If you experience an erection lasting more than 4 hours (a condition known as priapism) after taking Silagra 100 mg, it is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention.

What to Do:

Seek Immediate Medical Help: Contact your doctor or go to the nearest emergency room immediately. Priapism can lead to permanent damage to the penis if not treated promptly.

Do Not Attempt to Treat It Yourself: Avoid trying to resolve the issue on your own, as improper handling could cause further harm.

Why It Happens:

Priapism occurs when the blood in the penis is not able to drain properly, causing prolonged and painful erections. This can be caused by medications like Silagra 100 mg (which contains sildenafil, a PDE5 inhibitor) when they affect blood flow.

Treatment:

Doctors may use treatments such as ice packs, medications to reverse the erection, or in extreme cases, aspiration (removal of blood from the penis) to relieve the condition.

If this happens, prompt medical attention is essential to prevent long-term complications, including permanent erectile dysfunction.
