Patient's question:
I have severe premature ejaculation and want to get an inflatable penile implant. When it's erect, it bends and causes pain, raising concerns about nerve damage. What are the side effects of an inflatable penile implant? Can it be contagious? Will it lead to death? Can I still ejaculate? Will there be pleasure? Will I feel uncomfortable after the surgery? Will I feel like there's something in my body? How long does it last?Doctor's answer:
The penis causes pain due to external force during erection, which may have damaged the tunica albuginea. If there is no bruising on the skin, it may only be a minor injury, leading to psychological premature ejaculation. In this case, it is not necessary to implement penile implantation. It is recommended to visit the urology or andrology department of a local public hospital for a follow-up examination. Perform tests for penile erection nerves and penile blood flow, and also undergo negative pressure erection treatment. Premature ejaculation can be stabilized, but the treatment period is generally long, and it is prone to recurrence after treatment. Therefore, medication should be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay attention to personal hygiene.
