A 29-year-old man has sued the manufacturers of a sexual enhancement supplement, claiming it caused his penis to fracture in a horrifying incident at Houston motel last year.

But though Adrian Carter of Texas blames the supplement, three urologists told ABCNews.com com that penile fractures are most often the result of rough sex.

Emergency room doctors had to "deglove" Carter's penis in order to repair it, rendering him unable to have sex or future children, Carter claimed.

Holy shit!!!!

5. I got it, unfortunately.....

...a mental scar I will bear for the rest of my life, I'm afraid--that'll be like fingernails on a chalkboard, every time I think about it.

11. Don't put in "degloved penis" in google and look at the images

Unless you have a strong stomach.

12. I have a strong stomach,

but even so, I have no desire to see an image. I was grossed out by the description in the article, and I believe that it was very tame.

Now, the question on everyone's mind: Why would you google it????

6. fracturing = his fault. exploding = their fault.

moron out to get his...pound of flesh.

[Curmudgeoness]

7. Ewwwwww!

[lastlib]

10. I'd say his flesh was pounded, all right!

Good one!!

(whatever that was he took, remind me not to take it!! Or to get "degloved"! OWWWWWCH!!)

8. Ouch!

He should not have a problem wearing dresses now, but he should skip the 7-inch heels.

9. Honey, everyone should skip 7-inch heels! nt

13. The other side is saying the guy is BSing for a big cash settlement....

Degloving would never have been done in an emergency room, but by a skilled surgeon, he said. If the urinary channel is also affected by the fracture, the injury can be bloody, but "blood squirting out helter skelter" is not possible, "I can guarantee you," he said.

"When a man breaks his penis it can be very scary," said Carney. "I believe he took this story and spiced it up."

Carney said that he has heard "everything under the sun" when men arrive in the emergency room with a fractured penis. "The most common one told is they walked into an ironing board.".....Urologist Ritenour agreed.

"You never know if you are getting the real story," he said. "People are embarrassed. The real point of this story is that this is a medical emergency and you really need to come and be seen so it can be handled surgically and fixed."

14. I've never heard the term "degloved" before.

I looked it up in Google images and nearly died.

Oooooohhhnhhh.

[Curmudgeoness]

15. Nor had I....but I didn't look on google.

Since the article gave me enough information to know that I did not want to know more. And I'm female! I can't imagine how a man would feel about it!

Gotta love google! I am no longer ignorant. Just yesterday, I learned what fromunda cheese was. LOL
