A member asked:
Can mild nerve damage in the penis be treatd as peripheral neuropathy with intravenous immunoglobulin (ivig)? is there hope of successfully fixing it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Try urology: traumatic nerve injury would not respond to IVIG treatment. For your particular condition, a urologist could probably help.
