Doctors have revealed how a man’s penis rotted away after he injected vaseline to try and make it bigger.

The unnamed 45-year-old man went to the hospital after five days of suffering from an itchy sensation at the base of his member.

He then noticed a significant build-up of fluid and ulcers on the shaft of his penis, which were starting to rot and bleed.

The patient, from the South Pacific islands, was also feeling weak and suffering fevers.

He told doctors that he had self-injected petroleum jelly into his shaft two years earlier, in an attempt to boost his penis size.

2. That was dumb!

Vaseline goes on the outside, not inside which would clog the arteries and kill blood flow.

3. Fyi. This is illegal. Against the penal code.

4. Taking legal action would

be a slippery slope to go down.

13. Correct. All you have to do is something stupid that takes you out of the gene pool.

This definitely qualifies.

14. Two years earlier? The story is false.

Evidently this is common where this guy is from.

26. Asking for friend: any evidence that such injections produce

a joyous result?

28. A petrolium distillate. He could have tried WD40.

It has a tube extention to inject the arasolized petroleum. Or even #2 grease with a grease gun. A more permanent solution could be expanding insulation foam.
