Hi. I had my prostate removed on 17 September 2007. I am 46 years old and experienced quite severe pain in my penis. Well, let me go back a bit. After the catheder was reoved, I started experiencing some kind of spontaneous stiffness in my penis. When this stiffness occurred, I had pain that felt as if it was at the base of my penis, or rather the bottom quarter of my penis. I have a fantastic urologist, but when I asked him about this, we always tend to start talking about something else. This carried on for weeks. I was prescribed to use 25mg Viagra daily. The penis pain persisted, and eventually I was put on the injection. Wow, I nearly died from pain when I had a full erection. The erection lasted for about two and a half hours. A very painful two and a half hours. I couldn't have sex, or even walk. Eventually, after about 10 weeks after the operation, my urologist gave me a capsule, 200mg Celebrex, that I take once a day. After the first capsule, the pain improved about 50%!!! I am on this medication only 3 days now, and feel significant improvement every day! This is fantastic. I still have to see when I attempt the next injection. I must stay on this medication for 10 days. I hope this will be of assistance to you.
