Man Undergoes Emergency Surgery for 21-Day Erection:
Surgeons saved a man’s life after a three week erection nearly killed him, The Sun reported Wednesday.The businessman, 55, was forced to undergo an emergency operation after his problem persisted for a staggering 21 days.
Doctors at a hospital in Kolkata, India, eventually performed the surgery to put the middle-aged man out of his misery.
But although the hour-long operation was successful, it rendered the man impotent.
Doctor Avishek Mukherjee said: “It was very late when the man sought treatment.
“The treatment has to be sought within six hours, otherwise it could even lead to death, besides the degeneration of the penis.”
