Is Surgery The Only Effective Treatment For A Penile Bend Near The Base After Injury?
About 10 months ago while playing basketball, I took a knee to my penis, not a direct hit just more to the Right base of the penis. The next morning my wife and I got together and my erection had a bend or turn to the Left. Its now bent I estimate to 45 degrees. Its important to note that I was injured on the Right side and it now bends to the Left. This seems opposite of what I would think it should be. I did get checked out by a professional neurologists and they recommend a traction device, I refer to it as a mouse trap. I don t think its going to help me because my bend is too near the base and its nearly impossible to get the device to achieve a bend that near the base. I can still have sex but sometimes there is some pain during or after and my erection isn t as robust as it used to be. Is surgery the only fix here? Thank you for your time.
