Anyone heard of pudendal nerve and artery entrapment. can this cause ed ? my penis has been feeling numb. would an mri show pudendal artery / nerve compression. anyone ever did decompression surgery of the artery / nerve to fix ed ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
yes I have. Yes it can cause impotence. MRI will not show the pudendal artey.nerve compression. The condition is rare so not every surgeon has done it- but it has been done.
