What is priapism?

Patient's question:

I have a female friend who studies medicine. Yesterday, we had sex, and she told me that I have priapism after we finished. I don't know what field of medicine she studies, but after we had sex, she said that I have priapism and that she expects me to go to the hospital for treatment. But what is priapism? Is it serious?

Doctor's answer:

Erectile dysfunction refers to the condition where the penis does not become firm or cannot achieve an erection before sexual activity. This condition requires timely medical attention and treatment, otherwise, normal sexual activity cannot be carried out. It is recommended that you do not experience psychological stress in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood at all times. Engage in more outdoor activities, avoid foods that reduce immunity, which will help in the recovery of the condition. Do not smoke or drink beer regularly, and ensure a nutritious and balanced diet.
