"The pain was off the scale. It was really excruciating. It came in waves. I could actually see where it broke and snapped. I knew that I had to go to the hospital," he revealed.

While having sex, one can often just lose bearings and end up doing some things that could turn out to be quite regretful, not to forget painful. Take the case of Sean Marsden, 48, who was having sex with his girlfriend Louise Gray, 36 on the night of December 22 last year.


Marsden “slipped” and heard his penis "snap." He realized it immediately that things were really wrong because soon he experienced excruciating pain. His penis had swollen up to such an extent that it looked like a "wine bottle." He was taken to the hospital with his penis in bandages and after several dosages of morphine to numb the pain.

Although advised by doctors to not engage in anything frisky for at least a month, Marsden could not resist the urge. He had sex with his girlfriend within three weeks of breaking his penis but thankfully it was okay.

According to a New York Post report, the painter and decorator from Bridgnorth, England said, "I heard it snap and I said to Louise straight away that something was wrong. I grabbed hold of it and it just grew and grew. I didn’t think it was going to stop. It went up to the size of a bottle of wine. It was beyond my control and scared me to death. The pain was off the scale. It was really excruciating. It came in waves. I could actually see where it had broke and snapped. I knew that I had to go to hospital."
Surgeons performed a procedure called “penile exploration” to repair the muscles and tissue fibers that had ruptured in the accident leading to severe bruising. They also had to fix his urethra – the tube that is connected to the bladder, that had also been damaged.

He was sent home the next day after the procedures and was fitted with a temporary catheter connecting to his groin and bladder. Gray said she was frightened the night of the incident, "I was in complete shock when it happened. I knew that something was seriously wrong. I could see the break and could see that it was broken. It was extremely traumatic and he has really struggled with it. I didn’t even think it was possible for a penis to snap. I felt so bad about it. I felt guilty and still feel guilty because I thought I was responsible."

She added, "He’s been in so much pain and it has been awful to see. It was really scary when it happened. I didn’t know what to do. I felt helpless.” Speaking about the first time they had sex after the accident, Gray said, “Everything seemed ok but he did hurt himself the first time we had sex again. Sean didn’t want to wait six weeks. It looked like the swelling had gone down and it looked like it had healed. It was a scary thing to do because I didn’t want to hurt him again. It’s a relief that he can still have sex. He looked ok so I couldn’t say no. Obviously, everything was working how it should.”

Since the incident, the couple have had sex twice although Marsden wishes it could be more frequent.
