A night of Viagra usage left a man with a fractured penis and a painful trip to the hospital.
Daily Mail reports that Uttar Pradesh took Viagra for a planned sexual encounter. Once the act was complete, his erection didn’t subside. When he attempted to masturbate to hasten along “the letdown,” nothing happened so he went to sleep.
The next morning, Pradesh’s child entered his room and jumped on the bed, attempting to awaken him, and mistakenly “fell over his penis.” After experiencing pain for two days, Pradesh sought medical attention telling doctors his penis was “deformed” and swollen.
After this eye-watering injury ‘he developed sudden severe pain in his penis and lost tumescence’, or the build-up of blood in his penis, the researchers noted.
Surgeons found a tear in his right corpora cavernosa – sponge-like tissue that stores the blood during an erection – which they repaired.
Good news for Pradesh, doctors were able to repair the injury.
