I'm a C/6 quad and constantly have to deal with my dick feeling like it's on fire whenever i get dysreflexia.In fact that's how i usually know a bout of dysreflexia is on it way,i'll start feeling either tingling (not fun tingling) or a slight burning sensation in my dick.Then once the dysreflexia hits,the slight burning turns into feeling like my penis was soaking in a jar of jalapeno pepper juice.Of course then the cold sweats come on and feeling my hearbeat in my brain until it seems only a matter of time before blood vessels in my brain explode.

I've seen urologists about this and doctors without getting any real answers to why this is.For whatever reason i've learned simply by fluke that sometimes when this happens,if i get in the shower and run steaming hot water on my dick for awhile,the burning and dysreflexia will eventually stop.Unfortunately getting in/out of the shower on my own isn't exactly easy or safe when nobody is around to help,but i risk it when this crap hits me bad enough.Plus,the hot water deal doesn't always work,i'd guess it does maybe 50-60% of the time.

I'm so damn tired of this and it's a real drag being a guy who hates his own dick,he used to be my best buddy before this stupid injury.When i had a GF i at least got some enjoyment from my former buddy,now it's just an annoyance in my life. :hug:

Sounds to me that you have a UTI or a stone of some sort. How do you drain your bladder? Cathing will irritate you and cause major problems. If you are doing this then I would suggest a suprapubic. Then you don't have to be cathed and you cut down the infections by 80%. Plus, your little buddy would work better!
