Oh, That’s So Banana (Men’s Health)

Okay ladies, flow with me on this beautiful scenario, you are all hugged up with your handsome Boo, you two are beyond the kisses stage, clothes are slowly lessening. You are wet and he assures you he will be, once he places a prophylactic on, you two are ready for that special moment.
 
He has an erection you have been scoping through his jeans for a while, the mood is set, then, you look down and his erected penis has a curvature to it. Your eyebrows rise at the difference regarding another man’s arousal. Should you ask him is that normal, if you do, will he have an explanation?  
 
You as a woman are assuming you have struck a gold mine. Your first thought, I’ve seen one in a male magazine, now you are wondering is all those curved nine inches of firm throbbing lust going to please you, tease you, or is he about to hurt you.

Your sexual partner is beating on his chest you admire his physique, and his curvature penis.
 
Freeze… hey, I had to pull your mentality in some way, and now that I have the attention of your eyes, the space of your mind, and the cause of your heart.
 
Let’s rewind back here, this medical journal is not to pamper your libido, but bring to awareness that has gripped the male population, and I thought I would bring this medical condition on behalf of Men’s Health, and some other medical condition you should be aware of that may or may not affect his bedroom prowess.
 
Let’s briefly explore gentlemen some of these medical diagnosed elements, so as time progresses, and if you are referred to an Urologist and these medical words appear if you have some form of My Chart (A Medical Office/Hospital where you can view your medical files in general; lab results, make doctor’s appointments, or refills on mediations).
 
May these inscribe medical words give you some overall power in reclaiming your health for the year 2024.
 
Hello everyone and to all my readers who tune in or read my medical journals. And give you some keen awareness of a medical condition discussed here today, I would suggest for you to research further, and the presented information is not to treat or cure but utilized to take into consideration.
 
A man, mmm.. God, I love you all from the Crown upon your head, to the soles of your wandering or feet, but fellows, you need to know about your body like it is your Bible, when to treat simple medical conditions at home, call your physician, make an in person/televisit appointment, or go straight to emergency room (ER).
 
The number one complaint any man who is sexually active dreads the two words uttered by his Urologist that he has been properly diagnosed with, Erectile Dysfunction (ED). If you are a male and younger you may not be unfamiliar with this term, however Erectile Dysfunction refers to the inability for a male to achieve or conserve an erection to complete his pleasuring congest for sexual activity.
 
Some specialists have contributed these diagnoses as underlined vascular related issues, or some Urologist states it could be in correlation with some type of hormonal imbalances, or most, not all may be due to psychological factors.
 
This other medical condition that may affect a man’s performance and I really think needs to be discussed and that is the medical condition Priapism.
 
A little history of Priapism is a prolonged and at times it can be a painful erection, that persists for more than four hours.  
At this point I know some of you men who may be reading this, and thinking if so, then you are King of your Jungle, primarily, if you do not take any medication and your erection is lasting beyond four hours, or you beating on his chest, calm down, be advised this is not consider a normal erection.  
 
If such, Priapism is a male medical condition, which will need prompt medical attention to prevent potential necrosis to the penile surrounding tissues.
 
Okay men and ladies this is a word you may want to keep in your selective memory the next time you become intimate with a new sexual partner, and you are at the reveling naked phase, and you see that his erection is curvature then you will know this handsome one unfortunately suffers from Peyronie’s Disease.
 
To be more politically correct. This urologic condition details the development of a hard lump, what is medically termed as plague within the penis, this is what causes a man’s penis to have that I call and never any disrespect to your Kings, but a banana appearance not the effect, that is the closet image I can compare this condition too, and I always wanted to know does the insertion hurt a woman.
 
Not to sound bias, as being in the medical profession, therefore, forgive me for being so frank, I personally have never had any intimate relations with anyone who suffers from this medical condition, but I have heard conflicting stories, some women who responded to my Blog, stated there is no difference, other women stated a little discomfort, but it did not affect the ‘outcome’   they were still getting satisfied.
 
Gentlemen, if you have any discomfort in the groin area or sometimes, swollen lymph nodes, there is usually an infection lurking somewhere, I say that if it accompanies any inflammation, if there was not any injury, then I think you may want to see a physician/urologist for this next medical condition that could occur.  
 
Balanitis is an inflammation of the glans (head) of the penis. This occur men when the foreskin is also inflamed, it’s called balanoposthitis.
 
This is a condition that men are reported to seek medical care from their physician or a Urologist, and those two conditions a man should understand is Phimosis and Paraphimosis: it refers to when some men may have tight foreskin that cannot retract over their glans.
 
Then there is Paraphimosis  
 
Paraphimosis occurs when a man’s foreskin gets stuck behind the glans.  
Both conditions may require medical intervention.
 
Gentlemen, please make sure you are getting your Prostate Exam, I know… I hear your moaning, but it is a preventive measure, and also please with that rectal exam, make sure you get a PSA(Prostate Specific Antigen).
 
In England, the PSA test is available free to any well man aged 50 and over who requests it, this is what was advised to me during my blog. If anyone lives in England, who can corroborate this or refute this, talk to me.
 
Instead of a national screening program, the UK offers an Informed Choice Program called Prostate Cancer Risk Management. Under this program, healthy men aged 50 or over can request a PSA test.
 
This is what I gathered off the internet, I do not know if this program is still in existence.
 
If you have been diagnosed with any form of Cancer, please make sure you see your Oncologist (Is a Specialist who the studies of the cause study, treatment, diagnosis, and prevention of cancer) or a Hematologist (Is a Specialist who the studies of the cause, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases related to blood.
 
Springtime will be here gentlemen and us ladies will be looking at your virility, make sure you take care of your skin, if you are a bearded man... oh la.. la, please make sure you keep those facial strands smooth and groomed to our soft touches, and to our inner thighs.  
 
I love the Winter Heman look, however, when the season changes over I am sure you shave more, so invest in a great man’s grooming skin care line and if user a barbershop, make sure it is clean and the shaving/cutting tools are clean to keep down on razor bumps, which can lead to inflamed hair follicles. And it is not so appealing to see a handsome man with those small abscesses to the back of his haircut, therefore, so practice awareness.
