A Peruvian farmer underwent an operation after complaining of severe pain from an eight-day erection, a doctor at a hospital in the northern city of Sullana said Thursday.
"The patient arrived at the hospital in great pain because of the erection," surgeon Nelson Carrasco told AFP, adding that the 53-year-old had not taken a sexual stimulant or alcohol.
He said the patient, whose identity was withheld, suffers from priapism, a persistent erection of the penis often due to a blood clot in the erectile tissue.
Carrasco said the man underwent surgery at the Sullana hopsital, about 1000 kilometers (600 miles) north of Lima.
But he added, "We are looking for the cause of the priapism because if we don't find a solution it could reappear again."

Things that, when mentioned, make me wince.
You must be medical, as most people wouldn’t (ouch) know about that.

George Wallace, (the comedian, not the dead ex-governor) was on Dennis Miller’s show and commented on said “four hour” warning on the Cialis commercials:
“Hell, if i have one that lasts four hours, I’m gonna Ci-alis, and see Cindy, and see Jane...

Gotcha.
All you would have had to do was add the phrase “longitudinal incisions” and this thread would have, uh, shriveled up.
