Long standing Jelqing injury need advice

I think that is what the doctor would decide. No one here is qualified to discuss or even treat nerve damage. What some good hearted guy might tell you on how to get better may in fact cause even more damage. If it was my penis I would go to a doctor because if you screw it up really bad it might take much longer to fix. Can I ask you since you said this injury happened 6 months ago why you haven’t seen a doctor yet? I know I run to the doctor when something is wrong with me and so far he’s kept me alive.

It’s been a little over 4 months. Being alternately minded as I be I’m not one to trust the medical world. I haven’t been to a doctor for years besides getting blood tests done. I fix myself usually by natural methods. I might try the l-carnitine.

I know of a men’s health doctor that treats ED, he charges a lot but I’ll go see him as soon as I am able. I just feel like after I’ve spent another thousand they’ll tell me there’s nothing they can do except send me to a psych for counselling but I suppose it’s worth a try.

One other thing, I don’t masturbate, haven’t for years on moral grounds (yet I jelq’d?) That’s why I didn’t get hard while jelqing, my head doesn’t associate my hand with sexual pleasure. But before this life destroying decision I would could rock hard just looking at my beautiful girl.

I am not against alternative health but if you’ve got a severe injury from ANYTHING it’s time to see a doctor. Damage can and often does mount over time. Tissue injured can in fact die, even after the punishing stimuli is long over with. Immediate attention for serious injuries is paramount unless you’re willing to accept the chances of permanent injury and take responsibility for not having done all you can to help yourself.

I understand you do not like doctors. But you can’t very well diagnose yourself because you aren’t a doctor. The longer you wait, the worse it’s likely to be.

Additionally, if you haven’t masturbated for years you likely no idea you were manipulating your penis as hard as you were. Even so, to get nerve damage you’ll feel odd tingles, shooting pain and coldness afterward. I have nerve damage in one of my toes from boots that damaged my left foot and it still will tingle, go cold and act strange. I knew the boots were hurting my foot but I expected them to break in. It just didn’t happen and my issue got worse.

You need medical attention. The penis is several times more complex than a big toe.

Search “Acetyl L carnitine nerve regeneration pubmed” “Acetyl L Carnitine toxicity pubmed” research, and think for yourself. Consulting a specialist and combining both knowledge bases is surely better than being ignorant and simply blindly following advice with the assumption that “qualified” means infallible.

Acetyl L carnitine is also used by a lot of peyronie’s disease suffers and appears to have an excellent safety profile.

If I thought an MD could cure me I’d be there in a flash. I’ll go anyway though when I can. Yes I don’t masturbate but I used to, and pain is pain whether your used to it or not. Perhaps you would be more sensitive from not bashing it all the time.

The Penis wasn’t designed to be pulled on, like your elbows and wrists can take stretch cause they’re designed to pull, and pain is felt when it’s too much. Pain from that kind of manoeuvre isn’t easily registered is obvious from the many poor folks who have injuries like mine. The penis has no bones inside to protect it from that kind of abuse. It’s far more delicate than most imagine. Some get away with it I suppose but others to their horror do not. And it’s not like lifting weights where the thing your building is the thing your actuating so you can overwork it without knowing. Anyhow thanks for the advice and I hope this story can be a warning to people to be careful with themselves.

Okay, hang on. I’m decent at math. You aren’t adding up here.

You repeated you felt no pain when you got this injury. You stressed this point. So naturally it seemed as though you had no idea what you were doing.

PE has made me more sensitive. Additionally, I’ve never injured myself jelqing, as I can easily tell if I’m tugging too hard or squeezing too hard. You, according to your OP, cannot and this is how you say you got your injury. So telling me I’m not sensitive when you couldn’t tell you were doing yourself drastic harm doesn’t add up. Otherwise, the injury you have would be very common. In all my years you’re the first to report this that I’ve actually seen.

Unless you like gambling with your health there is no excuse for waiting months to be treated for a dire condition. It’s your penis and your life but you also have to bear the sum of your choices.

I can relate to you. I had an injury 9 years ago where my sensitivity is maybe 10% left. I went through a very depressing time for years. I have since then adapted to it. I didn’t have the money to go to doctors unfortunately. I was very suicidal for the first three.

Unfortunately when it happened to me I bent it back all the way very hard and fast while having intercourse. I didn’t feel any shooting pain at all. My feeling was never the same. No more throbs.9 years later too. Maybe a couple of shock feelings a year. That’s it.

Ok maybe I don’t articulate myself real well, all I am saying thoughtful is that the sensations I felt while doing the motions were not significant enough to tell me I was doing such serious damage. And I know my injury is on the extreme side of bad but I’m certainly not the only one who has ruined their once happy lives via PE.

Thanks tbone yeah I’m in the suicidal stage at this point, I inhealthily fantasise about such things but I won’t do it. I’ll have to adapt eventually. Its killing me and my depression is hurting everyone around me especially her. I’m glad you adapted and that you have gives me some hope that I can one day too if it doesn’t get better.

Just to be clear TBoneD said he injured himself having sex
A couple of recent similar posters also injured themselves via sex or masturbation.

PE does carry some risk and that’s made clear in a couple of places on this site along with the fact that there is an injury forum, everyone should be aware of the risk.

Nobody ever warns you though that jerking off or having sex could break your penis.

Go and see a Doctor mate and good luck.

I’ve seen some nasty injuries. From botched surgeries to hanging accidents. PE certainly carries risk but you have the only jelqing story that seems to have a catastrophic injury. I have jelqed many times and no matter how I felt, I never pulled on myself that hard. The way you got hurt you’d have to use a truly amazing level of strength that you would have to have felt. That’s what makes no sense.

If you are suicidal, you need medical attention. Immediately. It’s imperative. I cannot imagine how you have avoided it all this time with an injury to such an important body part that weighs on your mind like this…

I pushed through for a long time. It has made me stronger. I understand where you are at. The feeling of less masculinity. It is very hard( no pun intended).

I became alot more emotional of a man to compensate. I was already sensitive before hand.. If you ever are struggling don’t hesitate to hit me up. You are not alone brother. God bless you.

There’s more than a PE injury at play here. You should seek professional help for your suicidal ideation.

Are you exercising? Jogging? Swimming etc? I’d strongly recommend it. This also increases nerve growth factor and.. may contribute to greater emotional stability.

The injury itself is very traumatic.
