Causes of penis pain after erection

If a man's penis is erect and he experiences a bloating and pain, it will affect his sexual life and the quality of his sperm. Therefore, for men, this disease must be treated in time, because the eyelid itself is not particularly hygienic, and some men have not developed good hygiene habits. So what is the cause of bloating and pain after penis erection?

What causes pain during penis erection?

Experts say that erectile pain in men is mainly related to trauma and physiological diseases. Let's take a closer look.

1. Trauma: Although the penis is hidden and usually small in size, it is still possible to get injured. The most common is when riding on a hard object and hitting the penis. Injuries to the penis epidermis are mainly caused by insect bites. A very small number of men break their penises due to excessive movements or sudden changes in direction during sex.

2. Herpes virus infection: Some viruses often cause pain after invading the penis, the most common of which is genital herpes. After infection, the penis will experience burning, itching, and pain.

3. Prostatitis: Prostatitis often causes penile pain.

4. Non-gonococcal urethritis: Non-gonococcal urethritis is a urinary tract infection caused by Ureaplasma urealyticum, Chlamydia trachomatis and Trichomonas, which is mainly transmitted through sexual intercourse. In addition to purulent urethral discharge, patients also experience pain during urination, burning, pain and itching around the penis, etc.

5. Abnormal erection: Sometimes erection can actually cause penile pain. When blood clots form in the arteries of the erect penis, they block blood from flowing out of the penis, causing the penis to remain erect for much longer than normal, causing severe pain.

6. Peyronie's disease: Also called penile curvature, it is a progressive disease caused by scar tissue forming in the penis. The diseased tissue forms plaques on the penis. When the penis is erect, the plaques cause the penis to bend and be painful. Sometimes the plaques disappear on their own, and sometimes they must be corrected through surgery.

Experts say: Penile pain is not a normal physiological manifestation, it is likely to be caused by disease. Some diseases are contagious and may be transmitted to lovers through sexual intercourse. Therefore, it is recommended that men who have penile erection pain should go to the hospital for examination in time. Facing their own disease is the key to treatment.
