We get genitals without an instruction manual, so sometimes there can be doubts about what to do with them and what not to do with them. Let’s take a look at 3 things you should never do to your (or your partner’s) penis.
Everyone knows very well what actions the penis performs, but not everyone is clear about what actions it is not intended for. Let’s see what are the activities for which the male genitals are not suitable. After reading it, you can rest assured that you won’t end up in hospital or put your health at risk by doing it wrong, says dailystar.co.uk.
Don’t try to bend an erect penis
The penis is not designed to be bent, especially when it is erected. It is recommended not to bend it more than 30 degrees. However, sometimes everything cannot be controlled, and various injuries can happen during sexual intercourse, especially in positions where the partner is on top and leans back or forward too quickly.
The good news is that if the penis breaks, the injury is completely treatable. However, doctors say that men are very ashamed of it and rarely admit what happened to them.
Don’t bite
The skin around the penis is very sensitive, so biting it can cause serious injuries. According to an article published in the Visual Journal of Emergency Medicine in January 2020, a 43-year-old man was bitten on the foreskin by his partner during sex. The man initially did not think the injury was serious, but within five days his condition got really bad.
The pain became more and more intense and the tip of his penis started to turn black, so the man finally sought medical help. He was given intravenous antibiotics and, according to urology and infectious disease specialists, tissue necrosis had begun. This means that the cells at the tip of his penis had already died. Fortunately, he did not lose any part of his penis – after a course of antibiotics, the organ returned to its normal color, although it was noted that a slight deformity remained.
Also in this case, according to doctors, patients who have experienced such an accident often do not go to doctors, so the condition can worsen.
Don’t hit your penis (and with it)
The penis is very sensitive, so it can be seriously injured even if it seems to be lightly squeezed – during sex or in other situations. Some men like to use their penis as a spanking tool during sex, but this should be done very carefully to avoid injury, and it’s best to talk to your partner first to make sure this activity is acceptable to both of you.
