Extractions: Priapism What Is It? Symptoms Diagnosis Expected Duration ... Additional Info What Is It? Priapism is an abnormally prolonged, often painful erection. Usually, this erection is not caused by sexual desire or stimulation, and is not relieved by orgasm. Priapism may start after prolonged sexual activity, although this is not believed to cause priapism by itself. Most men seek medical attention within hours to days, but a few people may have a partial erection that persists for weeks.

Much debate has taken place as to the meaning of 'persistent erection', but the current view is that the erection needs to be present for six hours. In practice, the usual recommendation is to seek medical help for a painful erection persisting for more than four hours. A normal erection results from relaxation of the muscles within the penis and an increase in arterial blood flow to the penis. The resulting swelling of the muscles compresses the penile veins, thus trapping blood within the penis. After ejaculation, the associated adrenaline surge constricts the arteries and relaxes the pressure on the veins, which leads to loss of erection (detumescence). Priapism may be spontaneous or caused by medical treatment (iatrogenic). Some 35 per cent of cases are idiopathic (unknown cause) and 21 per cent are associated with drug therapy or alcohol abuse. Trauma accounts for 21 per cent and blood disorders 8 per cent. Medically, the important issue is whether the condition is associated with high blood flow when there is little risk of tissue damage, or low blood flow when the risk of damage is higher.

Extractions: Definition Priapism is a rare condition that causes a persistent, and often painful, penile erection. Description Priapism is drug induced, injury related, or caused by disease, not sexual desire. As in a normal erection, the penis fills with blood and becomes erect. However, unlike a normal erection that dissipates after sexual activity ends, the persistent erection caused by priapism is maintained because the blood in the penile shaft does not drain. The shaft remains hard, while the tip of the penis is soft. If it is not relieved promptly, priapism can lead to permanent scarring of the penis and inability to have a normal erection. Causes and symptoms Priapism is caused by leukemia, sickle cell disease , or spinal cord injury . It has also been associated as a rare side effect to trazodone (Desyrel), a drug prescribed to treat depression. An overdose of self-injected chemicals to counteract impotence has also been responsible for priapism. The chemicals are directly injected into the penis, and at least a quarter of all men who have used this method of treatment for over three months develop priapism. Diagnosis A physical examination is needed to diagnose priapism. Further testing, including nuclear scanning or Doppler ultrasound, will diagnose the underlying cause of the condition.

Extractions: [Inline ads not enabled] I wrote this 2 years ago now I still have more to say and learn about this subject. Priapism is the thing i dread most about having Sickle Cell Anemia. I want to learn the best way to deal with it and overcome my fears. not too many patients of sickle cell speak of this in public. the male friends of mines who suffer from this, thank me for speaking out. But, i'm only one voice and wish we all had an understanding of everything relating to sickle cell disease, even the ones we are ashamed of. I will post stuff i learn about Priapism here... when i find anything NEW... What is Priapism anyway? Priapism is a prolonged and painful erection that can last from several hours up to a few days . The priapismic erection is NOT associated with sexual thoughts or sexual activity. What happens is that blood flows into the penis, but is unable to drain as it would in a normally flaccid penis. Considering that the penis provides little room for blood to circulate, the blood becomes stagnant after a while, acidifies, and loses oxygen. Without oxygen, the red blood cells become stiff and even less able to squeeze their way out of the penis. Thats the normal definition for someone without Sickle Cell Disease. But with sickle cell you can imagine our cells tend to sickle at their own leisure. All the sickled cells need is a place confined enough to get stuck and clog up. Priapism can scar the penis if not treated early enough, and this can lead to impotence. Knowing this potential side effect of this condition may help a male defier seek the help he needs despite the shame and embarrassment. Most of us are raised into a form of Christian morality that views anything sexual as shameful and sinful. There are dangers with this way of thinking. Here is a health condition that involves a painful erected sex organ, and some people are just not prepared to for this, due to their personal attitudes towards human sexuality. Some parents may make decisions towards self-treating their son's Priapism which can be very harmful... ending up scarring a child for life.

Extractions: MANAGEMENT AND THERAPY OF SICKLE CELL DISEASE NIH Publication No. 95-2117, Revised December 1995 (Third Edition) National Institutes of Health, National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Chapter 19-Priapism Priapism is a persistent, painful penile erection. Three clinical categories are discussed in this chapter, including recurrent acute priapism, acute prolonged priapism, and chronic priapism. RECURRENT ACUTE PRIAPISM This is the most common form of priapism in which the patient gets short attacks that subside spontaneously. The patient usually copes with this problem and may not seek medical advice. The natural history is variable. Most patients will continue to get attacks throughout their lives and will maintain some degree of potency. Others will eventually become impotent. A small group will develop an acute attack that will not subside without active and aggressive treatment in a timely fashion. ACUTE PROLONGED PRIAPISM The painful erection that does not subside after several hours is an emergency and should be treated aggressively. If untreated, the attack will last for several weeks, resulting in total impotence. Even with aggressive treatment, preservation of potency may be compromised. The presenting features are persistent erection, severe pain, and tenderness of the penile shaft. Radionuclear penile scan may show a very low flow, and penile blood gas may have a pO2 of less than 5. CHRONIC PRIAPISM This is a rare form of presentation that may follow an acute episode or may arise de novo. The penis is semierect and there is no pain. Clinically, this results in a progressive increase in the size of the penis, and penile scan shows good blood flow. Penile ultrasound shows dilated deep dorsal arteries in both corporeal bodies, and the patient has difficulty in getting a complete erection. Occasionally these patients may develop an acute episode. Suddenly for no apparent reason the penis becomes rigid and painful. These episodes may affect only a part of the penile shaft.

Extractions: Priapism is a painful and potentially harmful medical condition in which the erect penis erection ) does not return to its flaccid state (in the absence of both physical and psychological stimulation) because blood cannot exit the tissues or vessels of the penis . Potential complications include ischemia (swelling), clotting of the blood retained in the penis, and damage to the blood vessels of the penis which may result in an impaired erectile function or impotence. In extreme cases, the condition may result in gangrene , which may necessitate amputation . Treatment is usually hydraulic, withdrawing a part of the trapped blood. This is a medical emergency (urological) and needs proper treatment by a qualified medical practitioner. Priapism is not associated with sex or sexual thoughts. Priapism can be caused by certain drugs , such as anti-depressants and Viagra , and can be a possible sign of a spinal injury . Conditions that thicken the blood , or affect the red blood cells , such as leukaemia and sickle-cell anaemia can cause this problem.

Priapism is the occurrence of any persistent erection for more than four hours duration in the absence of sexual stimulation. Priapism is named after Priapus, the Greek god of fertility, and the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. He was apparently an ugly, satyrlike man with enormous genitalia. He was the god of gardens, bees, goats and sheep. According to the story, Priapus had a huge tongue, a fat belly, and his penis was so large that he was restricted to the position of scarecrow in the fields.

Extractions: Priapism Priapism is a prolonged, painful penile erection that occurs when blood in the penis is "trapped," or unable to drain. The stagnant blood causes an erection that can last from hours to days. A painful erection lasting for more than 4 hours indicates priapism. If not treated promptly, scarring and permanent inability to achieve an erection (impotence) can result. Types This rare, less painful type of priapism results from an injury to the penis or area between scrotum and anus (perineum) that prevents blood in the penis from circulating normally. It indicates a ruptured artery in the penis. There may be a lapse between the time of injury and onset of priapism. Incidence and Prevalence

Extractions: rotten Library Sex Priapism is a medical condition, a sustained and eventually painful erection that will not cease. It is not related to erotic feelings or a particularly effective stripper, but is usually the result of either a change in the blood (clotting, blood diseases) or medications (anti-impotence medicine and increased dosages). The right thing to do in this situation is get over your embarassment immediately, put on some clothes, and get over to a hospital, where they will drain the penis of the clotted blood with an injected needle. It sounds bad, but not as bad as it could be; leaving your penis in a Priaptic state will lead to permanent damage and a very good chance of continued impotence. Ironically, the condition is named after the Fertility God Priapus, likely because he is usually depicted with a stunning endowment and often erect.
