Why does the penis hurt?

The penis is a very important reproductive organ and sexual organ for men. Once this part hurts, it will make men very nervous. Penile pain can be divided into two situations. One is simple pain, and the other is pain during sexual intercourse. The pain is different in different situations and the reasons are different. So, why does the penis hurt? Let's take a look at the causes of penis pain.

Penile pain mainly refers to pain on the surface or inside of the penis. Some men will feel penile pain after their first sexual intercourse. Don't be afraid. This may be because the penis is filled with a lot of blood after erection and the blood return function is relatively weak, causing short-term swelling and pain in the penis after sexual intercourse. Generally, it will disappear after 1 to 3 hours. If you have sex multiple times on the first night of marriage, this situation will also occur. You can control the frequency of sexual intercourse appropriately in the future.

There are many reasons that can cause penile pain, but the main reason is smegma. Therefore, smegma should be treated in time. Long foreskin is very easy to harbor dirt, especially the foreskin can secrete a kind of smelly white secretion, which is smegma. Smegma can stimulate the glans penis for a long time, especially the coronal groove, which can easily cause balanitis and glansitis. It is also possible that the foreskin is too long or the infection caused by phimosis. Long-term inflammation is not treated, which can easily cause penile pain.

Commonly, there are several types of pain symptoms, such as glans penis pain during sexual intercourse or groin cramps during ejaculation, stinging pain in the foreskin, soreness in the perineum and lumbosacral region after ejaculation, and burning pain in the urethra when urinating after ejaculation.

Pain caused by penis infection can be treated with antibiotics or antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs. If the pain is caused by irritation, the symptoms can be alleviated by getting enough rest.

Normally, the penis should not be painful. Once pain occurs, it should be considered pathological and should be treated in hospital. Simply restricting sexual life is inappropriate. Penile pain during sex usually considers the following situations:

1. Insufficient lubrication. If foreplay is not sufficient, and the penis is forcibly inserted into the female vagina before it is fully lubricated, it is easy to cause friction pain when the penis is twitching, and it may even cause foreskin tearing, which will also make the woman uncomfortable. Durex lubricant can be used to enhance sensitivity, increase interest, or provide a supplement for natural lubricants.

2. The frenulum is too short. The frenulum is the skin connecting the foreskin and the glans penis, located at the urethral opening below the glans penis. When the penis is erect, if the frenulum is too short, it will pull the glans penis and cause the penis to bend. Excessive pulling will cause pain.

3. Foreskin is too long. For men with foreskin that is too long, if the foreskin opening is narrow, when the penis is erect, the enlarged penis body or glans will be compressed due to the narrow foreskin opening, causing pain. If it cannot be restored in time, severe foreskin edema or even ischemic necrosis may occur, requiring emergency surgical release.

4. Penile induration. Penile induration is a connective tissue proliferative disease that occurs between the two layers of fascia of the corpus cavernosum of the penis. It is more common in middle-aged men. One or several string-like or oval-shaped indurations can be felt on the back or root of the penis. The small ones are as big as mung beans and the large ones are as big as peanuts. There are no discomfort symptoms when the penis is relaxed, but there is local swelling and pain when it is erect.
