Application of Phosphodiesterase Inhibitors in Individuals with Penile Artery Occlusion
Main Article Content
Abstract
Penile artery blockage is a vascular disorder that may result in erectile dysfunction, profoundly impacting a patient's quality of life and psychological health. This thorough analysis examines the epidemiology and clinical importance of penile artery blockage, highlighting its significant effect on patients' sexual health. The theoretical framework examines the definition of penile artery blockage, analyzes contributory risk factors, addresses probable consequences, and provides contemporary therapy techniques. The discussion section assesses the application of phosphodiesterase inhibitors as a treatment modality for patients with penile artery blockage, including insights into their mechanisms of action, effectiveness, and safety profile. The finding underscores the significance of a tailored strategy for managing this illness, with phosphodiesterase inhibitors as a beneficial alternative.
