In a bizarre incident, a newly-married man was rushed to the hospital in Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj after he overdosed on Viagra. The drug is used to treat sexual disorders like erectile dysfunction and pulmonary arterial hypertension.
According to reports, the doctors saved the man from fatal consequences but he will have to deal with a permanent problem for the rest of his life.?
Having gotten married only a few months ago, the man reportedly started taking the oral medication as advised by his friends. Note: Never take medical advice from people who are not qualified to offer it.
However, he began consuming more than the recommended dosage - he upped his dosage to 200 mg of the drug daily which is almost four times the prescribed amount.?
This led to the man having an erection that lasted for 20 days. His wife became frustrated and upset with the man's actions and left him to return to her maternal home. Her husband's family eventually convinced her to come back but she left again after admitting her husband to the hospital.?
Doctors performed penile prosthesis surgery on the man but now he will have to live with a condition forever - even though he can have children, he will always have tension in his private parts. He will also have to wear a tight cloth to hide the bulge. The doctors added that this will interfere with his normal life.?
Consuming medication without the guidance of a doctor should always be avoided to avoid disasters like these. Your body is a temple and should be treated like one. If you think you require medication for any condition, please consult a doctor first, and only then consume any sort of medicine.?
Many people are known to consume Viagra to elongate their erection but doing so can lead to an irreversible condition like what happened to this man. Be smart.?
