Is my dick broken?

I have just read NeedBiggerPenis’ post and realized that I might have some issues with my tool. I’m not certain whether I’m being a hyperchondriac, or whether there is something wrong. I’ve always thought my dick wasn’t working as well as it should be, but that, like its size, it was just one of those cruel twists of fate that I had to deal with.

I’m 22, in reasonable shape and not overweight. I don’t smoke and I almost never drink.

Here’s some of the problems:

1) My dick, when flaccid is often colder than the rest of my body. The head especially.
=clearly don’t have great circulation, but is this any different from your toes or fingers?

2) My erection starts to subside about 15 seconds after stimulation stops.

3) My penis head is not engorged unless I kegel in more blood when erect.

4) I often feel discomfort after cumming which I think originates right at the base of my unit.
=this used to be REALLY painful when I first started at around 13 or 14 (I can’t remember). Over the years it’s subsided, but is certainly noticeable the more times I do it in a day or in a period of days. It can range from a mild discomfort to pain.

I’ve been living with (I think) all of these symptoms since I first started masturbating and don’t really now if they’re normal or irregular. If it is a serious problem then I might be a few years too late.

Maybe I’m crazy, but I’d definately like some input from you guys before I whip it out in front of a doctor.

To be honest, I think it would be best if you whip it out in front of a doctor. ;)

Did you do the proper searches for Venous Leak? I would think you might have a mild “leak.” Don’t be bashful about the Urologist. Its what he gets paid for. To look and help heal dicks. Just sign up and go. It can’t hurt.

Having said that, how is your flaccid hang? Are you waking up with morning woods? Do you kegel at all? How often do you masturbate? Do you look at porn often? How hard do you grip when you masturbate (how is your technique). Is your girl rough with you? Do you masturbate by rubbing your dick on the arm rest of your sofa? How aggressive is your PE routine? From what time frame did you feel this decrease in EQ? Was it sudden, or gradual?

Answer these questions. And see a Urologist.

My flaccid hang has always been good compared to my erect size. I’d say above 4.5 in length but always very skinny.

I do wake up with morning wood and I do kegel daily. I can masturbate anything upto 2- 3 times a day. However I’ve been cutting it down to once every 3 days. I think I masturbate with a normal grip and usually use a body lotion as lube. I don’t have a girl at the moment and, tbh, don’t particulary want one until I’ve sorted out the many size and other issues with my penis. I do look at porn all the time.

My PE routine at the moment consists of about 3-5 sets of 15 mins wet jelqing every few hours throughout the day.

I honestly can’t remember when this started happening. It’s definately been long enough that I thought it was normal (possibly years?). Because I didn’t realize anything was wrong, I sort of ignored it. The weird thing is, that if there is a problem, then it has potentially been there since my early teens and it hasn’t healed.

Thanks for your input Invictus. It’s really appreciated. I think I might take the plunge.

If anyone else has had these problems or has anything else to add, please do.

Does anyone from the UK know the procedure is to see a urologist? Do you have to book an appointment with your GP first? Or do you make it with the urologist specifically?

redeyez,

I think I am in the same boat as you. I am 25 and have seen my EQ decrease in this past year. We are talking from an 8-9, to 50% after stimulation stops for about ten seconds. I went to see a doctor for a general check up and I mentioned it to him. He diagnosed me with anxiety/stress. While there is some truth to this since I do experience this, it’s something that I have been dealing with my whole life and never affected me in that department. Nontheless, I have been taking the medication for 2 months now and while it has helped with the anxiety/ stress, I still have my poor EQ problems. And I think it is more than psychological.

Few notes:

- I smoke but not much (maybe one a day) and just started about 2 years ago.
- I do not exercise much due to lack of time but my job is somewhat active.
- I used to watch a lot of porn, daily and I have drastically cut back on that.
- I feel fatigued much of the time, which the dr. blamed on the anxiety/stress as well. But have not seen that improve either.

Invictus:

I was interested in what you said about masturbation habits. Especially when you asked redeyez if he used the arm of a sofa. I think mines have been damaging as well. When I was younger I discovered masturbation by rubbing the underside of my penis on the bed. This later evolved to basically rubbing the underside of my penis on anything. The most common was a pillow. Sometimes it was more vigorous than it probably should have. So I rarely did the typical right hand stroke masturbation, it was always rubbing on a pillow (and oddly enough, I am sure at some point I did use the arm of a sofa too) Do you think this could have caused the damage? If so could it have caused a venous leak?

Any insight?

I wouldn’t have thought that mine had anything to do with stress - because I’m not a stressed person. However the symptoms seem quite similar. I’m surprised that if you did have a venous leak or something physically worng, that the doctor would not have noticed.

On a side note Slim, as well as having a similar issue, you seem to have joined at exactly the same time.

Maybe it was a cursed month.

Yeah it was a cursed month I think, although more like a few months for me…

Well the doctor didn’t notice because he didn’t really examine it physically. He went through the series of questions and since I was apparently so stressed and tired, he diagnosed it as psychological without really giving anything else much thought.

By the way is there any way to treat venous leakage? Or are we pretty much screwed if that were the problem?

I’ve been reading up on venous leakages on here.

There are certain things that they can do which all basically involve blocking up the busted vein. Surgery, apparently is the only permanent solution. I can’t believe that if you have a broken vein, that your body can’t sort it out. Pumping is possibly an option that might help, but I’m guessing it won’t do much on extreme cases. Other temporary solutions are to wear a cock ring which should simulate the vein closing up. Maybe for minor cases simply taking viagra or ciallis to help.

Mine must be very slight, because some cases on here are so severe that kegeling does nothing, or there is very little to no sensation, and masturbating has to be done with two hands (one to restrict blood). However - I am legitimately concerned with ED and have been for years. I did not realize that there might be something physically wrong with my penis, but finding this out explains a lot.

I guess we’re going to have to see a doctor. Apparently they are very reluctant to diagnose it. I’m probably going to research this a bit more on the internet.

If anyone else has any advice please let us know. One thing that I’m eager to find out is whether one can still PE after having it treated.

Redeyez- Good to see you are doing your homework. You have officially earned my respect. Yes, surgery can be done but it isn’t permanent, and not for most people. Search up Yataghan50. Pumping is a great option, which is why I am getting into pumping soon. Viagra and Cialis are both great options, which is what I did, actually. I still use the supplements to this day. I highly recommend this, but it can be expensive. Very expensive. Do some more search on finding generic tadalafil powder (Generic Cialis) for a less expensive alternative.

Yes you can still PE. I still do. But you need to rest, and PE LIGHTLY. You need to start with a lighter routine and work your way up. Cycling on/off with supplements while you PE is encouraged. You don’t want to jelq a limp dick, do you? Also, focus on warming up. This is essential.

Slim123- I dunno if your habit might cause slight ED or venous leak. Maybe if you did it REALLY vigorously. But my habits did. I gripped really hard and used lots of force. Also, my GF would squeeze and grip it REALLY hard because, I liked it. Anyways, you got to stop smoking. What do you expect man? You smoke a cigarette a day? Thats fuckin terrible! No offense, but if you want to get up to great EQ, you have to stop smoking. After a while, once you obtained good EQ, maybe you can smoke occasionally. You need to exercise.

Invictus believe me if quitting smoking was a sure fire way to get my EQ back to where it was, I’d stop now. Matter of fact I will officially stop as of today. Believe me I value my dick much more. So I will try and see if it helps. As fas as the reason I think my problem might be physical is because I can get aroused and get an erection, but within seconds it just goes soft. If I am with my gf I can maintain an erection through the whole session (although not as hard as I know it once was) but at least it doesn’t go completely limp. Another thing is the recovery time. I can have one session but thats it for the day. I am one and out! I used to go at it and get a hard on at will. Now once I finish once, I might as well roll over and sleep for the rest of the day.

Slim- it is a sure fire way to, maybe not get your EQ back to where it was, but get it back up. Which is one step closer, to where it was. Ya digg?

Sometimes physical problems might not be that easily identifiable, until you start things like smoking. I had ok EQ before, but when I started smoking marijuana daily and then becoming an alcoholic, my dick went down in the gutter. Some people can smoke and their EQ is fine. But for the people with a mild venous leak or some problem, the smoking/drinking will destroy your EQ. Thing is, even with several hours a day of basketball my EQ would still be bad because of the smoking.

Yes with my GF I was ok. I mean I was gettin play about a few times a week. But take away the play, and add smoking/drinking with minimal exercise, the outcome is predictable.

Best of luck to you quitting slim. Although I love cigars, hookah, marijuana, cigarettes, and gettin’ smashed with my mates, I too, value my dick so much more. Late.

Invictus: I had seen some of Yataghan50’s posts and I heard the surgery was a success - wasn’t it?

His was a very serious case of venous leakage, which mine (and I gather Slim’s too) certainly isn’t. The ED issue has been bugging me for a while, and I think I’ll definately need to do something about it and my penis health in general. My dick is a source of so many issues at the moment. I just don’t want to get with girls because of how skinny it is plus my fear of not being able to stay hard.

Do you think a break from PE would help? Or should I maintain a light routine to get it healthy? In either case I’m trying to cut out porn because I think it’s a bad influence.

Wouldn’t increasing girth help with venous leakages? Larger girth = more vein constriction due to bigger corpora cavernosa = less leakage?

No, I don’t think there’s a connection there. The venous leak could be anywhere in the dick.
