A member asked:

I hurt my back and i have discopathia l5-s1, l5-s2 and i start feel pain in my penis, can discopathia cause pain in penis?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Primary nerve roots contributory to the pudendal nerves are S2-S4....therefore, you have at least 1 component consistent with the clinical symptoms. You need to see your doctor to decide how to treat the disk problems.
