Sex accident/Erection problem

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hi. I am new here, and writing this post in hopes that someone can help me with my problem. I am 18 years old. I have a girlfriend and obviously we have regular sex, sometimes multiple times a day, and I've never ever had any issues, I could easily get an erection (even when I didnt want it) and keeping it for a long time wasn't a problem. That was until 2 days ago we tried a new position (I was laying face up, she was on top of me, face up too) and it was fine until one of the "strokes" where I missed her vagina and hit the side of it. It hurt for a second and I felt like a "lightning" feeling going through my penis, but we continued and I didn't make anything of it. But now, two days later, I find myself unable to get an erection. I feel no pain or anything whatsoever and my penis doesn't look any different, maybe just a little bit smaller when flaccid. Im unable to get a full 100% erection, something that was very easy for me before, and instead it gets to 70% maybe maximum and that's when I can get it hard at all. When I hold it, it feels very different, almost as if it has a different shape. It also feels very limp and empty, even when hard. If I let it go for 2 seconds it will instantly become flaccid before my very eyes. I used to be able to get an erection whenever I wanted just by thinking about it two days ago, and now I find myself struggling to even get a semi.

Any help would be much appreciated as I am quite scared about this,

Thank you.

    I don't want to alarm you, but I think you should go to A&E to get checked out.  It is possible to damage your penis internally, and while that seems unlikely (since you don't seem to be in great pain, and there's no obvious injury or discoloration), early treatment is highly recommended.

    You're probably fine, and it might be a long wait for nothing, but this isn't a part of your body you want to take chances with.

    If you could tell us what the docs say, it would be appreciated.  Good luck!

      Oh, and don't be embarrassed - they've seen it all before.  Even if you do need treatment (and they might just tell you to abstain from sex for a few days), they see far more unusual cases than yours every month.

      If you're American and wondering what I mean by "A&E", it stands for Accident and Emergency, and the American equivalent would be ER ("emergency room"wink.

    You need to see a doctor immediately. According to the internet you may have fractured your corpus cavernosum. Which keeps you hard when erect. Or you may have injured your stiff tunica albuginea.

    Both are considered penis injuries that only can be corrected by a doctor. Unless it is corrected you may not be able to get any erections now or in the future.

    I am not a doctor, but the results could lead to erectile disfunction or ED.

    Hope you do not delay in getting help now!

    I would go seek treamtnet. Dont be embarrased about it, but the treatment would not hurt. You may ave damaged the tissue which may be the issue. Best wishes!
