GPT 3.5
Persistent erections, also known as priapism, is a medical condition where a man's penis remains erect for an extended period of time without sexual stimulation. This prolonged erection can be painful and is not relieved by ejaculation.
There are two main types of priapism: ischemic priapism, which is caused by a disruption in blood flow to the penis, and non-ischemic priapism, which is caused by an excess of blood flow to the penis.
Priapism is a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention, as it can lead to tissue damage and permanent erectile dysfunction if left untreated. Treatment usually involves draining the excess blood from the penis and addressing the underlying cause of the priapism.
