Causes of pain during erection

Many people say that sex is not the main thing. Such people are either lying or have never understood the beauty of life. But, no matter how it is (the main thing is not the main thing), it’s also impossible without it.

Erection pain – this is not only discomfort during sexual intercourse, it is also psychological stress and reproductive health disorders. It’s a shame to realize this, especially at a young age.

Is it possible to get rid of pain during an erection? Of course, now anything is possible! The only main thing is to listen to the advice of doctors and not delay treatment. No matter how, now we are not talking about something superficial, but about male dignity.

Causes of pain during erection

No matter how strange it may seem, this fact is possible at any age.

A normal erection is painless, otherwise there are a number of reasons:

• следствие сильнейшего возбуждения,
• long-term sexual abstinence,
• the use of contraception, lubricants and other various “tools” for sex.

Here we have listed minor processes that affect the quality of erection. Now let’s move on to examining the real problem:

• result of injury. A man’s condition depends on the severity of the mechanical impact on the genital organ. The strangest thing is that a penis can get injured without its owner noticing, for example, it turns over in a dream. Options for a frenulum tear or even a fracture cannot be ruled out.
• phimosis is also a consequence of pain during erection,
• болезнь Пейрони,
• priapism,
• prostatitis,
• some types of STDs: gonorrhea, chlamydia, etc.

If you have already experienced pain during an erection, then under no circumstances should you “sit waiting for a miracle.” Possible risk of impotence.

How pain occurs during erection

Now let’s look at what symptoms the listed causes of pain during erection have:

• With phimosis, the foreskin narrows, making it painful and impossible to open the head. Pain appears precisely at this moment in the area of ​​​​tension of the foreskin. During this period it becomes red and swollen,
• pain during erection caused by Peyronie’s disease occurs at the beginning of the development of the disease. Then the penis becomes covered with fibrous plaques, which are palpable. In an excited state, the genital organ takes on a curved shape, which makes intimacy difficult, and sometimes makes it completely impossible. In the final stages of the disease, the penis decreases in size,
• Priapism produces a painful, long-lasting erection that lasts several hours. As the disease develops, it provokes the appearance of scars on the cavernous bodies of the penis, which is a consequence of the complete disappearance of erections,
• Prostatitis is one of the most common and well-known diseases. Here the symptoms have a large and varied spectrum:
  • back pain,
  • soreness in the perineum, which extends to the testicles and penis,
  • pain in the rectum,
  • weak erection,
  • premature ejaculation,
  • frequent urination accompanied by pain,
• in the case of STDs (gonorrhea, chlamydia), burning and itching may be noticed during erection, covering the genitals. There is also discharge from the head itself, pain when urinating, and so on.

Pain after erection

The pain that occurs after an erection is rare compared to pain during it. Most often, the causes of this effect include venous stagnation of the genital tract. This problem can be solved in a simple way – sex or masturbation, since long-term abstinence is the cause of pain.

Pain during and after an erection are more serious symptoms.

With prostatitis, pain can occur before, during and after the squeak of excitement. Moreover, a man experiences pain both during sexual intercourse and in a calm state. Soreness is located not only in the penis, but also in related parts of the body: perineum, sacrum, abdomen, lower back, testicles.

Pain during erection

During an erection, pain is caused not only by physical discomfort. At such moments, a man begins to experience fear and shame in front of a woman, especially if at the most interesting moment his penis falls, or does not have the ability to reach the final moment (orgasm).

Pain during erection can cause withdrawal and a feeling of inferiority. But in essence, there is nothing to be ashamed of. A woman is also a living person, and must understand that any of us can “failure.” And if complexes appear only at the thought of consulting a doctor, then this is generally stupid. Doctors have seen even more serious things in their practice. In addition, postponing a visit to a specialist “until tomorrow” can lead to more significant problems, including a complete lack of physical attraction.

Pain in the penis during erection

Is there any cause for concern if the penis hurts during an erection?

Well, let’s start with what kind of pain during erection is bothering you?

Treatment of pain during erection

All the guys are already big, they understand that pain is not cured, but eliminated, and not forever. To get rid of this problem, it is necessary to treat the disease that causes pain during erection.

• at the initial stages of development, they are treated with preventive hygienic manipulations. How to do it? Rinse the head of the penis with decoctions twice a day. At the same time, for convenience, the foreskin must be moved in order to open the head as much as possible;
• Treatment with medications is suitable in cases where herbal tinctures are no longer effective, and surgical intervention can still be avoided. This course of treatment requires patience, since the therapeutic process itself is very slow, requiring gradual stretching of the foreskin using lubricants. The choice of lubricant type depends on whether the man is sexually active or not.

If yes, then doctors often prescribe Hydrocortisone, Clobetasol or betamethasone valerate cream.

If “no” – triamcinolone acetonide.

Creams or ointments containing alkalis or glycerin cannot be used. But steroid drugs are just what the doctor ordered.

In addition to the use of lubricants, water procedures are of great benefit;

• The need for surgery is determined by the doctor. For example, if scars have already formed, then surgical action cannot be avoided. The surgical process itself takes place under both local and general anesthesia, where the skin of the foreskin is excised;
• preputsmoplasty is a therapeutic surgical technique that preserves the integrity of the foreskin. It can also be performed under the influence of different types of anesthesia: local or general.

Mild forms of the disease, where small plaques are present and the penis is slightly curved, require the use of vitamin E in large doses, plus the drugs Potaba and Colchicine. Local use:

• calcium antagonists, for example, injecting Verapamil into the plaque,
• proteolytic enzymes such as “Lidase”, “Dimexide”,
• steroid drugs, for example, “Hydrocortisone”.

Physiotherapy uses phonophoresis, laser therapy and much more, which is necessary, according to the doctor.

But it is not a fact that drug therapy will help. The possibility, after conservative treatment, of surgical correction of the situation is not excluded.

The operation is aimed at returning the penis to its natural shape or, to put it simply, to “straighten” the penis; remove plaques.

The operation is carried out in different ways, for example:

• the curvature of the penis does not reach 45°, and its length is quite large, then in this case the penis is straightened by applying folds with non-absorbable plications to the tunica albuginea on the reverse side of the curvature,
• the curvature of the penis is more than 45° with a large length, the tunica albuginea on the side opposite to the curvature is made into elliptical sections, and then sutured. This procedure is called the Nesbit operation.
• if, due to curvature, the member is of insufficient length, then the operation is performed by dissection, in more rare cases, excision of the plaque with the elimination of the defect in the tunica albuginea using one’s own tissues: skin, venous wall, tunica vaginalis of the testicle, etc. Can be replaced with artificial substances “Pelvicol”, “Bard”,
• curvature plus problematic erections require prosthetics – dildo implantation, which resumes natural processes.

• Treatment with medications is prescribed if the erection lasts no more than 6 hours. The medicinal method reduces the flow of arterial blood and makes it possible for a complete outflow of blood from the penis. Therapy is carried out with vasoconstrictors “Phenylephrine”, “Mezaton” and drugs that reduce blood clotting, for example, “Heparin”,
• surgery. At this moment, various types of shunts are applied, which ensure the drainage of blood from the cavernous bodies of the penis. The most commonly used methods are:
  • “Ebbehoj” or “Winter”, insertion under local anesthesia of a biopsy or, if possible, thick needle through the head of the penis into the cavernous bodies of the penis with suction of blood. Most often, manipulations on one side are enough,
  • “El-Ghorab” is an operation where a shunt is placed between the spongy and two cavernous bodies of the head of the penis,
  • “Quackel” is the process of applying a shunt at the junction of the spongy and cavernous bodies. Manipulations can be carried out from one or both sides of the penis,
  • “Grayhack” – shunts are placed between v. saphena and the corpus cavernosum. This technique is used very rarely in practice, since there are a number of contraindications.

Traditional methods of eliminating pain during erection are effective only if the causes are not serious.

The initial stages of phimosis can be eliminated by bathing in the bath with the addition of the following tinctures:

• chamomile decoction,
• infusions of string or calendula.

If baths are used locally, their duration should be at least 20 minutes.

Peyronie’s disease is treated with the following folk technology:

• Horse chestnut kernels (20 grams) are crushed, then pour the resulting mixture into a container with boiling water (1 tbsp.), and boil for at least 15 minutes. The prepared decoction is divided into three equal doses, which should be drunk during the day. You need to take chestnut infusion for 3 months.
• treatment with leeches is considered the most effective way to get rid of scars and plaques. Exact recipe:
  • dried leeches – ? glasses,
  • heparin ointment – ​​15 g,
  • “Dimexide” – 2 spoons,
  • Acacia honey – 1 glass.

The listed ingredients are substances that make up the ointment for external use, which can be stored in the refrigerator.

The ointment is not applied to the problem area at night. The course of treatment ends when the prepared mixture runs out.

Prevention of pain during erection

Ways that can prevent erectile pain are:

• regular but not promiscuous sex,
• avoid injury to the penis,
• a timely visit to the doctor, especially if there is a reason.

Some diseases are not acquired over the years, but a congenital defect, for example, phimosis, therefore, it is almost impossible to prevent problems here, but it is possible to prevent possible consequences.

Safe sex, namely with a condom, can protect against STDs that cause not only erectile pain, but also more serious problems.

Compliance with personal hygiene rules also applies to preventive methods.
