Ligament tear, anyone else?

Postby epictetus008 » Mon Sep 30, 2024 1:16 pm

Hello all, wondering where I should post this to see if others have had similar experience, or if I could be linked to threads that are similar. Already tried searching. Here's my story:

Had a injury while having sex with her on top around July 25, came out and penis essentially bent on her pelvis with her weight coming down. Went to ER 2 days after they seemed to think I didn't have a penile fracture, though thought there could be micro-trauma to the shaft. Symptoms coincide with a lateral tear of the suspensory/fundiform ligament. Pain at/near base of penis and in groin/scrotum on right side, to the point it is even painful to walk at times (feels like a pulling/strain). Now penis is angled, rotates and curves to the left while flaccid and erect, whereas before it was straight. As well as feeling looser/unstable, especially when pulled to the left. The penis also hangs lower/longer while flaccid and has an almost rubbery feel to it now. Erections generally cause pain (at right base) especially if prolonged, and REM cycle erections often cause periods of waking up with pain/soreness (especially at right side base and right groin/scrotum area) sleep is thus heavily impacted as well. (Not certain how pertinent it is to all this but I do have hEDS)

I've been to around 8 urologists, none of them have ever seen suspensory/fundiform ligament tears before and have been absolutely no help whatsoever. Had an MRI, which shoes partial tearing on the right side of ligaments. Had to have a friend that is a neurosurgeon read it though and confirm as the radiologists nor uros here didn't even pick up on it.

There's very little literature on such injuries, so I am wondering if others have experience with this, or could point me in the right direction.

You may have ligament damage but based on the twisting/curving it sounds like you've developed Peyronie's as well. Urologists will be muchpre familiar with that term and potential treatments

Eight urologists can't figure it out?! Go to a medical school, the larger the better, which has an attached teaching hospital. The professors like a challenge.

Yep happened to me. Exact same scenario with woman on top. It’s not peyronies as mentioned by another poster. You have torn your suspensory ligament. You now have two options pretty much if you ever want hope of having anything that resembles a sex life:
1. Ligament repair surgery by specialist.
2. Implant.

Good luck and feel free to dm me if you need ay further info

Yeah, I've already determined myself it's very unlikely peyroines. The tearing of the lateral ligament (fundiform) makes sense in terms of causing such changes.

I''ll DM you.

Have exhausted all options in my state, even a Urology center tied with a medical school and hospital. None of them have familiarity with suspensory/fundiform ligament tears unfortunately.
