Soft Penis Erection. Normal Blood Tests. Having Spinal Stenosis. Is This Affecting My Sex Life? Treatment?
Hi Doctor,
I was diagnosed with severe central canal stenosis at L3-L4 and moderate stenosis with L2-L3 five years ago. I am only 38 years, married 7 years ago and have two kids. Last six months I am experiencing soft penis erection. I went and saw a GP and did a blood test. Everything including hormone was good. My worry is whether my spinal stenosis is playing up with my sex life. I don’t have pain in my legs or back. If spinal stenosis is the case, then what’s the option to improve my sex life? Will fusion surgery improve this?
