Suggest Treatment For Erection Problem After Surgery For Bone Fusion
1 week ago today I had surgery for a bone fusion at c5/6 and C6/7. My biggest problem so to speak is the fact that I am unable to get an erection. I am a 60 year old male weighing 280 lbs with normal blood pressure and who does not smoke. Prior to the surgery I had NO problems with erectile dysfunction. Now I do?
Erectile dysfunction is best treated with the medication Viagra (sildenafil). This is very likely to improve your erection quality and duration. I would talk with a local doctor about prescribing this to you.
