Can You break your penis?

Relax -- it's not common. But it’s possible. The penis has no bones. It has chambers that fill up with blood when you're erect. If you push too hard and bend it too far, the chambers can tear.

Surgery is usually the best treatment.

How long is the average erect penis?

Peyronie’s disease is one cause, and treatment can help.
