Priapism

Ruptures of small capillaries, damage to the area of the upper tissues lead to the development of priapism. The condition causes pain during erection. The presence of unceasing excitation is the cause of the deterioration of blood flow. The onset of ejaculation does not relieve pseudo-erection, which causes the effect of a tourniquet tightly tied around the organ.

To relieve an attack of priapism, a cold compress is applied, hospitalized, painkillers are administered, a catheter is placed

Long Sex
