Every surgical procedure carry some element of risk. No medical intervention is free from problems or risks. Penis enlargement can be done by natural methods like exercise or simple methods like using pills and lotions and some medications. Millions of websites and thousands of quacks give all the necessary information about penis enlargement. But these are not reliable and no one has yet come up with a hundred percent success rate in any of these methods. Pumps have been used to get satisfactory erections. Weights have been used to increase the length of the penis. Ever so often people come up with newer ideas on this all-important issue. Penile enlargement can be done through surgery but it is a surgery that is performed on a very important part of the body. Though the actual surgery for penis enlargement takes hardly a couple of hours and can be done on an outpatient basis, it does carry some risks and dangers. It depends on the type of surgery performed. If there is a silicone injection used to enlarge the penis, then the silicone may settle into a lump after some time. Though this is rare as the amount used is not much, still a small amount of risk is involved.
If it consists of using tissues from another part of the patient’s own body, the risk of infection to the parent part can be there. As a part of the same body has been used, the problem of rejection does not arise. But the tissues have to be accepted and absorbed by the body. This takes time and there may be some swelling, some pain or irritation. Discomfort is also another problem but all these side effects are quite minor as compared to the actual procedure and its benefits.
Sometimes penile enlargement using surgical methods may cause temporary numbness in the area, bruising, some discomfort or swelling. Medications can cure all this but as it is only temporary it is to be expected and accepted without any problems. More important are the psychological problems. Those with an idea that their penis is too small will carry a chip on their shoulder about their sex life. Even after surgery and an obvious difference in the size, the patient may still have some doubts, which have to be controlled and overcome. To become normal even after some time has elapsed after surgery takes a few days. Patients have to refrain from sexual activities for at least six weeks after the surgery. |
