Effective treatment for Hard Flaccid Syndrome
Hard Flaccid syndrome is when the penis is semi-rigid most or all of the time without sexual arousal. A full erection is usually problematic. HFS is relatively rare and most common among men aged 18-35, although it can occur in men of any age.
Men with HFS symptoms say they notice a change in penis shape, size and texture while swelling and a cold or numb sensation are also often reported. Chronic pain in the perineum, the area located between the anus and penis, is experienced by the majority of HFS sufferers.
The condition can cause significant distress to those who experience it. Many healthcare professionals do not recognise the causes of HFS as it is not an official medical condition. The NHS provide very few details.
If you are suffering from the symptoms of HFS, our clinicians will be pleased to provide a consultation to see how we can offer support and treatment.
