Loss of sensation/feeling in penis after feeling strange pop

[moezart02]

About a 2 years ago, I was sitting in class, and my penis happened to become erect.  It was normal until I felt/heard a strange, uncomfortable, but not painful "pop" in my erect penis.  Afterwards, my erection faded away.  Later, at home, I noticed a very significant lack of sensation in my penis which seems to have gotten worse.  The "cord" that ran across the top of my erect penis has disappeared, and I can't make my penis "jump" anymore.  It feels like I lost 60% - 75% of my sensitivity, both sexually, and to hot or cold. I can usually achieve an erection, but it's often weak, and is gone the moment sexual stimulation ceases.  My penis feels almost like rubber, even less sensitive than the skin on one's arm.  Only one tiny spot on the shaft, close to the glans, is near normal.  Achieving an orgasm is  possible, but difficult and requires abormally heavy stimulation. I also lost about 90% of the feeling in my nipples, which are no longer sensitive to sexual stimulus, and barely sensitive to mormal touch.  This condition also seems to have impacted my entire body, my feet are no longer ticklish, my lips are not as sensitive as they should be. Before, a single touch on my back or neck could make me quiver, now, nothing.  It feels as if I have been "disconnected", as if my entire sexual being has been stripped away, and life seems dull. I'm worried, angry, embarrased, and afraid, and I don't know where else to turn. Because of this, I have avoided sex and am still a virgin. What's wrong with me? Is this permanant? Please help.

could be a pudendal issue.

so, did you consult the urologist and what happened?

I had a vasectomy several years ago and havent had the same sensations since.

I agree with setting up an appointment with a Urologist. That would be your first step, then if necessary you could always get referred to a Neurologist if necessary. Good Luck.

btw, I have also experienced problems with lack of sensation and totally understand where you're coming from. Hang in there.

Correction: age says 2, I'm actually 22. Sorry about that.

I think you should consult a urologist, since one of the things they specialize in is w/the nerve sensations of the genitals.  Good Luck!
