Firm flaccid penis

Yes.

You need to come to terms with living with it is the best advice I can offer.

If you don’t you are going to live a tortured existence. Bad things happen I’m afraid (this is the third serious illness I’ve had and I’m 28!), it’s now up to you to make something good come out of it.

Want my theory?

This is a nerve related issue within the corpus chambers.

I don’t think it has anything to do with the pelvic floor region/perenium but who knows.

All I know is it’s a quite shocking thing to experience and I am staggered that urologists do not even have a theory of what is going on. To be a medical anomoly is hugely depressing.

I agree about this being a nerve related injury. At least in some cases. The instantaneousness of the injury speaks in favor of this, as does the numbness. When a nerve is severed, it can be difficult or impossible for it to reconnect. And nerves grow very slowly (someone mentioned 1mm pey year).

If someone has numbness, “pins and needles” feeling, difficulty getting erect but not keeping an erection - all this points to nerve damage.

If this was just a nerve issue with the corpus chambers then how do you explain your scrotal numbness?

I can’t believe I have “severed” a nerve, Owen.

I was told by Dr Dean, and it’s one of the few things I believe, that had I done that there would have almost certainly been some pain and bruising.

I can’t believe I severed a nerve and it just wen’t numb without any pain. There would’ve been noticeable pain and I would’ve stopped jelqing if I was starting to severe a nerve, don’t you think? There wasn’t any pain, just a stretching sensation that comes with running your forefinger and thumb down your penis for a minute.

I assume you are right. Perhaps it’s some other kind of nerve injury then?

An update here,

For a while with my ED meds I was doing alright even though the effects are lessening the more I take it. I am about to take a week or two break from it.

My FF seemed to be gone for a few months, although the ED persisted. I am unsure of why, but about two weeks ago the FF came back. I could definetly feel it down there after not having it for some time.

I really don’t know what to say guys, this seems to definetly not be something that will just heal on its own.

I strongly encourage all of you hard flaccid sufferers to go to the new website one of our members at the pegym has made called hardflaccid.org. We need to collaborate and tackle this problem together which is exactly what we are trying to do. We have about 19 people who have taken the survey at the website and we need more.

We had one of our members recently take his ultrasound standing UP and a few other tests I’ll edit this post to reveal the names of those tests when I get the chance. Anyway, he tool the test standing and it showed that he had zero to little bloodflow to his penis. At one point, it showed blood was flowing in the WRONG direction. On top of this it showed greater bloodflow to the dorsal side of the penis in comparison to the other.

The dorsal bloodflow thing I literally just mentioned was when he was laying down as he took the same tests standing up and then laying down for comparison. When laying down it showed only low- to low normal bloodflow, and if I am not mistaken the dorsal thing is important because that would be on the top of the penis, yet the hard flaccid sufferers when getting any relief (penis relaxing) tend to have no blood to the corpus spongiosum (which is on the other side of the dorsal side I believe). Also hard flaccid sufferers tend to not have their corpus spongiosum engorge, and sometimes even the glans will be mushy. We have a few other members one or two of them, that are hopping onto the bandwagon and going to get these tests STANDING which is very important due to the fact that we need as MUCH documented medical tests that at least show a problem, to add to the website, present to medical professionals, etc. I too will be getting these tests once my insurance allows me to.

We all need to band together in order to get a cure, for our individual efforts are futile. Don’t sit on the sidelines waiting for things to happen, for if you do that, you are only making our efforts less likely to help. Calling all sufferers to come out of your shell and contribute. Further instructions will of course be shared if and when you guys come to help. Get in on the pegym, get registered there and get to the forum section which is concerning this all (the penile anomalies section in the ED section). We need as many men as possible. Some of our members have found doctors that ARE interested too.. It is time to shine and take our lives back.

Will you sit on the sidelines and let this consume you, or will you take action? Will you be a hero?

Has anyone gotten rid of this firm flaccid thing yet? Will refraining from masturbation help?

Will jelqing help?

BUMP. This is very urgent!

Check pegym.com under injuries and also check out hardflaccid.org

I’m sure it is.

Read the thread.

I don’t believe jelqing causes it, I believe it is a pelvic floor tension problem. Similarly, abstaining from sex or masturbation will make no difference to the cause, though will give you slight relief of symptoms, that is, untill you ejaculate again.

I have a poll concerning this, everyone please becoming numbers, in the name of science!

Tweaking - POLL - Clarification in Deflated glans and Firm Flaccid

I have suffered from firm flaccid once for about 4 months in the past. I’d say about 3 years ago. During sex I pressed on my perineum in an effort to kill my orgasm and last longer.

I didn’t press too hard, but it was enough to kill my erection. I went immediately soft. The “fight or flight” syndrome kicked in from this mentally traumatic event, and I

Instantly suffered from firm flaccid for 4 months. So for me, this was largely psychological. I had the usual symptoms.. Numbness in the glands, underside of the penis was

Desensitive as well as the sides of the penis. I also noticed a pale color and coldness in the glans. I took ginkgo, vitamin b, green tea, zinc, and magnesium. I also quit any type

Of stimulation whatsoever and let the thing heal. I cardio exercised regularly.. Not with weights however. My pelvic floor muscles were extremely tight, and I was able to relax them

By accepting the fact that this condition would go away with time. Eventually I had some weird pains in my perineum, and like a bolt of lightning my penis gradually came back to normal.

It did take months.. I noticed slow improvements, and toward the final stages of recovery to wear my penis became functional again an instant shock of feeling. The firm flaccid still came on

A little here and there especially during exercise during the next 8 months or so, but it goes away eventually. Unfortunately, my firm flaccid is back again with tight pelvic floor muscles because I lost an

Erection during a clamping session and experienced the same “flight or fight” feeling. I am currently 3 months recovering from this injury, but I am hopeful that this will heal in time. The pelvic floor muscles are

A big part of this. If they are tight, they can compress the mesh of nerves in the perineum; similar to “cyclists syndrome”. However, the pelvic floor muscles are extremely volnerable to stress and mental

Anxiety. You just have to give up your penis mentally to gain it back later for this to go away. For me, I became more spiritual and restored my relationship with Jesus Christ, and I trust that He will heal me again.

No more premarital sex or PE for me, but I hope this helps some of you guys. I can not comment on those who have experienced pops or anything like that, but I hate to admit this but most of the hard flaccid

Thing is mental because I believe it largely results from pelvic floor dysfunction, which can mentally driven.

I have two hip/groin injuries which i think might be the cause for my hard flaccid + deflated glans. I literally had the best glan pumping when i had an erection but now it’s horrible. I also have lower back pain all the time and don’t know where that is coming from. I will be making an appointment with the doctor to fix all these out. Makes me pretty depressed since i am only 21 but i am staying positive and just trying to learn more about the topic.
