Penis stiff/hard/rigid when not erect and retraction issues Posted: 03-23-08 17:48pm
Hello, new to the board. I know nobody
likes reading long winded posts, so I'll
cut straight the chase. I am 27 year old
caucasian male, slightly overweight. When
I was 15, i was wrestling around with some
friends and felt a strange "pop" in my
groin. Didnt know what it was, but it felt
weird. Went to the bathroom and discovered
my penis had almost completely ratracted
and was now hard to the touch even thought
it was not erect. Being young and
embarrased I did not tell anyone.A year
later I finally told my father and we went
to the doctor. He seemed unconcerned and
said it wouldnt probably correct itself.
It never did.
Like I said, Im 27 now and its only gotten
worse.Anything physical, ANYTHING, from
picking up a box to carrying a bag, to
running, causes it to shrink massively. I
know that physical activity causes
retraction but this is beyond normal. It
is also stiff to the touch even when not
erect, but by physical stimuli it will
regain its elasticity until you stop, and
then it will stiffen up and retract again.
When stiff, not erect, the length is
1-1.5" . When properly flaccid, and before
the injury it was closer to 3". I can
achieve and maintain an erection just
fine,and for a good 1-2 hours post orgasm,
the retraction/stiffness is better,
possible blood flow issue? No painful
urination, but there is some frequency
there.
Went to a urologist, he said he felt some
fibrous tissue, possible early peyronies.
But he thought there was nothing to worry
about. My penis does not have any sort of
bend in it. I have some additional
symptoms (such as pain/tingling in the
testes) but if anyone reading this has
ever encountered anything like this
before, I am really at a cross roads with
what to do in my life because of this
problem.
