Bruises are unsightly and uncomfortable, but usually, nothing to worry about. However, when a man sees one on his hulking member, he might react a little dramatically. Most bruises just need a little time and TLC to go away, but sometimes, bruises can be more than they appear and require a trip to the doc to be sure it’s just a bruise and not something more serious like a penile fracture. Here’s a primer on bruised penile tissue; think of it at Penis Bruising 101, on what to look for, wha...

For most men, maintaining an appropriate level of both penis health and overall physical health is a worthy goal. And since overall health often has a significant impact on specific penis health, that desire to achieve in both areas is a good one.

Nothing will drive a man to the search engines faster than the eruption of a penis rash. A rash on the manhood can cause panic, but at the same time, most men are reluctant to reveal their business to a doctor. As a result, it is normal for guys to turn to online sources for information. Unfortunately, the Internet is an imperfect diagnostic tool when a speckled pecker is in play, as rashes can spring up due to a huge number of different triggers, and rashes can look a little different from ...
