Acrobatic Sex

There are sounds you never want to hear while having sex.

Snap Crackle And Pop

 


There are some sounds you never want to hear while having sex.
Snap, crackle and pop accompanied by pain in the penis is a sure indicator that you may have fractured the penis. Admittedly the penis is not a bone but with vigorous sex, especially accompanied by blunt trauma the connective tissue surrounding the penis can rupture. The penis can accidentally hit the pelvic bone during vigorous sex tearing the connective tissue. As a result of sex in the shower the partner can slip resulting in a downward force on the erect penis fracturing the penis as well. A fractured penis requires immediate medical attention to preserve sexual function and avoid injury to the urethra (the tube through which urine flows). The mechanism by which the penis ruptures can be so embarrassing that it delays medical treatment. Unfortunately with alcohol or illicit drugs couples may not realize that acrobatic sex can be more risky than previously realized. Handle your penis with kid gloves.
