Positions that can fracture the penis

Penile fracture or trauma can easily occur during sexual intercourse. Find out which positions can put your penis at risk. 

The word "fracture" is just a manner of speaking, as the penis has no bone. But yes, it can "break" during sexual intercourse due to an impact against the partner's body (in that wild sex), causing the member to bend. The cavities are ruptured, causing internal bleeding and bruising - with a high possibility of generating scars. Even though it's hard to happen, we need to take some care. 

Find out below what are the sexual positions that can put your penis at risk:

Cowgirl

The famous cowgirl position is definitely the most dangerous for men. A study carried out at the State University of Campinas (Unicamp) revealed that more than half of penile fractures occur with the woman on top. During riding, all the weight is concentrated on the penis, just one slip to bend the member. So stay tuned!


Doggy

The second most dangerous is the four. During the research, it was recorded that 29% of injuries were caused in this position. The reason for the risk is still unknown, but the ideal is to practice with more care and less intensity.


Missionary

In the position with the partner on top of the woman, the risk of penile fracture drops to 21.4%, being one of the safest. In this case, as the man is in full control of the movements, during the first sign of pain it is much easier to interrupt the movement and penetration.


Handjob

Despite there being no penetration, as in previous positions, 14.3% of penile trauma occurred during masturbation. In this case, the risk is due to the intensity of the movements when manipulating the limb. That is, treat your best friend with affection!


How do I know if I fractured my penis?

The first sign of penile fracture is the sound generated by the rupture, pain, swelling, hematoma, sagging, edema and bleeding. If there is any trauma during sex, first put ice on the affected area and go to the emergency room to seek help.


I think I fractured my penis, now what?

Take it easy! The treatment is simple and there is no need for a cast, all you need is time and rest. If it was mild, the injured membrane heals on its own, but if you notice that it was more serious, see a doctor. The problem is solved with a surgery to repair the tunica albuginea and recovery takes around two weeks (the patient cannot have sexual intercourse during this period).


It is very important to emphasize that when the fracture is not treated correctly, it can cause Peyronie's Disease and erectile dysfunction. In addition to sequels such as pes thinning, bending and limb reduction.
