Urologist Gave Me Erectile Dysfunction / Soft Glans?

I'd like to clarify that I'm only 19 and before the appointment I had no issue getting full erections. I have phimosis and it has been troublesome so I made an appointment with an Urologist. I thought I had a growth under my foreskin so he examined my penis while I was under general anesthesia. He said he might circumcise me and do a biopsy if needed to see what it was. He didn't circumcise me, he forcefully retracted my foreskin while I was under general anesthesia which caused my foreskin to tear. It wasn't a growth, just build up due to my inability to retract my foreskin. After I woke up I noticed my foreskin was bleeding due to the tears. He just said to try retracting my foreskin in the shower. It bled off and on that day and made peeing a little painful since I can't retract my foreskin to pee.. I also noticed that my penis felt different. For example, it felt softer / lifeless. My shaft can get hard but my penis head can't anymore, it remains soft. It's like the blood won't flow to the glans when getting an erection. I don't think this is a psychological problem, I think it's physical. I don't know if it's due to nerve damage or a venous leak but I hope this can be reversed / cured without having to rely on Viagra to get an erection or any sort of medication. I don't know what I should do. It's been a couple days since the appointment and I'm stressed out, I don't want to live like this.

    For one i think you need to relax , im sure at your age it might sound like the end of the world but in my opinion i think its in your head .

    Stress can be a big factor in erectile disfuction

    The fact that your skin was torn and had slight pain while urinating can cause mental blocks .

    Id personally say take it easy. heal properly and things will get back to normal .

    if you feel unsure you can always get a second opinion from another urologist explaining the situation

      No, its not psychological. I've never had these issues before and my penis was clearly damaged so I know it's a physical problem. Despite the healed cuts my penis is bruised and purplish which wouldn't result from mental trauma
