Injury Recovery, Chronic Pain and ED
Hello, been recently sexually active again after almost 7 years. This was due to recovery from some cripplingly leg and shoulder injuries that also caused back problems and I ran into erectile dysfunction issues when trying to perform and it's not really something I've ever experienced.
While I was able to get kind of hard, maintaining an erection for more than a minute was very difficult and I was not able to climax which my partner really wanted so that added even more anxiety on top of the pain and performance issues. This isn't really an issue when masturbating but sex just involves so much more, plus thinking that I probably have that death grip issues after so many years without sex.
Have started doing some pelvic floor exercises and have drastically cut down on masturbation for the moment, planning to reintroduce it with a softer approach and more imagination than just porn. Mostly wondering if anyone has experience with ED after crippling injuries and if I am on the right path and or maybe I should look into anything else like Cialis/Viagra or a constriction ring.
