An erect penis is a force to be reckoned with, and it's reasonable for men to compare notes and wonder if the tool they've been given measures up to the equipment of other guys. But if an erection is the yardstick by which men are measured, the judging can get tricky, as erections can look vastly different, depending on a man's anatomical gifts, hereditary tendencies and penis care techniques. Using Measuring Tape Over the years, multiple studies have been conducted all around the world, detailing length and girth of erect penises throughout the ages. Unfortunately, many of the researchers who conducted these studies seemed to be a little squeamish, and they allowed their subjects to perform their own measurements. Men got a little competitive, and in some cases, they may have embellished their personal results. Therefore, it can be difficult to determine what actually constitutes an average erection, as the statistics are open to debate. It is clear, however, that men who are a little on the small size when flaccid tend to gain more length when they're erect, when compared to men who are already larger to begin with. In fact, smaller men can increase by about 100 percent during an erection, while men with a more prominent flaccid penis might only gain a 75 percent increase in size and/or girth. As a result, it's quite possible that larger men might not look much different while erect; the two different penis types are often referred to as "growers" and "showers." In any event, most women rate the penis of their partner based on a healthy appearance and skill with the equipment, rather than on erect versus flaccid size. Focusing on Flow The internal anatomy of the penis consists of spongy chambers that are designed to absorb the onslaught of blood that is triggered by sexual stimulation. Under normal circumstances, when these chambers fill with blood, the penis becomes erect, and the blood is trapped inside the penis until the erection is no longer needed. However, these chambers can be damaged by certain activities, such as: - Dry masturbation - Sports injuries - Rough sex - Poor skin care A penis damaged in this way can curve and bend while erect, leaning to one side instead of pointing away from the body. This can make a man appear smaller, of course, but it can also cause pain, a deformed appearance, and difficulty engaging in intercourse. In some men, impotence may result from this issue. Preventing Penis Problems Despite the importance a penis plays in a man's life, this organ can be subject to a serious amount of neglect and abuse. Men who wear the proper protective gear while playing sports and who keep the health of the penis in mind while in the throes of pleasure, are less likely to deal with injuries that can lead to bedroom heartbreak down the line. Keeping clean is also a vital part of penis care, as tiny bacteria can invade the skin and make tissues swollen and sore. A cleansing with mild soap and water at least once per day can wash those invaders down the drain. In addition, a penis health creme, might provide help for overall penis health that a man might not get via other methods. The antioxidants in high-quality penis health cremes (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) can help to dissuade bacterial colonies from forming and causing unpleasant odors and skin irritation; and the nutrients in creams like this can keep skin soft and supple, as well as promoting the growth of healthy circulatory and nerve tissue. A cream like this may not boost length, but it can boost health, and when it comes to erections, a healthy penis is one of the most important factors.
