yes it can help your situation. having penile implant surgery is a major life changing decision. my friend’s husband had the surgery performed twice (the first surgical procedure resulted in lots of pain and a deformed looking penis). the 2nd surgery done 4 years ago had more positive results. there are multiple types of implants to meet your needs. here are the disadvantages and advantages as i know them to be: - non-inflatable type - a rod is implanted and is simply bent up to reveal the erect penis. it is easy to use for individuals with dexterity or arthritic conditions. the downside is that the man will have a constant erection (the penis is always erect and just needs to be bent upwards to reveal the erection. this can be annoying and sometimes painful. this appliance can also cause a thinning of the penile flesh and can be perceived as having an abnormal appearance. - 2 piece inflatable appliance- it is promoted as being easy to use because the man simply pumps it up to have an erect penis and pumps it down when not in use. fluid is transferred into cylinders which become firm and imitate an erect penis. with this devise the penis is not as firm as with other appliances may be difficult to inflate and can cause penile tissue thinning - 3 piece inflatable units - the appliance is pumped up for an erection and a release valve is pressed to eliminate the erect state. again cylinders are filled with fluid to develop an erection. this device is promoted as providing the most natural look and feel has more fluid being sent through the cylinders to produce a firmer erection cause the least amount of pain and discomfort and is least likely to cause penis tissue deterioration. with all of these devices the individual will never again be able to have a natural occurring erection. my recommendation is to search out the most competent urologic surgeons and review the number of procedures performed and their patient satisfaction rate. this process is best accomplished through internet searches. some urologists hold regular classes for men interested in having the surgery completed. at these sessions all questions may be addressed and an opportunity to see how the devices work is usually provided. choose a surgeon that treats the individual post-surgically with recovery in a hospital setting for a few days. some surgeries are performed as a same day procedure with possible resulting complications (bleeding pain urinary difficulty) being ignored. additionally with the same day surgery the patient usually is catherized and must return the following day to have it removed. in summary this surgery can improve the quality of both partner’s lives. having medical conditions such as diabetes is most likely responsible for the ed. your situation will most likely not respond adequately to pills creams injections or pumps. i suggest interviewing multiple urologists before deciding on the doctor entrusted to implant your penile device.
