Wound to left thigh possibly cause nerve damage to other areas?!


Question: Wound to left thigh possibly cause nerve damage to other areas.?
Ok so it sucks writing about this, but ..well it just sucks in general. Alright I was wounded in Iraq. I had shrapnel tear through my left thigh. One large piece hit upper thigh left side about where my IT band is then tore down about 4 inches. It was cut out while overseas The doc had calculated the procedure wrong looking at the X-rays and had to make the incision longer and much deeper than he expected. He cut down through 2 layers of muscle to pull out the pieces of shrapnel. Now I have scar tissue forming there and between the entry and exit holes is a spot where the nerves are weakend. 2 more pieces of shrapnel hit the top of my quad not penetrating the muscle but hitting it and sliding down about an inch from the entry point I don't seem to have any nerve damge there. 1 piece of shrapnel worked it's way through the skin and i pulled it out a couple months later. I still have a small piece in there measuring only a couple mm.


Ok I just wanted to give you a little bit about the injury. I know the nerve damage from the large shrapnel is to be expected, but that's not what im wondering about. I want to know if those wounds could have hurt any nevers that run through my penis.? Wow does it sucks typing this... but you don't know me So it's all good. Anywho so on to the sex life.... before i deployed I was a champ you 30+mins on a good day. When I returned from the deployment after the injuries I was a " 1 pump chump" as some people so nicely refer to it. Things have improved but that still lasted for 3-4 months. But I'm not doing to much better right now... a couple mins. TOPS.

So please don't respond with...wow that sucks...,dude...I know. Not only does it suck for me but for my girlfriend. Whom through it all has been a trooper I guess. lol

Well Alright I think I'm done embarassing myself. Later

Just wondering if there are nerves running through my leg that could be causing this problem.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
No significant nerve in that area either lie there or might result in such an effect you ascribe to your thigh injury. As far as the time 30plus and one plus are concerned it is related to your long gaps [once a week act], pain and discomfort. If one episode of such a performance occurs it leads to another as you are yourself programming this into your mind. Looks like a Self-fulfilling prophecy when you strongly feel that "this will happen' and this happens anyway. Change your thoughts and rebuild confidence.Health Question & Answer
