The lower body is injured

For both men and women, it is important to protect the lower body from injury. In particular, the male penis is outside the body and is more susceptible to external collisions and injuries. If the lower body is injured, it is necessary to seek medical attention and treatment in time. Different injuries should be treated differently. If it is scrotal bleeding, it will affect future fertility; if it is a penis injury, it will also affect fertility and sexual life, so timely medical treatment is the best choice.

Obvious signs of male genital trauma

Manifestation 1: Scrotal trauma

After the scrotum is injured, it will bleed and swell, the skin of the scrotum will become purple or dark, and the pain will be severe.

Manifestation 2: Penile trauma

The severity of penile trauma varies depending on the direction and magnitude of the external force. The main common manifestations include pain, swelling, hematuria, and urination disorders.

3. Testicular trauma

After testicular trauma, there is severe pain that radiates to the lower abdomen, lumbar region, and even upper abdomen. Severe cases may cause shock. There is a large hematoma in the scrotum, and the scrotal wall is bruised and purple.

How to scientifically treat male genital injuries?

There are many types of male genital trauma, ranging from the lightest abrasions and contusions to skin avulsions, penile strangulations, and even severe injuries such as penile severance and penile dislocation. Penile skin abrasions are easy to identify and treat, just apply some red mercury or gentian violet to the abrasions. Penile contusions are not serious either, and are mostly caused by direct external forces, such as blows and collisions. They manifest as local swelling and pain in the penis, and may have subcutaneous hematomas or hematuria under the microscope. Generally, only a few days of rest are required, and drugs such as furantidine or norfloxacin are given to prevent infection.

Male genital skin avulsion or penile amputation is a very clear injury. The key points of treatment are:

(1) If the skin graft is not completely separated, it must be carefully preserved and not to be hasty in tearing off the skin graft or penis completely;

(2) The severed skin and penis should be kept clean and sent to the hospital as soon as possible along with the patient. Do not rush to stop bleeding, bandage, and rescue while forgetting the severed part or trampling on and damaging it, thus losing the chance of replantation.

When the penis is erect, a large amount of blood will be injected into the corpus cavernosum of the penis, and the volume of the corpus cavernosum will increase suddenly, making the tunica albuginea wrapped outside it thinner and in a highly tense state, and the brittleness will also increase significantly, just like a small balloon that is blown up. At this time, if it is suddenly affected by external force, the expansion and elasticity of the tunica albuginea will exceed the limit, and it is easy for one side of the tunica albuginea and corpus cavernosum to rupture. Sometimes, a "snap" sound can be heard when it breaks, and at the same time, severe pain and tearing sensation can be felt, and then the penis will become soft, gradually swollen, and cyanotic. The penis will bend to the healthy side, and in severe cases, the urethra will be torn, causing urethral bleeding.

First aid measures for male genital fracture:

1. Once the frenulum of the penis is torn and the tunica albuginea ruptures, sexual intercourse should be interrupted immediately to prevent the penis from becoming erect again.

2. Then, rinse immediately with mineral water and use a clean towel to apply pressure to stop bleeding and avoid infection.

3. If the tunica albuginea of ​​the penis ruptures, the situation is more serious. Some people may also have blood oozing out. You should apply pressure to stop the bleeding in time, or simply bandage it with a bandage and hold it with a little force to apply pressure.

4. Take ice cubes and put them into a plastic bag for cold compress as soon as possible.

5. Then, send the patient to the hospital for treatment immediately, preferably in a supine position.
