For most men, life comes with a certain number of aches and pains. Most of them are minor and more of an annoyance than anything else, but some conditions, such as a painful male organ, can be downright distressing and may even require medical intervention. Some common and lesser-known sources of manhood pain are described here, along with some tips for ongoing male organ care. Causes of a painful male organ More things can go wrong with a male organ than most men are aware. Unfortunately, many of the symptoms overlap, so it the actual underlying condition may not be readily obvious. While some sore male organ issues may clear up on their own in a short time, other may require medical intervention. A good rule of thumb when it comes to a sore male organ is, when it doubt, get it checked out. More serious conditions of the male organ exist and can cause sterility or even require surgery, if not treated in a timely manner. A quick trip to the doctor can give a man peace of mind that everything is A-OK. Some top causes of male organ pain include: 1. Acne - yes, the male organ can be inflicted with acne, much like the face; 2. Infected hair follicles or ingrown hairs; 3. Bladder infection, bladder stones, kidney stones or kidney infection; 4. Urinary tract infection; 5. Urethritis - inflammation of the urethra; 6. Epididymitis - infection of the epididymis; 7. Prostatitis - infection of the prostate gland; 8. Phimosis - pain caused when the sheath doesn’t retract over the head of the male organ; 9. Paraphimosis - pain caused when the sheath is stuck in a retracted position; 10. Priapism - pain caused by tumescence that lasts more than 4 hours in the absence of physical or psychological stimulation; 11. Peyronie’s disease - painful curvature of the male organ caused by the buildup of scar tissue and plaque; 12. Balanitis - infection located under the sheath; 13. Partner-transmitted infections will often present with sores, bumps or bleeding; 14. Prostate cancer. When does a man need to go to the doctor? It is always the best policy to see the doctor for a sore male organ that lasts more than a day or two, or for any condition that seems out of the ordinary. For example, a red bump on the male organ may be a pimple or an ingrown hair and could go away in 3 or 4 days, or the bump could be caused by HSV and need ongoing treatment. If a man has reason to suspect his male organ pain is caused by something serious - such as finding a mass or lump with it, or having recently engaged in unprotected relations - an appointment should be made immediately. Any recent trauma to the area such a sports injury, serious intimate mishap or a persistent hard member that lasts for more than 4 hours warrants a trip to the ER. Additionally, if there is bleeding, oozing, or discharge, or the sore male organ brings a fever or nausea with it, going to the doctor is necessary. Tips to keep the male organ healthy Any man who has experienced a seriously sore member will be willing to take the extra steps to avoid a relapse. Here are a few tips that will help keep the male organ doctor away: Use a barrier - Barrier protection is up to 99% effective in stopping the transmission of diseases when used properly. Not dealing with an infection for years to come is reason enough to wrap it up! Practice good hygiene - There are several conditions of the male organ caused by bacteria making its way up the urethra, which can later develop into a painful infection. Keeping the male organ clean and free of bacteria can reduce the chance of infection. Good hygiene goes doubly for men who are uncut, as the sheath really traps bacteria and contributes to the dreaded smegma. Self-inspect - A monthly self-inspection of the entire region can help catch problems before they become a serious issue. Self-inspection can spot a tell-tale infection right at the start and find lumps that could indicate cancer of the reproductive glands. Nourish - Just like the rest of the body, the male organ performs better and stays healthy with a good dose of vitamins. Eating healthfully is one way to nourish the male organ; using a daily male organ vitamin formula (most professionals recommend Man 1 Man Oil) is another. A daily vitamin formula delivers the specific vitamins and minerals the male organ benefits most from directly to the male organ skin, where they can be efficiently absorbed. Select one containing vitamin A for the added bonus of fighting pesky male organ bacteria.
