Man hospitalised after too much m@sturbation

It was all fun and games for a 20-year-old Swiss man until everything went south. This is as he was hospitalized after suffering spontaneous pneumomediastinum (SPM) during strong m@sturbating.

He survived after being admitted to an intensive care unit with an excruciating lung injury brought on by overly aggressive m@sturbation, according to a new study in the May journal of Radiology Case Reports.

He reportedly rushed himself to Cantonal Hospital in Winterthur after experiencing “crunching” pain and a shortness of breath amid his solo stroking session.

According to the New York Post, successive X-rays revealed that the man was suffering from spontaneous pneumomediastinum – a painful but typically “benign disease” whereby air leaks from the lung and becomes lodged in the rib cage, the Journal of Thoracic Disease reported.

ScienceDirect described the autoerotic emergency as “a rare condition that usually affects young men in their 20s”.

Researchers added that smokers were at an increased risk of SPM, which could be brought on by violent coughing, excessive vomiting or strenuous physical exercise.

The man denied doing intense exercise but admitted to some rough solo sexercise, lead study authors Dr Nikola Rajic and Dr Christian Schandl reported.
