Pain in the penis should never be ignored. There are many factors that cause penile pain. Penile fracture is the rupture of the corpus cavernosum, which provides rigidity by filling the penis with blood as a result of trauma while the penis is in an erection state. Although this situation is rare, it can cause trauma during sexual intercourse.
WHAT CAUSES PENIS FRACTURE?
Penile fracture (fracture) occurs due to difficult sexual intercourse, falling out of bed, masturbation or movements that cause the penis to bend and force during sexual intercourse. Forced movements on the penis during sexual intercourse and hard movements in the position where the partner is on top increase the possibility of fracture (fracture). In addition, congenital or subsequent curvature of the penis causes strain on the penis during intercourse, increasing the possibility of penile fracture (fracture).
ATTENTION TO SYMPTOMS OF PENIS FRACTURE
Penile fracture is most common in the age of 35-40. Patients apply urgently. Classically, sudden fracture sensation, moderate pain, sudden softening of the penis, bruising and swelling occur in the penis. In penile fracture, there is a curvature to the opposite side with the effect of bleeding. Less frequently, erectile dysfunction, curvature of the penis, blood coming from the tip of the penis (due to urinary canal rupture), bloody urine, decrease in urine flow, urinary urgency.
A SOUND IS HEARED AT PENIS FRACTURE
In penile fractures, sounds are normally an obvious symptom and have been described as glass breaking sounds. “Men who experience penile fractures may hear a popping sound followed by severe pain, swelling, and dark bruising. In that case, you need to go in and have a quick stitch,” adds urologist Dr Ryan Berglund. he adds.
