What Causes Back Pain With Nagging Pain In Penis?

About 5 years ago, I experienced trauma which caused serious lower back pain. I knew that something had happened in my genital region but the pain in my back was so severe that it didn t register right away. Since then, I have had nagging pain in my scrotum/penis. I had an ultrasound and CAT scan at the time and everything looked normal. After a year of severe pain during ejaculation, a surgeon said he detected a very small inguinal hernia and unless we fixed that, we wouldn t know if it might be causing the pain. I let him do it. I still had the pain after that and got another opinion. The guy said he wouldn t treat me any further because there was no hard evidence of any issue. I gave up but for 5 years have had pain like a toothache and worse pain during intercourse. I was recently moving something heavy and during the move, I felt a tear in my penis. It was almost as if that was the original issue which maybe partially healed and when I lifted the object, re-tore. I finally went back to a doctor and got an MRI which didn t show anything. A urologist has looked at this case heavily. I even had him do an exploratory procedure while I was getting a vasectomy. He has found nothing. He believes like I do that there is a muscle tear. The problem is he didn t refer me on to another doctor. I have since gotten more aggressive to try to pinpoint the location and there are times when I can locate the center of the pain. It seems like its between the muscle fibers back in the part of the penis that is concealed by the sack. When I touch it, it feels severe and I almost pass out. My urologist believes that I am correct and there is a tear but he can t help me. After having no success with local doctors, I need to know if this is in fact a possibility. If it is, are there doctors that specialize in this? Is it likely that an injury such as this can be repaired?

Hello,

It is due to neuropathic causes related to your spinal injury. Consult a neurosurgeon and get evaluated. As of now, you can take analgesics like aceclofenac or tramadol for pain relief.
