How To Cure Numbness In Penis,leg And Feet After Lower Back Surgeries?

I have had 2 lower back surgeries in 1 year this August 29,2014. The surgeon that did it is also the Doctor. I am no better can hardly walk and my penis will not work. I have done seen a Urologist and he did a Turp on my prostate and that did not help me. I stay in pain that makes me cry and I am 55. I just seen a doctor for a second opinion and he wants to do a 3rd surgery to put in a cage where the other doctor did not help me. When I had discussed this issue with the surgeon he told me he did not want to hear about my sexual dysfunction, all he wants to do is cut on me again. No way! Can the doctor be sued for cutting my nerves to my penis, my legs are numb and I have no feeling in my feet or my penis area. Please give me some advice. thank you. signed Bobby

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Yes, such scenario is possible and considering your explanation it is very likely that there was some intaroperative damage of presacral nerves or parasympatetic trunch injury. These nerves are responsible for sexual function. You need to do electromiographic testing for a start and this will show us if there are some disorders. It may not be easily to treated but the exact cause should be found first. if there is no vascular issue then medication ssu viagra wont be helpful
