128. Pills, Pumps, P Injections Easily Explained, Steve’s Journey Know how these 3 works
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
Wednesday Mar 22, 2023
For today’s episode, we’ll hear back from Steve - the poet who didn’t know it.
Our previous episode with Steve was about his poems, now, we brought him back to hear about what he did to his penis post-op.
Did he use pills? Pumps? Or penile injections?
Well, he used all three! All powered by his guts and his desire to recover.
You see, Steve, isn’t a patient of Melissa nor Dr Jo’s but through his hard work, belief, and courage to do it - he used all of those three - pills, pumps, and p injections.
He first used the pills, then the pumps (still using it!) and the p injections.
Steve asked Melissa whether it’s ok to use pumps even if his function is 95% back. Yes, is what Melissa answered! Why? Listen to Melissa as she explains it. Melissa will reiterate how important these three things are in your recovery or rehab.
So, if you’ve been wondering how these three things work together - Melissa has the answers!
What can the pills do to the penis? Why do you need to keep using the pump to exercise it? Why use injections??
If you want brief, easy to understand answers - listen to the podcast now through the button below. And we suggest that you bookmark this episode - to remind you that these things are all based on science, not movies. ;)
Enjoy listening!
