Question
i am 14 and i cannot get my penis hard ever since i had a bikng accident. i was with my mates and hit my crouch. ever since then i can not get it hard. could that be a reason or is it just in my head
Answer
It is possible to injure the blood supply or nerves to the penis and have difficulty with an erection. There is a great deal we don't know about your case like when did this happen, days, weeks or months ago, is it difficult to pee. You need a carefull history and exam by your general practitioner and if necessary a specialist called a urologist (specializes in problems with the penis and bladder). Please go to your GP right away.
Good luck
