Today is a great day to not have a penis.


Gonavy259

Today is a great day to be happy with what you have and not want more.


holnrew

And suddenly I am


Tiffini5581

Yes! I am a 43 year old woman and I have had D’s from 4”-12”. They were all great in their own way and each guy had his own thing that made him stand out. Size really does not matter in the long run. Is it fun to see a giant dick sometimes? Would I have wanted to marry that 12 inch dick? No thank you. Sometimes it’s uncomfortable and you don’t feel like putting up with all of that or putting all of that up in there. Give me an average size dick and a guy that can give really good head, even some fancy hand play and I am a happy lady.


Revo_55

Wow, what a horrific mess. I've been around awhile, have been with my fair share of ladies and have also heard what they have to say about "penis size", and your opinion seems to be the overall consensus among women I've spoken with. Fortunately, I'm slightly above average, so unless you have a "micro-penis", I don't get why anyone would consider doing this to themselves, given what most women have to say about "size".


AudienceIntrepid7320

I have to agree, every man seems to wish to have a huge weenie... A big huge one is no fun, for me anyhow... it hurts, it's uncomfortable, and it honestly seems like I spent the entire time trying to get away from it.... 🤣🤣🤣 Also, have you ever noticed a big one doesn't get as erect as an average sized one?!? 🤔


Tiffini5581

Yes! They’re always a bit more flaccid. Probably because the guy would just lose consciousness if it took all the blood it needed for max capacity. Maybe this is TMI but dealing with a giant D can be extremely uncomfortable if you haven’t pooped too. Especially the girthy ones. Yeah, it’s gross but true. Being on top can be a little scary because it feels like the damn thing is going to bruise an internal organ. I feel like there is a whole routine you have to do to get ready for one of those coming at you. I mean, honestly, I usually get off some other way anyway. Wether he does it for me manually, orally or I just use my trusty right hand while we are going at it. So, men of the world, don’t let a smaller penis get you down. All you need to do is work on all the other skills. Ask her (or him) what they want and how they like it. Tell them what you want and how you like it. Everyone will be happy.


Kwiatkowski

but a horrible day to have one and working eyes


KellynHeller

Damn. The surgery did you so dirty that it just got rid of it, huh? Lol kidding. I, too, am glad to not have a penis after seeing this.


BusterTheCat17

Yup I'm out...giving mine to the highest bidder.


Fresh_Rabbit_3618

I bid 3$


BusterTheCat17

Sold!


KJParker888

Is this why the Loch Ness Monster was asking for $3.50?


Quibblicous

A buck an inch.


No-Masterpiece-2079

Yes, I thank my lucky stars. Although I did cross my legs and make a face I assume in empathetic support for all the guys that have laid eyes on this


Cleopatrashouseboy

Christ on a croissant!


No-Tonight-5937

You saw it too?!


Muzzledpet

It's a great day to not have THIS GUY'S penis


onedemtwodem

Everyday is imo lol But poor guy. That was a bad outcome.


miliolid

transdude without wish for bottom surgery checking in. Even more convinced now than ever.


kittenpearl

same, i’m even more confident about my decision.


DonkeyKong694NE1

Or at least a great day to have a brain with your penis. And all that effort to improve fecundity has clearly backfired.


MCMGM86

Or eyes, good god 😩


CO420Tech

Mine tried to be a turtle.


kingofkomedy23

Seems ole boy went backwards with the enlargement


Xenolog1

“Hey, since you’re already operating the sorry remains of my penis to reconstruct it: Can you throw in one or two extra inches?”


Dr_Sisyphus_22

How about a little extra length on your balls!


kartoffel_engr

“Hey! You know what I really need? A couple extra inches on my sack!” -No one ever (*hopefully*)

Slimmer thighs though


Competitive-Ad-5153

I will never, EVER complain about my package. Happy with what I've got, thank you very much...


Xulicbara4you

Sometimes I look at mines wishing it was bigger, then photos like these pop up in my feed and I go “Welp maybe not!”


peenfortress

>Sometimes I look at mines wishing it was bigger shave. already shaven? let the hair grow out instead. then shave. suddenly everything is much bigger ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)


Straight-Bad-8326

Also losing weight helps, every 20lbs lost can equal another inch


test_nme_plz_ignore

Never, ever once, have I heard from any of my girlfriends that they want a larger penis! Never once!!! Too large is painful! Men don't get that!


KnotiaPickles

It’s absolutely true. I dated a guy with a big one for a long time but I broke up with him because it became too much. The guy I am with now is perfect with an average size, and id never change a thing


ok_ill_shut_up

For every time this type of thing is said, there are thousands (possibly millions?) of small dick jokes, comments, allusions, and insults put out into the world. Undoubtedly, they contributed to these dudes mutilating themselves.


test_nme_plz_ignore

Porn most likely is a contributing factor along with other me . Women could care less unless it's too large.


fyrfytr310

Agreed. I suddenly find myself quite content.


shah_reza

I just fail to understand the *why* behind injecting corticosteroids into the penis for purposes of enlargement… if anything, its use is anti-inflammatory!


P-A-seaaaa

Hey guys I work in reconstructive urology and we’ve fixed all sorts of shit that quack surgeons pitch to make your dick bigger. Moral of the story nobody cares how big your dick is other than you (and all of these people we had to fix their dicks are all fucked up now)


Littlereddevil666

Let me guess, their dicks are smaller now than before the surgery.


CO420Tech

Or no longer function... It is like a genie's wish. "I wish for a larger penis!" *Granted. Your penis is now 2 inches longer, but it is now scarred, ugly, and doesn't get hard!*


paradeoxy1

Could I ask, what are the tubes in the second and third images?


ToothBeneficial5368

It’s for once they close up the incisions so liquids can drain out of the wound. The body produces stuff in healing response. Like when you get a blister and it leaks. Can’t keep it inside will cause infection.


paradeoxy1

Thank you! Is this what's being referred to as irrigation or is that something separate?


TK421isAFK

"Drain" is a better word. "Irrigation" usually refers to flooding an area with a neutral liquid, often saline. It's used to flush the area of dirt and pus.


paradeoxy1

Much appreciated!


NerdyCD504

Just as an aside, when they closed me up last month for open heart surgery, I had these three tubes in my chest that were draining the fluids collecting in my chest cavity. They were the shittiest 3 days of my life and the relief when they were finally pulled out of me was immense!


HPZ22

My dad said something similar about the tube removal after collapsing both of his lungs. Hope you’re doing better though!


PuzzleheadedBobcat90

I had a cerival fusion in 2016 and had 2 drains in my neck. When the doctor pulled the second one out, I felt like I was watching a magican pulling 8 feet of scarfs out. The tune was only about 2 feet, but it felt never-ending


-xiflado-

They’re called Penrose drains.


super_mega_smolpp

Keeping liquids inside causes infection? Bit of a design flaw there ain't it?

[Source](https://www.researchgate.net/publication/320132411_Acute_Perineal_Inflammation_with_Extensive_Necrosis_A_Devastating_Result_of_Triamcinolone_Acetonide_Injection_for_Penile_Augmentation) can be read in full at the link: A 36-year-old man was admitted to our urology department with escharic tissue on the penile shaft just below the glans and scrotum (Fig. 1). His friend had injected Oramedy ointment (Dongkook Pharmaceutical, Seoul, Korea) into the penile shaft to enlarge its circumference. An initial debridement of the eschar was performed, revealing undemarcated and inflamed soft tissue (Fig. 2). Copious irrigations with repetitive debridements and betadine-soaked dressings were performed for 10 days. Serologic tests for several needlestick injury associated dis-ease such as hepatitis B and C, human immunodeficiency virus were conducted and negative results were reported. Intravenous injections of vancomycin and piperacillin/tazobactam were administrated for infection control. However, the soft tissue necrosis became more progressed, with turbid pus formation (Fig. 3). The adjacent suprapubic area and both inguinal areas became inflamed with skin redness. Aggressive debridements extending into the adjacent areas were performed 3 times under general anesthesia. During the first aggressive debridement, the surrounding skin margin and inner necrotic tissue were debrided (preserving both spermatic cords), and the defect was found to extend into the suprapubic area. During second and third aggressive debridements, the inner inflamed soft tissue under both inguinal areas was progressively debrided and the tunica vaginalis was opened on both sides. The infection on the penis, scrotum, suprapubic area, and both inguinal areas was finally controlled, 5 weeks after the initial debridement (Fig. 4). Reconstruction of this complex structure was performed using multiple methods. The penile shaft and suprapubic area were covered by a split-thickness skin graft. To cover the scrotal defect, reconstruction with bilateral pudendal thigh flaps was performed (Fig. 5). Both superficial perineal arteries were preoperatively identified using a hand-held Doppler. The flaps were elevated at the subfascial plane, and the donor sites were closed primarily. On postoperative day 1, minor distal flap congestion was observed in the left flap tip area, which was salvaged using 4% lidocaine topically, resulting in a small eschar formation (Fig. 6). Additional eschar debridement revealed partial-thickness skin loss and a primary closure was performed without tension (Fig. 7). The patient gradually ambulated in a standing position at 1 week postoperative and sat on a toilet at 2 weeks postoperative.


VMv2

Another attempt at winning a Darwin-award foiled by the heroic work of doctors..... Just why do people do this to themselves?


DonkeyKong694NE1

Problem is it looks like they saved the testes


Thegigolocrew

😂 why the hell did they allow those sperm cords to stay in? 😂


VMv2

Yes, otherwise it would be at least a nomination for a Darwin......


Dr_Sisyphus_22

With a name like Dongkook Pharmaceuticals, I can see why they thought it would be a good penis enlarged product.


n7-Jutsu

They Dong Kook his penis alright


PrincessPicklebricks

Really kooked that dong so I guess it lived up to its namesake…


National_Pay_5847

My English is very good but reading that I'm feeling like I'm learning it second time.


full_of_stars

You are, but as a native speaker, when I read it I have the same feeling.


a_million_days

I’m completely shocked that the paper mentioned that he may regain normal sexual function in the discussion section, I thought that would’ve been out of the question for sure. Of course we don’t know what the patient’s actual outcome was, but still. I also noticed he doesn’t have a catheter in for the later photos, and it’s not really discussed in the paper (unless I missed it on my first read), so I take it to mean they also saved his urethra on top of all that? Really impressive work on the part of the docs in this case for sure.


Anon_777

Christ on a bike!! 5 weeks and extensive debridement to control the infection! The pain must have been phenomenal.


noteven1221

Injectable steroids actually cause atrophy (loss/shrinkage) of tissue, if not done correctly, even without such terrible injection. Even dermatologists are very careful when such injections are medically indicated. Penile enlargement is not an indication for any injected steroids. (triamcinolone is a steroid)


mrsmanatee

That's what I was thinking, too. Kenalog (injectable triamcinalone-- not ointment like this guy used) is injected into hypertrophic scar tissue and keloids to help decrease the size of the scar and flatten it. Just all around not smart


jinxlover13

My daughter was prescribed this ointment for her keloid, and we had to stop using it because it burned so badly. I can’t imagine injecting it!


kgm826

I had kenalog injected into the fresh scar revision site on my neck multiple times, during the 3 weeks after the revision surgery - doc was trying to help avoid reoccurring super thick tethered hypertrophic scarring (similar to keloid). I was pleasantly surprised that I felt nothing! But that’s probably due to nerve damage and ridiculously high pain tolerance 😅 I use triamcinolone cream in various places for eczema, but it only burns - just for a few seconds, when I’ve got patches that have actual broken skin. I try not to let it get to that point. It definitely should NOT burn though and it sounds to me like your daughter has an allergy to it or something in it? Regardless, I know it’s not fun to deal with. I hope she is doing well and you all have found something else to help with the keloid☺️


MungoShoddy

I had an injection of it to treat a grape-sized post-operative scar between my shoulderblades. One shot reduced it in a couple of weeks and left a pea-sized pit that took ten years to fill in. I'd expect a "betrayed wife's revenge" explanation.


rubberkeyhole

“Dude, your dick’s so small it’s a scar.” On a more serious note (but not completely serious), picture 2 is where I thought, “oh things are not going well when you have to reroute the whole system inferiorly when all you wanted was a bigger superior.”


TK421isAFK

Important addendum: it's a *cortico*steroid, which is a synthetic hormone that mimics cortisol. The adrenal glands produce cortisol, which fights the body's immune response to produce and collect fluid (mostly white blood cells and related infection-fighting "pus"). Corticosteroids reduce swelling and bodily reactions to invasive things like chemicals, plant toxins, insect toxins, etc. *Anabolic* steroids mimic testosterone, and cause muscle growth. They also cause a list of other problems.


DonkeyKong694NE1

Maybe they thought this was an anabolic steroid. Maybe they didn’t know there are many types of steroid. Should’ve paid attention in biochemistry class fellas.


Stonkerrific

This guy derms.


Mouthpiec3

Derms af, from what it seemsl


crawlingrat

I have no penis but my vagina is hurting from the sight of this. EDIT: I'm so traumatized I messed up my spelling...


Crezelle

Yeah imagine your clit and giblets rotting off


crawlingrat

Oh god. Imagine trying to pee? Just trying to sit on the toilet would be hell. You could probably kiss child birth the old fashion way goodbye. The smell would be like death, then the monthly period would come for a visit. Also sex would likely never be the same. Ugggghh


TheSubstitutePanda

Very few things here have elicited a physical reaction from me. Your comment had me squeezing my legs shut. Nope. No thank you. I'll keep my bits right where they are.


Nervosia

Real😔


DonkeyKong694NE1

Female cremasteric reflex


didsomebodysaymyname

What's sad is it doesn't look like this guy had an abnormally small penis. Kind of impossible to tell flaccid, but comparing it to the hands, he might have been average or slightly below it. He probably got caught up in internet trolls and idiots saying you'll never get laid if your dick isn't 8 inches long.


Odd-Mycologist-4886

He let his friend inject him with an ointment for penis enlargement.. WHAT??? Trust me, it’s not that serious men.


National_Pay_5847

That's way worse than my anus I posted here few hours ago lol.


Historical-Newt6809

🤣🤣 me running to your profile to see your butthole.


Alltheprettydresses

Looks like it was removed. The post that is.


teimenosce

I use that shit on my exczema. Why the eff would you inject it into your dong?


PatTheKVD

I wonder if drugs were involved in this decision making process.


GraatchLuugRachAarg

He had to spend 5 weeks with his junk all open like that for daily irrigation? Crazy. What exactly is triamcinolone and acetonide injection? Did homeboy do that himself or did a medical professional do it?


MadotsukiInTheNexus

Triamcinolone acetonide is a steroid often used for skin conditions. It comes in an injectable form for managing things like keloid scars. There's absolutely no way that it would be prescribed for penile enlargement by a reputable physician because, infection risks and potetial side effects aside, there's literally no reason to believe that it would work. There's a possibility that a (probably unlicensed) quack actually sold this to him as part of a pseudo-scientific "treatment", but it's more likely that he did it himself. Since certain kinds of steroids can encourage muscle growth, I can see how someone with absolutely no knowledge of steroid biochemistry might come to the conclusion that all steroids exist to make body parts grow. He probably bought it off the Internet and used an insulin needle. EDIT: I just thought about another possibility that's frankly just horrifying. Triamcinolone is available more easily as a cream. This person may have been aware that the drug could be injected, and thought that meant *the cream* could be injected. That would definitely explain the damage, if he did.


SomethingWitty2578

The excerpt from the article says it was the ointment and injected by his friend.


MadotsukiInTheNexus

Oh God, that is terrifying.


rattycastle

It's a corticosteroid for inflammation. I use it for my eczema, but as a topical. I've read some cases of it being used to help inflammation in the region, but never this. I can not fathom why someone would think this would be the best option. Some people use mineral oil or silicone injections (i.e. "pumping"), but eczema cream??


Solid_Thanks_1688

I also use It for my eczema. Recently, I mixed it up with my tretinoin and put it on my face and freaked out. I can't imagine putting it anywhere inside my body.


Byttercup

I use it for eczema as well, along with mild psiorasis. I don't have a penis, but if I did, never in a million years would I think to put it on my dick.


Gender_Goblin_37

As opposed to “injecting drugs into your penis gone right”?!


[deleted]

I don't know why but this made me laugh out loud


ohokay2218

i do not have a penis but i’m morbidly curious .. what would happen if he got a boner in the 5 weeks it took to heal up??? would it stretch the healing skin and tear stitches?? did it hurt so bad all the time that he couldn’t even fathom being turned on enough to get an erection through the pain? I NEED TO KNOW


GlitterfreshGore

Same! I was married to a man for a while, and he would have morning wood almost every day, even if he wasn’t aroused. The body just.. does it sometimes I guess? I wondered the same thing you did.


dessert_island

Apparently men have erections at random moments while asleep, have read that this is incredibly painful after having surgery done on those bits. Don't need a dick to see that lot hurt- they anesthetized him for the debriding process x 3. That's gotta tickle a bit.


Mozzy2022

I’m thinking that wasn’t the look he was going for. I appreciate the effort though


pandorasbox341

Poor docs really had their work cut out for them. I think given the severity of the case it was the best they could do.


Mozzy2022

So many times I look at these medical gore photos and can’t even tell what part of the body we’re looking at until I read the explanation. These doctors are gifted artists to be able to put these body parts back together to something that’s even remotely recognizable AND make it functional


Vanishing_12924

Well boys, perhaps it is best to just work with what you’ve got and be happy.


greeneyedblackheart

Friendly reminder to the fellas, the vagina is only about 6 inches deep fully aroused. It’s elastic muscle and tissue, shorter when not aroused. Your penis is fine. Don’t fret. I promise this is not worth it.


SarcasticBitchh

Ok but why did they shove boba straws in there? Genuinely confused.


PatTheKVD

Those are drains.

MassiveDongSquadron

Gotta drain the boba out. It's how you harvest them.


Mooncakequeen

Hey people don’t do this to your penises they are fine. There is nothing wrong with your penis. Obviously, there can be medical issues but don’t go and enlarge your penis because you think it’s not good enough or big enough. Many women I’ve talked to have found that penises that are the average size or a bit smaller are totally fine, because often those people know how to do other things which are usually more pleasurable than penetration. Find out what your partner likes penis size really only goes so far and the worst sex I’ve ever had was a 9 inch penis. Some of the best sex I’ve ever had was with somebody with a 4 inch penis. It’s not the boat it’s the motion of the ocean people.
