Premature ejaculation can be somewhat alleviated by taking Viagra, but it does not fundamentally solve the problem of premature ejaculation. For premature ejaculation accompanied by erectile dysfunction, taking Viagra can improve symptoms to some extent. However, for premature ejaculation caused by inflammation of the reproductive system, taking Viagra will not result in significant improvement. Therefore, whether premature ejaculation can be treated with Viagra should be determined based on different medical conditions.

Is dorsal nerve blocking surgery good for premature ejaculation?

Dorsal penile nerve block surgery involves selectively severing some branches of the dorsal nerve of the penis. Its main risks are that if too few nerves are cut, it may not achieve the therapeutic purpose, and if too many are cut, it could affect the erectile function of the penis, resulting in impotence, or even cause numbness or dullness in the local area, leading to an inability to ejaculate. Therefore, dorsal penile nerve block surgery should be cautiously considered and not used as a routine method for treating premature ejaculation.

Does a long foreskin cause premature ejaculation?

A prolonged foreskin definitely leads to premature ejaculation, because if the foreskin is too long, it constantly covers the glans, which generally does not get exposed. As a result, the glans receives less external stimulation and becomes more sensitive. Therefore, during sexual activity, as the penis erects and the glans is exposed and comes into contact with a partner’s body, its heightened sensitivity can lead to premature ejaculation. Thus, an elongated foreskin certainly causes premature ejaculation.
