Bicycles cutting off penis arteries??


Question: this is a pretty embarassing and serious problem out there and i dont see it being asked, so here it is: what can be done to prevent men cutting the arteries off to their penises? what treatment can be done to fix it?
Answers: There ARE seats made now for men that have the middle of the seat hollowed out so the seat does not put pressure on the arteries to the penis and the prostate gland. Any good bike shop will have them. They work very well.
I don't know what you can do about it. It is about time that they invented a bicycle seat for men that would be designed for their anatomy.
There have been studies that show if a man who rides a bike alot stands a chance of restricting the flow of blood to his penis from the pressure of his weight against the seat in the area between his testicles and anus. However.... one would have to be riding his bike like all day everyday for this to become a serious problem, but I am sure that some are more sensitive to it then others.
One can avoid this simply by getting a more ergonomically designed seat or just making sure the one he has is adjusted properly.
I honestly suggest consult some good doctor, it will be safe.
Someone told me there are wider bicycle seats that are more comfortable to sit on. I've never found one so I couldn't tell you where to get one.

I no longer ride the exercise bikes in the gym because my stuff went to sleep and I got pins and needles.
you can bye sports leggings with padding in you know.
