Looking for support and answers

[workingman]

Hello. Well. I'm 30 years old. I first hurt my penis at about 25. My curve seemed to be getting worst and I very stupidly tried to force it back. One day I got up to pee and heard a pop. Pain in my right side of penis. The left side has always been thin but my penis size is above average so I was never too worried. I was very depressed when I first got hurt. I used a SizeGenetics device but not very often. After several months the pain went away. It seemed to be in a vain on my right side which I began calling the "pain vain". I had lost some flaccid length but seemed to gain back my erect length. I thought everything was OK. I went to a Dr. and he said I was normal and nothing to do. I since have a long term girlfriend and we are very much in love. My penis started to feel a little weird then all of the sudden the pain vain is back and it looks like I've lost the "padding" in my penis?

You can't tell when it is flaccid but you can see it when it is stretched out, only on the bottom half. It isn't noticeable when fully erect. I've always had some ED problems, mostly in my mind. I get nervous and it just wont get hard. Other times I'm super hard and can go for hours. Girlfriend is very supportive when I can't and loves it when I can, which is most of the time. Once it started hurting again, I got semi-hard erections and the right side buckled at the base. Super frustrating. Since then I'm using my traction device for 6+ hours a day, going on the 6th week. I got HIMS for ED and it works great but I know something is still wrong. Went to another Uro. Dr. today and once again was told I'm fine with minimal scarring but I know that isn't right. I'm going to make another appointment and see what they say. I have a great life and don't want to risk not being able to have a family. Any advice or similar situations? Thanks for reading.

Hey man,

How often are you having sex or masturbating? I recommend complete rest other than sex. It does seem like you have an active injury or one that has not healed yet. I do think traction is powerful and worth doing, you could consider drugs if you like and certainly supplements. Please consider the diet aspect of the disease, and possibly add heat and VED, both which are very effective at restoring penile health.

A specialist may offer you other options, but I'm not one to recommend invasive surgeries.

If you have a vein, I highly recommend changing your diet and considering your vascular health. You could take something like pine bark extract (pycnogenol) which helps veins heal and do some fasting or radically low carb like I have done for the last two years. Stick to monounsaturated fats, avoid carbs or processed carbs, and eat as anti-inflammatory as you can.

Hey Bro,

Yeah, I would typically masturbate once a day. I have a pretty high sex drive. I have sex about 2-3 times a week depending on how much me and girlfriend see each other. We are going to be moving in together so I would expect that to go up but only if I feel that it isn't making anything worse. I do have a VED but I don't really know what I'm doing. When I used it the last time this happened years ago it felt pretty good but one time when I used it while still having pain in my vein it hurt pretty bad for a few days. Might give it a go after this settles down a little bit. My diet has been crap here lately but I'm not out of shape by any means and my blood pressure is always normal. I still need to change my eating habits. I just bought some Pine Bark Extract from Amazon so hopefully that helps.

Thanks for the tip!

In that case I would avoid masturbation at all costs. Rest is very critical in the initial phase.
After that, go hard on your diet, even fast, to get your body in an anti-inflammatory state.

Have you noticed a bend yet? For me, I experienced lain for about 6-8 months and then after pain went away, my bend started. I talked to my doctor while having pain, but he said probably just a minor injury due to ruff sex and I should not worry....but then my bend started. And now I have a whole different set of circumstances to deal with.  Act quickly and don't wait like I did. I too have a high sex drive, but I struggle with the confidence of my "look". But my wife is very supportive and I hope to get back to straight as possible to continue to fulfill mine and my wife's desires.
