that plus time can hopefully help.

Good diet, lots of exercise. The more you walk, the better off you will feel. Endorphins, and good for the natural testosterone boosting through way of daily exercise. I'm not implying you have low testosterone, I am just quoting what the pelvic floor therapist told me: she said I should even throw in some bench press if I was brave.

Anyway don't pull hairs from down there. I know kinda weird statement but that is a thing called trichotillomania that some people seriously do have, an ocd imbalance.

Try not to watch porn or Racey material. You may need to stay out of harm's way while it's healing.

Stress levels: minimize stress. Easier said than done.

Be around positive people, people you trust or have similarities with you. Just going to the gym to walk the track with a buddy is funner than feeling stuck in life.

My uro told me too, that if I'm ready to use the equipment down there, to not stroke it vigorously because that would cause a relapse.

When I was cooking up a storm I used to eat a lot of raw onion. Imo it helps with the body's ability to heal jmo. Lots of fresh juices, milk calcium, etc.

Most of this stuff was told to me from urologist, pelvic floor specialist and holistic nurse. I pray that helps man.
Penile fracture at 22, left untreated, did not heal properly, dealing with complications of the injury. Diagnosed with lacerations to the tunica albuginea, as well as Ed.

I have, I could have had some minor tearing of the tunica albuginea/CC and possibly Corpus spongeosum, though very minor. The main issue is definitely the lateral suspensory/fundiform ligament tear on the right side. There are so few specialists that have ever dealt with this that it's almost impossible to get proper care. Looks like I may end up having to pay a lot out of pocket (which I don't have) and traveling far to deal with someone that does repair it. May try whatever manners of conservative treatment I can first...

What you have described as per your initial injury, has all the telltale signs of a penile fracture which is one of the most common ways for it to happen, in that position when it does happen.

The key thing to try to understand is what other symptoms did/do you have. After reading your post several times just to be certain... It really does seem like it. Very similar symptoms to my case. You will have lingering pain for some time after what happened to you. The bent penis and the difficulty in having erections is also related.

What you need to do is look for a sexual medicine specialist in your area, which is different from a normal urologist. You need to get an ultrasound exam to confirm  what damage was done and to get an idea of your current bloodflow situation. From there, you can choose the most appropriate treatment.
