Spinal cord injury, nerve damage, ED.
Hey all, here’s my deal. I’m 35 and my dick is broken.
I do have have an SCI that has cause a lot of sexual issues. I have decreased sensation (maybe 25%) on one side of my penis, left side, maybe 10%, I am able to achieve an erection to maybe 75-80% but I have a hard time maintaining it since the sensation really isn’t there. Often I don’t know if I have an erection or if I’ve gone limp so during sex I discretely check to see.
I don’t care about getting off, I can do that if I mentally focus enough but holding an erection for an extended period is my real battle. Sex has never been about me but now that I’m in a relationship it’s about her and I really don’t want to under-perform anymore than I already am from my injury.
What have I tried.
I’ve started kegels which are very hard for me since I have what’s called saddle anesthesia or cauda equina syndrome, numbness from the ass, groin and behind the legs.
PRP (priapus shot) with stem cell, both into my spine and directly into my dick. Viagra 100mg, I have to take this just to be able to perform when the time comes, I take Cialis 5mg every day.
I’ve noticed that I have experienced shrinkage from atrophy, my girth and length are definitely down. I’m around average size maybe 5’5 now, I don’t have a measuring tape with me to verify these numbers.
I’m going to a hypnotherapist in a few days to see if that will help.
Obviously, I’m in a desperate situation. If you seen me on the streets you would never guess I was physical impaired in any way. Physically, I’ve kept myself in peak condition since I was 12-13. Even with all my nerve damage, I appear to be in better shape than 90% of the people walking around. I look 10 years younger than I am. I used to be a god in the bedroom, now I feel like a born again virgin but at least virgins can get solid erections.
Anyways, primary concern, erection strength and maintaining. I haven’t jelqed or stretched in 10+ years but I’ll get back to that as well. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
