Nice to meet you, Bentknob!
Sure, it was a constant erection that lasted for 6 hours, more or less. It wasn't painful, but it started to get annoying and managed to take it down with ice by myself, without needing to go to the hospital (I was 23 and had no idea an erection so long could be harmful). No idea of what could have been the cause, but it has not happened again. During the following months I started to notice a curvature that reached, at maximum, 17 degrees. It wasn't painful but I still was kinda scared by the whole thing. During the following years anything has happened, I've had a normal life, with a normal sex life, girlfriends and all, and I'm currently living with my current girlfriend. I'm not experiencing any problems at this moment, but I know that 30s is the age that many men start to have ED problems, and given that I have already this tiny scar that's causing the curvature I'm afraid of starting to have problems during this new decade I've just entered. If that will happen or not, we'll have to see! I'm just trying to anticipate to be mentally prepared if it happens Also, I just wanted to know of people around here that might have gone through something similar and about their current state

I'm interested in hearing more about the priapism you had.

Was the erection constant for 6 hours or did it come and go in that time?

Was the erection painful?

Did you have to go to the hospital for the priapism?

Had you done anything in particular that caused the priapism?

Hi guys,
It has been a really long time since last posting here, almost 7 years. I got here because seven years ago I had a priapism case of 6 hours that caused some damage to my left corpus cavernosum, causing hard flaccid and a 15 degree curvature to the left, without pain. Given that these were the only symptoms, I went on with my life and tried not to think about it. After all these years, I've managed to have a really happy and fulfilling life, but now that I've reached 30 years old, I'm afraid that, due to age, I might get some problem getting erections, given that I've scarring inside the left corpus cavernosum (please notice that this is inside the corpus cavernosum, and not in the tunica albuginea). At this time I've not experienced any ED yet, but I wanted to ask if there is a higher risk of getting ED earlier due to this scarring, even though it hasn't given any problems. Is it possible to have corporal fibrosis (inside one of the corpus cavernosum) and still getting erections with no problems?

I've combined 100mg Viagra and 40mg Cialis on multiple ocassions.

You may experience increase in side effects.

Taking paracetamol helps.

My small suggestion is that it is better to take viagra alone or Cialis alone. If you want to take viagra and cialis, then you should seek doctor advice is best option to improving your relationship health. 

Very cool. Fingers crossed it helps for hourglass/hinge/indentations as this is what Xiaflex is afaik not good for.

Quote from: Help100 on November 19, 2024, 03:12:50 PMIf there was no visible bruising, but I feel something at the injection site, and I keep losing overall girth flaccid and erect, could scar tissue develop over just a few days if I didn't compress?

I've seen people here say that if you're not getting normal erections for a while and you're losing size, to just go ahead and get an implant. But shouldn't a proper diagnosis come before such a life-changing surgery?

First, compressing is to keep bruising from happening. Should have nothing to do with scar tissue forming.

Second, I read most of the posts on this forum and I don't recall anyone saying if your are "losing size, go get an implant". I would have immediately responded to this. An implant is a last resort and only after being properly diagnosed. IF any surgeon told me I could get an implant just to increase size, I would run away..... fast.

I really don't think the vibrator had anything to do with triggering this. Or the edging/masturbation. But you definitely present with a more acute curve now. I think you are borderline severe. At least you have a baseline now but if it gets worse intercourse will become a challenge. When you pull out about halfway the angle causes you to slip out without control.

What does this have to do with Peyronies Disease?

I've read here that you should keep track of things with measurements, but what happens when the doctors -- including top specialists referenced on this board -- dismiss those measurements?

I've read here that you should compress the injection site after Trimix for minutes, but what happens when a top specialist's fellow says not to, that you should leave it alone following an ultrasound injection?

If there was no visible bruising, but I feel something at the injection site, and I keep losing overall girth flaccid and erect, could scar tissue develop over just a few days if I didn't compress?

I've now had two top specialists in a row say that they don't see any evidence of Peyronie's on ultrasound or MRI, but things keep getting thinner as evidenced by measurements. And that's months after I saw a different specialist, who said he did see a few different plaques on ultrasound, but that I was supposedly otherwise fine despite major ED, including weak nighttime/morning erections.

I've lost more than an inch of circumference, and doctors who have never seen it before flat-out say, "No you haven't, it's all in your head." ... And when I point to objective measurements (including flaccid ones taken by a pelvic floor physical therapist), they just deflect.

I've seen people here say that if you're not getting normal erections for a while and you're losing size, to just go ahead and get an implant. But shouldn't a proper diagnosis come before such a life-changing surgery?

I don't know, I'm just really confused.
