If there’s one thing you don’t want to hear — in and out of the bedroom — it’s that your penis is a “sore, inflamed, misshapen” monstrosity that’s too much for the world to bear. Unfortunately for one Hungarian man, that’s exactly what he heard from his doctor after injecting vaseline into his penis. Oh, and as BroBible reports, his doctor also told him to “cross his fingers” and hope that a procedure that involved flaying his penis in order to save it would work.
Meet Szilveszter, a man with a fairly large problem: after he realized his penis wasn’t as big as he wanted it, Szilveszter injected vaseline directly into his genitals to engorge the member to an appropriate size. It worked, sort of, but it also led to disastrous results that caused him to seek professional help.
He explains his extreme agony on the TLC show Extreme Beauty Disasters. “Every day is difficult for me as it’s very painful and bleeding,” he pleaded. “This was the worst mistake in my life as I don’t feel like a real man.” He said he performed the procedure based solely on a friend’s recommendation, and I’m going to bet the farm that the friend is not a board certified medical practitioner.
But that’s not all:
“The other problem is the foreskin is swelling and splitting – the foreskin is 15 times more swollen than should be,” said the doctor.
The only way to save Szilveszter’s penis was to remove the skin and then cut off any scar tissue before it got worse and ulcerated. The problem was that his doctor had never done the procedure before and had to hope he was doing it right. (I also hope he didn’t learn how to do it from YouTube, which is where I learn how to do everything.)
Fortunately for Szilveszter, the surgery was a success (which might be why it ended up on TV), but his ordeal should serve as a cautionary for all other penis-wielding humans: don’t listen to your friends when they tell you to stick needles into your genitals.
