Another erectile disorder, priapism, is the continual and pathological erection of the penis. It is usually caused by nonsexual factors such as spinal cord disease, leukemia or sickle cell disease, and, according to some reports, with the use of cocaine. Sometimes it happens for no known reason.
In cases of priapism, the increased blood flow that causes an erection is unable to drain from the penis in the usual way because the release mechanism has been broken down by the disease or affected by drugs or other unknown factors. It is extremely painful and may require surgery if the problem does not respond to medical treatment. Certain non-medical circumstances, such as painful stimulation of the penis, or disturbed emotional states such as fear, anger, guilt, anxiety, or shame can cause a man to lose his erection or prevent him from getting an erection in the first place. Emotional difficulties and the anticipation and worry about possibly losing an erection are common causes of a man's erectile difficulties.

I don't think so. A erection for over 5 hours becomes extremely painful where walking is a problem. If you had one for six hours you would be rolling around on the ground crying, as I know because I've been there.

In all seriousness, if its really been more than 4 hours (and your not in a sexually stimulating environment) you should at the very least call a doctor at one of those 24 hour clinics. I suspect they are going to tell you to make an embarassing trip to the emergency room - it is probably a serious problem. It could be heart-related, but is likely a reaction to something that you took, either way you don't want to take a chance with you johnson; so talk to a doctor.

Hi there,
A good site with lots of info and good natural remedies about impotence is http://erectiledysfunction.toptips.org
Erectile dysfunction is very common and becomes more common when you get older. An america survey showed that at least one in five men over the age of 40 years has erectile problems and about one in ten men are completely unable to have erections. With each increasing decade of age, the chance of having erectile problems increases.
I hope it helps

Either your full of **** or you have had recent trauma that has damaged your spinal cord, or taken a penile enhancement medication that is having adverse effects.
