Hi guys,

just wanted to add that I also have numbness issues in the penis and scrotum.

out of interest, do you guys sit for long periods?

They think it's to do with how im sitting, a new cushion didnt help, but i've been referred to wheelchair services to see if we can alter my current cushion. my neurologist has also referred me for an mri scan to see if it's anything in...

hi,

Well, i think i have bursitis, however i didn't think that could lead to numbness of the penis, however i'll ask a doctor.
