Cowboy kenny 50799 Report post Posted January 22, 2012 http://news.yahoo.com/penis-tattoo-blamed-permanent-erection-152604109.html Penis Tattoo Blamed for Permanent Erection A 21-year-old Iranian man now suffers from a permanent erection after getting a tattoo on his penis, according to a report of his case. The man had the Persian phrase "borow be salaamat," meaning "good luck with your journeys," tattooed on his penis. He also had the letter M, the first letter of his girlfriend's first name, tattooed on it, according to the report. His condition is medically known as priapism, which is said to occur when an erection is not caused by sexual stimulation and lasts longer than four hours. The condition most commonly happens in boys ages 5 to 10, and men ages 20 to 50. The case report, published Jan. 3 in the Journal of Sexual Medicine, notes that this is the first case of tattooing causing the condition. Tattoo troubles A tattoo artist created the design with a handheld needle, according to the report. After the tattooing, the man bled from tissue deep within the penis, and experienced pain for eight days. His penis then became semi-erect, 24 hours per day. When he visited the doctors, his erection had been ongoing for almost three months. The doctors conducted numerous tests to rule out other possible causes, such as a urinary tract infection, leukemia or syphilis. They determined that the tattooing was probably to blame, and suggested the needle may have been inserted too deeply. The doctors determined that blood was still flowing in and out of the man's penis, so they diagnosed him with a nonischemic priapism. This occurs when blood enters the penis faster than it can go out, leaving the penis permanently erect, due to the increased pressure. An ischemic priapism, in which blood is no longer flowing, is a much more serious condition, and can cause severe damage if not treated. Treatments Doctors recommended that the man undergo a shunt procedure to drain excess blood. But the shunt did not work. According to the report, the man did not wish to undergo additional surgery because he can still have sexual intercourse and he is not in pain. He also does not regret the tattoo, the report said. The doctors do not recommend penile tattooing, according to the study. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The General 11309 Report post Posted January 22, 2012 You have to wonder why anyone would want to have a tattoo placed on such a sensitive area, it must have been extremely painful getting the tattoo. Ouch. Now the permanent erection concept might not be so bad, but you better wear baggy pants all the time....lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bethany Westbrooke 7532 Report post Posted January 23, 2012 So much for getting my name tattooed on someone's junk... There was this guy who was really in love with his girl friend Wendy, so he decided to tattoo her name on her penis. When the penis was erect it said Wendy, when it wasn't erect it only spelled the letters W and Y. so after this guy and his girlfriend got married they went on their honeymoon to Jamaica. One day in a restaurant the guy went to the bathroom and saw a black guy peeing next to him and on his penis he saw the letters W and Y. so he asked " Hey, do you also have a girlfriend named Wendy?, and the black guy said "No, my tattoo says, 'Welcome to Jamaica, have a nice day'" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
