What to Do If Your Penis Breaks

Our new friends at Carnal Nation have a helpful little Q&A up about what to do if you’re having some hot, rough sex and your, um, tunica albuginea ruptures:

The inside of your penis contains three long narrow “bags” filled with spongy tissue… The tough membrane covering these bags of blood-engorged tissue is called the tunica albuginea. Occasionally, too much force in the wrong direction will rupture this membrane, and the blood will escape from the spongy tissue into the rest of your dick—sort of like a pail of water with a hole in it. You’ll probably feel pretty intense pain; you’ll definitely see a big bruise and a bend in your penis; and you’ll most definitely feel absolutely terrified.

Their advice? You’re fine. Ice it and call the doctor in the morning.  If the pain is extreme and won’t subside, or if you’re on blood thinners, you may want to go to the emergency room.  The bad news: Some urologists will want to repair the damage with surgery. But it might heal just fine on its own.

We’ll stick to masturbating to porn, thanks.  By CHOICE.
