Hey guys, I have had hard flaccid syndrome for about 10 years, I was having sex with someone for the first time two weeks ago and slipped out and hit her pelvis, bending the erection. It was painful enough not to continue, lost erection gradually, and woke up to massive bruising on the underside of the shaft. There appears to be a stiff lump at the base of the penis where the shaft proceeds from the testicles, and my erections are currently downward bending and slightly to the right. Previously I had a 15 degree curve upward. It is also hard to achieve a full erection. I was waking up with painful erections in my sleep until a couple of days ago. I'm seeing Dr. Levine tomorrow.

The woman I was seeing I really liked, I could honestly see myself falling in love with her at some point and I'm so F^@$!ng gut wrenched by all of this.

Is it injury + bend = peyronies?

Or is there an outcome where this is a normal wound healing process and my erection quality will improve instead of worsen?

Hey mat.

The symptoms you describe are very consistent with the classic penile fracture signs.
-loss of erection, massive bruising, pain.... You should have gone to the hospital to get either surgery or at least "conservative treatment". You should have been seen by a Urologist. Of course your erections are having issues now. Your penis has internal scar tissue and it will heal and leave you with deformities. IT will take time for you to adjust to that. Mentally and physically.

Eventually it will stop as it heals more and more. I presume Dr. Levine will confirm this.

It may or may not lead to peyronies and now it is too soon to tell. For now this is just your wound healing.

As for your erections improving... hardly... The outcome is hard to say now and you will need to be fully healed to see what function you have left. But if you can still achieve erections, that is a good thing because it may get harder with pills.

Please stay with us.

Yes, please report back on what Dr. Levine said. At least you can rest assured your in very good hands.

Best,

I contacted Levine's office the morning after and was actually sitting at my car outside the ER waiting to hear back. Since the loss of erection was very gradual and I could continue but decided not to due to pain, it was confirmed by Gina, his PA, that it was not a fracture. She said I likely disrupted one of the veins and that it was an injury that would likely not lead to the formation of scar tissue when asked. I emailed her a bunch of pics. I'm about to leave to go to the doctor I'll let you guys know what was said. When you have a penile fracture, the erection is lost almost instantly, and bruising occurs immediately as well and fills the whole cavity, not parts of it.

Dr Levine is usually spot on with his diagnosis's .  I liked his witty personality. I never saw his PA but I know he has 2 of them working for him. Keep us posted and remember not to let this get a hold of your emotions too much.

Again.... if you go through my post history, back to 2015.... you will see my messages and discover that my symptoms were very similar to yours. Just because you didn't lose the erection right away doesn't mean it isn't a penile fracture. It is a minor one, but still a fracture. I also did not lose my erection and continued having sex no problem. That was until the next day that i had an hematoma on the penis and couldn't get an erection after masturbating.

"she said"..... So somebody told you? but were you seen by anybody? i don't think so by what you are telling us here. It makes no sense to believe that phone diagnosis...Sorry.

you need to be examined, more likely than not to having Ultrasound/imaging studies and then you can get to know what happened. You have all the classic symptoms of a fracture. Your penis bent... you lost the erection... pain and bruising. And you still believe you didn't had a fracture?

You know what you should do? total abstinence from sex and masturbation for 6 weeks. This is the recommended treatment for somebody that does not have surgery to repair the fracture. But you choose who you want to believe despite all the signs being there and your erections crap.

You also did not went to the hospital after those symptoms so..... we have a pattern here?

It was a hematoma and he drained it, got ultrasound and all of the erectile tissue was intact, hence no fracture. No blood in urine. Levine suspects one of the veins busted by the urethra. Erections are much better after the drainage but are still all f'~c<+d up. The underside by the urethra where the hematoma/needle site was/is is tight and feels like it's healing so it's probably inflamed. I'm going back in two weeks and I'll be contacting his office next week for a report to see what he wants to do. He basically just prescribed manual traction for now. He thinks things will go back to normal at some point but we'll see. For now the injury site is pulling my erection downward and giving me an indentation which narrows the base. Stop being such a F^@$!ng dickhead btw, I thought you people were supposed to be nice? I could get erections all along, I lost the erection because I stopped having sex. I'll take the advice and lay off on all sexual activity from this point on.

Overall the prognosis appeared good, all considered, and I know that my erections will improve, and I will do everything within my power to heal, however I am uncertain of a timetable, and I am quite scared.

Well... now that you included more details, the story makes more sense and i must that that in THAT case i am glad that you got the help you needed. And even, consider yourself lucky because it could have been worse. I am a nice person. And i sympathize with the ones that fracture their penises or are in a similar situation. I just thought that you neglected your issue, but it turns out that you didn't.


At this point, follow Dr. Levine's recommendations and give it time. Maybe he will prescribe you Cialis for some time so you regain back your confidence?

Hey Mat I your issue sounds almost identical to the situation I find myself in!

Two weeks ago I was having sex with my girlfriend and 'missed' the entry point - didn't feel it bend - just pain and some blood.

Next morning was OK and even had a normal erection - but the the brusing started to come out..

I did go to A&E (Emergency Department for you US guys!) and saw a Dr who said that it wasn't a fracture and expect the bruising to last a couple of weeks. The bruising got worse - again identical to you - on the underside mainly - wrapping round to the sides a bit as well

So two weeks later, there is still some brusing, but it is fading - but now I have this band of hardness near the base of my penis mainly on the underside but it reaches round to the sides as well.   Also identical to you - I used to have a slight curve onwards - but now when I get an erection it's curving to the right slightly (where the brusing is still apparent) and also slightly downwards.

It's not painful to have an erection - but I masturbated for the first time yesterday and there was some mild discomfort when moving over the 'lump'.

How are you doing now?

I'm trying to work out if I should go and see my Dr and get a referral to a Urologist- or just to trust the ER Dr and wait
