Penile damage

I have been induldging in some impulse behaviors that have me very concerned about the health of my penis and I can't stop.  I have been hitting my penis daily in the same area with a heavy wrench till the point of severely rupturing blood vessels, major inflammation, hemorrhaging and mild pain.  What long term damage if any might I be causing?  Scarring, peyronies disease, deformation, Ed or worse?  Please respond soon as I can stop this behavior.  I need help.  Thank you.

Hi there - well, first, I'm sorry for whatever emotional turmoil is causing you to do this to yourself.  You clearly are aware that this isn't "normal", nor is it good for you.

No one here can tell you the extent of damage you might have already caused, nor the extent of damage that will be caused if you continue.  Suffice to say that nothing good or healthy can come of this behavior.  Yes, you could do permanent damage to the nerves and vessels in your penis, and you could have life-long issues.

You should, as a matter of urgency, seek therapy.  Every time that you do this you are putting yourself at more risk, so seeking help should be your top priority.  If you cannot get access to immediate mental health services, I suggest visiting the emergency department or an urgent care facility.  They can evaluate the damage and help you with behavioral resources.

Best of luck.

Thanks for your response and I understand.  This has become an obsession.  My penis currently is black and blue with several indentation and deformity.  I can still at the moment get an erection and I have been hitting it while it's erect.  Direct blows on one of the major veins.  Will this cause scar tissue and or shrinkage and if so how long does it take for scarring to begin?
The questions you are asking are for medical professionals, and are urgent in nature.  Even if I know the answer, I am not going to enable you to continue this behavior by providing any answer that will allow you to justify continuing.

I'm not trying to be harsh - I'm trying to be REAL with you.  Seek help ASAP before you do permanent damage.
