Patient's question:
I am 30 years old. Four years ago, I had a spinal nerve block surgery. Before the surgery, my erections were normal, but after the surgery, they became weak and quickly softened. I suspect it might be due to the surgery. I don't know if this condition can be treated.Doctor's answer:
I would be happy to clarify this for you. For your situation, the surgery involving the transection of the nerves on the back of the penis is generally recommended only by private hospitals. This is because before the surgery, your penile nerve sensitivity is normal. Erection hardness can be stabilized, but the treatment period is usually long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, during treatment, medication must be used according to the symptoms. Additionally, patients need to maintain a light diet, avoid stimulating foods, and not smoke or drink beer.
