Independent UK: A man who injected his penis with cocaine saw it turn black and release a “foul-smelling” discharge.
The 35-year-old man’s case has been reported in the American Journal of Case Reports and found that he was admitted to ER with “excruciating” pain in his penis and scrotum three days after he injected the drug into his penile vein.
A doctor who was working in the Bronx, New York hospital where the man was admitted said the man’s penis was ulcerated, black, swollen and emitting a foul-smelling discharge.
The doctor added that the man had a long history of intravenous drug use and that he revealed he’d previously injected cocaine in the same vein at least twice in the two weeks prior “without any complications”.It was reported that the man refused surgery to cut away the dying skin tissue and was put on intravenous antibiotics for five days.
The man refused drug rehabilitation following an improvement in his condition and was later “lost to follow-up”, the doctor explained.
The report added: “Intravenous drug users should be counseled to seek help and should be advised to enroll in drug rehabilitation programs, as cocaine cessation is the only definitive treatment.”
The report did not clarify why the man’s penis was discoloured after he injected it with cocaine.
OOOHHH. I know why his penis was disclosed. He shot cocaine into it from a dirty needle.
I can’t imagine feeling the need or pull of drug use to the point of NEEDING to shoot that drug into my penile vein. I go to great lengths to protect my junk from ANY pain. Then again, I’m not a coke/crack addict looking for any way to coast into the great hereafter because the pain of life is just too much.
Addicts who inject need healthy veins to inject drugs and the pinis is chock full of veins but HAS to be a last resort for addicts. The Anus also includes an ASSLOAD of veins but we never hear about addicts showing up to ERs with necrotic drug ass because it’s hard to reach. So, the penis it is (the feet too) when arm veins dry up.
It’s no way to go through life, fellas, but I appreciate the courage and effort.
Don’t. Inject. Drugs. Into. Your. Penis.
