Men
have been warned to be very careful how they consume Viagra used for by
many men to help them get erection and last longer in bed.
Since
it became available back in 1998, Viagra has become one of the main
solutions for men erectile dysfunction (ED). As problems related to
Erectile dysfunction becomes more conversant and not related to just
older men, but also young men, the demand for Viagra has increased.
A
new study published in The Journal of Sexual Medicine, shows that one
in four men will experience ED at some point in their lives, according
to Dailystar. But as the rate of ED continues to rise, are men aware of
the health consequences and potential dangers of Viagra?
What
happens to the p*nis due too much use of Viagra? Dr Seth Rankin,
founder of London Doctors Clinic has revealed interesting details to
Dailystar which is very important for all men.
Is Viagra Safe?
On
the scale of many medications that people take it is very safe. So long
as you are not taking nitrates (for angina or recreation) there is very
little chance of any problems. It has been taken by many millions of
men (and a fair few curious women) and no significant health risks have
emerged as yet. Keep in mind though that the rest of your health may not
be up to the vigorous exercise that sildenafil suddenly enables you to
embark upon. For example if you have heart disease the unaccustomed
activity may be the last straw.
What happens to your body if you take too much Viagra?
Assuming
you’re healthy enough to take a recommended dose, overdosing on Viagra
isn’t pretty. Everything that may go wrong is much more likely to go
wrong if you take too much.
If you take too much Viagra you may get priapism which is a persistent and painful erection that often lasts for hours on end.
Priapism
is a medical emergency, meaning you should rush to the hospital if it
happens, because if it isn’t treated within 24 hours you may damage your
schlong for life.
A prolonged erection can permanently damage the penile tissues making it difficult to get hard in the future.
But
since Viagra can lower your blood pressure it can lead to heart
problems, like an irregular heartbeat and worse yet a heart attack.
So, really, less is more in this case.
Here are the health consequences of taking Viagra?
Most
men get a bit of facial flushing and nasal congestion and many get a
headache as well. These are usually mild and well tolerated compared
with the problem for which you are taking it for in the first place.
It can also make you a bit lightheaded as it can drop your blood pressure a bit.
Sometimes
the erection one gets can be too much for too long. It can occasionally
cause an erection that doesn’t go away and any erection that lasts
longer than 4 hours can cause serious problems by blocking off the
penis’ own blood supply – which can result in having die and drop off.
So
see a doctor urgently if it won’t go down. This is more likely to
happen in overdose so don’t take more than the recommended dose.
What do you recommend for men with erectile dysfunction?
Firstly
stop taking any drugs or drinking too much alcohol. Then stop smoking
and get a bit fitter. Then talk to a doctor just to check if there may
be something else going on with your health.
Sometimes,
it can be a lifestyle issue, sometimes a confidence issue. Other times,
it can be a sign of heart disease, diabetes, low testosterone, or many
other things, so it’s worth checking.
Of
course most of the time there won’t be anything physical but it is
definitely best to be sure. Then if there is nothing to be found
sildenafil (or its newer siblings) can work like magic. Probably the
commonest way it helps is to restore a bit of confidence.
As
any man knows sex is as much in the mind as in the body and having to
worry about whether your member is up for the outing is only going to
make it shy. Sildenafil can help take your mind of the physical aspects.
Usually a few doses will get you back to normal.
If there is a physical reason it can work incredibly well too. Sildenafil and its cousins have transformed the lives of coupl
