Box 720, Inglewood calif., 90301 by Karen Klinger United press International men who bicycle ride motorcycles play hockey practice karate kicks or engage in a variety of other activities should be aware that a Blunt injury to the Groin area could make them impotent. That warning was contained in a recent study by researchers at Boston University school of Medicine who found that Blunt injuries such As those that can happen if a Man Falls on a bicycle Cross bar can cause artery blockages that May Lead to impotence. The study by or. Irwin Goldstein and colleagues found that injuries can cause immediate impotence but in some instances apparently also can make men impotent years after the incident. An estimated 10 million american men Are affected by impotence or the inability to achieve an erection. Researchers once thought that psychological factors were largely to blame for the condition. Now however they estimate that about 90 percent of cases have physical causes ranging from injury to High blood pressure diabetes and aging. Goldstein the author of the Book the potent male used a technique called Arterio Graphy to a Ray the penile arteries of 131 impotent men ranging Between 17 and 53 in age to see what role artery blockages played in their conditions. In a report published in the november Issue of the journal of urology he and co researchers found that among 27 men whose impotence clearly was linked to injuries arteries to the Penis were blocked in areas that corresponded to the Sites of the trauma. However among most of the remaining 104 men whose impotence was thought to result primarily from non injury causes such As hardening of the arteries the locations of artery blockages were much More scattered. Free arterial blood flow is important to male Potency because a Many a ability to achieve and sustain an erection depends on blood flowing into and becoming trapped in the Penis once the smooth muscle of the Organ relaxes. Goldstein found that among the 27 men who sustained injuries from causes such As bicycling baseball karate and Falls impotence either had developed immediately after the Accident or the incident had occurred in childhood and resulted in lifelong impotence. Among 11 of the other 104 men however the researchers determined that their impotence apparently was injury related but had developed Only after several years. From that Goldstein concluded it was a Likely that Blunt injury to the arteries of the Penis May not be severe enough in some situations to cause immediate instead he said it seems in some cases that damage to the inside lining of the arteries a especially if combined with other risk factors such As smoking or High blood pressure a leads to blockages Only after a period of time. Quot these findings Are important Quot he said Quot because they suggest that Blunt injury to the Crotch May be a risk Factor for the later development of Goldstein also found that 12 men in the study had artery blockages that suggested a past injury even though they could not remember experiencing one. He said that indicates injuries in childhood could play a role in creating blocked arteries in patients whose impotence stems from unknown causes. No athletic protector on the Market is capable of preventing the types of straddle injuries to the Crotch that caused impotency in some men in the study said Goldstein who has urged the development of new protective devices. For men who suffer from injury caused impotency he said surgery to bypass artery blockages often can overcome the problem.
