Hello everyone,

Have posted this elsewhere but this seems the better place.

Sensitive info here but hopefully you can help.

About 8 months ago I sustained a sexual injury to my penis where I felt an extremely sharp pain at the base. I had been experiencing some loss of sensitivity leading up to this (possibly due to alcohol or a little to much masturbation) but after this injury I have now sustained about 60-70% loss of sensitivity.

I am trying to abstain from all sex and masturbation and have been doing hot/cold wraps, b6, b12, sam-e, carnitine/ALA.

I believe when symptoms first started to appear I didnt give things enough time to heal and most likely kept irritating the nerves. Just these past couple months have I started this regimen.

So my question is after all this time and some repeated irritation of the nerves after injury, am I past the point of no return? Could I still have a chance to regenerate? Can nerves heal if not completely severed?

Maybe I should get some MRIs of the pelvic/penile area as well to make sure nothing major happened during the injury in terms of a compressed/pinched nerve?

Any advice greatly appreciated. Thanks.
