I tore my ACL and just received clearance to have surgery today. My surgery will be this Saturday.
The doctor that approved me to have surgery told me my EKG says I have a slight cardiomegaly (slightly enlarged heart) so I made an appointment with my local cardiologist.
I was thinking maybe this has something to do with my Penile venous leakage. I’ve read when you have erectile dysfunction it can be a sign that something is wrong with your heart.
Is this true?

I actually think after my heart attack in 2013 was the down hill with ed, it worsened over the last 7 yrs and still not there. So , I believe it does affect it!

It's probably related to erectile dysfunction and heart problems, but I don't consider heart problems to be the main cause of a venous leak ...
I am young and I have a venous leak with no heart problem

If you have clogged arteries anywhere in your body you can have clogged arteries elsewhere or anywhere in your body.

Clogged cardiac arteries can lead to heart attach or angina.

Clogged penile arteries can make it difficult to get an erection.
