Why is having an erection that lasts for more than 6 hours dangerous?!
Question: Viagra says to consult medical help if you use their product and your erection lasts 6 hours.
Answers:
The blood that stays in the penis while erect needs to oxygenate like all other blood, but if it stays in the penis it cannot. As result it could be "old" and cause the penis to experience permanent damage.

coz it can break if it's more than 6 hrs!
Cause as they say God gave men a mind and a P@#$%, but not enough blood to support both at the same time. Which means no blood will get to your mind as long as you're in that state.
You may get crushed to death - by the stampede of frustrated women.
By medical help they mean hiring an escort for you. and its probally not the best idea to have an erection for 6 hours because from my experience its going to start to become pretty painful. And you wont be able to urinate if you have an erection which is a problem.
Priapism is the occurrence of any persistent erection for more than four hours duration in the absence of sexual stimulation. Priapism is named after Priapus, the Greek god of fertility, and the son of Aphrodite, the goddess of love. He was apparently an ugly, satyrlike man with enormous genitalia. He was the god of gardens, bees, goats, and sheep. According to the story, Priapus had a huge tongue, a fat belly, and his penis was so large that he was restricted to the position of scarecrow in the fields.
How Is Priapism Treated?
The goal of all treatment is to make the erection go away and preserve future erectile function. Treatment options include:
Ice packs: Ice applied to the penis and perineum may reduce swelling.
Surgical ligation: Used in cases where an artery has been ruptured, the doctor will ligate (tie off) the artery that is causing the priapism in order to restore normal blood flow.
Intracavernous injection: Used for low-flow priapism, during this treatment drugs known as alpha-agonists are injected into the penis. This causes the veins to narrow, reducing blood flow to the penis and easing swelling to the area.
Surgical shunt: Also used for low-flow priapism, a shunt is a passageway that is surgically inserted into the penis to divert the blood flow and allow circulation to return to normal.
Aspiration: After numbing the penis, doctors will insert a needle and drain blood from the penis to reduce pressure and swelling.
If you suspect that you are experiencing priapism, you should not attempt to treat it yourself. Instead, seek emergency care as soon as possible.
