What is priapism and how is it treated

[addisonjones]

Priapism is a rare condition that causes an uncontrollable erection that lasts for an abnormally long time. It can be painful. It may be related to s*xual stimulation, but there are often other causes, such as medical problems or medications. Immediate treatment is important to prevent tissue damage and erectile dysfunction. When an erection lasts too long, blood pools in the p*nis. One of the functions of blood is to carry oxygen to the various organs in the body. When blood pools in the p*nis, erectile tissues no longer receive the oxygen they need to stay healthy and function normally. A prolonged lack of oxygenated blood can irreversibly damage or destroy penile tissue, which can lead to disfigurement. It can also lead to problems such as erectile dysfunction. The main symptom of priapism is a prolonged erection, usually lasting more than four hours without arousal or s*xual stimulation. If you have an erection that lasts four hours or more, you should seek immediate medical attention. This is especially urgent if you suffer from low-flow priapism, where blood is trapped in the p*nis.
