A member asked:
Is it possible to take care of penile arterial insufficiency?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps: If the arteries to the penis are obstructed (by cholesterol deposits) balloon angioplasty and/or stenting can be performed to restore proper blood flow. This procedure is becoming a more common treatment for impotence.
