Pain Medication Could Produce Some Male Organ Pain

• Its common knowledge that any medication may
  have some unintended side effects, depending on
  many factors dosage, frequency of use,
  metabolism variation, age, etc. Some people use
  the medication gabapentin, which is prescribed
  for a number of purposes, including diabetic
  nerve pain and epilepsy. Ironically, in some
  cases, a man using this pain medication may
  actually experience male organ pain - and there
  can be other issues which affect his member
  health as well.

Uses

• As mentioned, gabapentin is often used in
  treating nerve damage and the resulting pain or
  numbness. This is often an issue in diabetes, but
  can also be due to other causes of neural damage.
  The medication is an anticonvulsant, meaning that
  is can be helpful in managing epilepsy. Doctors
  also prescribe it for other conditions, such as
  restless leg syndrome, hot flashes, migraines and
  priapism.

Male organ pain

• Some men who have used gabapentin reported
  that it can produce male organ pain, in some
  cases fairly significant. The pain can range from
  a persistent low level throb to sensations of
  sharp, burning pain. At least one man has
  reported that the burning sensation requires the
  application of a cloth soaked in cold water
  several times a day.
•  
• Exactly why the gabapentin is sometimes
  associated with male organ pain is unclear. The
  good news is that, in addition to being a fairly
  rare side effect, it tends to resolve naturally
  within about a month. Men who do experience this
  side effect from taking the medication should
  consult with their doctors to determine if a
  different medication should be prescribed or if
  there are additional medications that may be
  useful in treating the male organ pain. For
  example, some doctors find that a topical numbing
  crème can effectively reduce the pain.

Other male organ issues

• There are several other manhood-based issues
  beyond pain that are sometimes associated with
  use of gabapentin. Earlier, it was mentioned that
  gabapentin is sometimes prescribed in cases of
  priapism. Priapism is a situation in which the
  member becomes engorged for an abnormally long
  time typically four hours or more and cannot
  return to its flaccid state. This can lead to
  long-term nerve and tissue damage in the member.
•  
• Gabapentin is used in treating priapism
  because it has a de-tumescent capability. But
  that means that some men not suffering from
  priapism may find that it creates tumescence
  dysfunction situation. This may prevent them from
  becoming firm or may decrease the firmness of
  their tumescence.

• In other cases, men on this medication report
  they are able to achieve tumescence but that they
  have difficulty achieving seed release.
• Finally, some men report that their manhood
  takes on a swollen appearance at times while
  using gabapentin. This may also be accompanied by
  another form of male organ pain, tenderness in
  the swollen area.

Alternatives

• Men who feel that gabapentin is causing
  unwanted side effects should discuss alternative
  possible medications with their physician. Many
  medications have side effects, and often
  medications that treat the same issue may have
  similar side effects however, it may be
  worthwhile to explore different options to find
  the one which works best, as every individual
  reacts differently to any medication.

• Male organ pain, whether from a medication or
  another source, is not something men enjoy
  dealing with. For everyday male organ pain,
  regular use of a top drawer male organ health
  crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man
  Oil, which is clinically proven mild and safe for
  skin) can strengthen the manhood and ease typical
  soreness. A crème with potent moisturizing
  capabilities is best at this, so select one that
  includes both a high-end emollient (such as Shea
  butter) and a natural hydrator (such as vitamin
  E). It also is beneficial to find a crème that
  contains L-arginine, an amino acid that is part
  of the process by which male organ blood vessels
  are kept open and receptive to vital increased
  blood flow.
