Lesson of the Day

Going over genitourinary disorders today. In the section talking about pyelonephritis (basically a kidney infection), it states that one of the risk factors for pyelonephritis is “sexual intercourse > 3 times/week.”

So all you tumblr folks complaining about not getting enough action… at least you have one less risk factor for a kidney infection. 

Just trying to brighten your day.

And for today’s (SST) medical lesson:

Penile fracture is surgical emergency that requires emergent urethral imaging and surgical repair. The most common cause is a crush injury of the erect penis, most commonly during intercourse when the female is on top of the male.

Those who have been following me for a while know that I occasionally share some of the things I learn. Because learning is fun. And it’s better when we all have fun together.

So you’re welcome. And be careful.

I make no guarantees that I am being serious. I might be, but most of the time I probably am not.

For my "more" serious side, look elsewhere (preferably at my other blog: JeffreyMD.com).
