Dick in Danger: Extreme Awkward Boners
Priapism is a condition whereby men experience unwanted and painful erections (without any sexual stimuli) that just don’t go away. Not only is this condition embarrassing and painful, it can lead to permanent damage to the penis if left untreated. Often linked to blood diseases like sickle cell disease and leukemia, as well as to spinal chord trauma, this condition is fairly widespread. Other causes include bites from the Brazilian Wandering Spider! In any case, Priapism is bad news all around. Over time, it can lead to permanent erectile dysfunction (the flaccid kind) that can’t be reversed by Viagra. Fortunately, new research into treatment has been very promising.
New Cure for Chronic Hard Times?
Beach boner: is this guy in need of penis enlargement?
Previously, the most common treatment of Priapism was to physically drain the penis of blood. New studies are suggesting that an already FDP-approved drug called olyethylene glycol-linked adenosine deaminase (PEG-ADA) can be injected to treat the problem. PEG-ADA is traditionally used to treat a deficiency of the adenosine deaminase enzyme, which leads to Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease (SCID) AKA “Bubble Boy Disease.” Thanks, Bubble Boy! Full-fledged clinical studies have not been carried out however, so it could be little while before doctors will start prescribing PEG-ADA for this new purpose. But this news should provide new hope for men who suffer from Priapism.
