So, before you all take the piss, ( you can in a bit ) has anyone ever done this?
Backstory - out on my road bike the other day and my little man went numb. It's done this before, thought nothing of it. Rode a further 15 miles say and stopped for a rest. Felt a funny wee sensation and looked and well there was blood coming through my bibs. Was in middle of nowhere so had to ride back. Bleeding stopped about ten minutes in to the return journey.
Pee'd some blood when I got back during the first couple of toilet visits and that was it. Nothing since. Everything appears to be in working order now.
I'd done some reading online ( know a load of it is bollocks ) but obviously there was some pressure on my member and this may have caused it to go numb and subsequently bleed.
Not ridden since, not been docs. I unfortunately don't ride thousand of miles each year , this was just a quick blast out on the road bike.
Any advice? I will go the docs...
Nothing funny in that! 😯
One of my mates GFs had a bit of an incident and landed hard on the top-tube with her lady bits - told me it went black from the bruising and thought she'd need a vaginoplasty 😆
Rob, how long have you been waiting to use that word in a sentence?
Nose of the saddle up? Drop the nose.
Possibly move it forward a cm or two.
Yes been numb but never bled. Better saddle position sorted it.
One hundred - thanks , I'll have a look at my saddle position.
What saddle is it? Spend lots of money on a proper saddle with a groove and go to a lbs for proper fitting.
As above, correct saddle position.
Next time it goes numb, stop for a break and a shake.
Make sure you see a doctor just to rule out things.
Ditto play with your saddle. Betterbe safe than sorry. Are you ok now? No problems with painful erections?
One of the guys we used to ride with regularly had a big off on a solo ride (China Pig at the back of Box Hill). He landed hard on the saddle and thought everything was OK but painful. A minute or two later his shorts were wet and when he checked he was pissing blood out of his member. He was still doing the same as he got to A&E. Apparently he'd burst a blood vessel. Ouch!!
Go to the doctors pronto, get it checked. Don't mess with those areas.
Bellend-saddle-wall interface. You figure it out. After explaining to two line managers,company hr, a reception nurse, two matrons and a cock surgeon, I was allowed to leave with a MASSIVE helmet and bloody piss but no surgery.
So that happened. Pissing razorblades exists.
Seek help. Use brakes.
Edit: Job allows DH runs on lunch. Lucky i suppose
The only time I've heard something similar was about a guy who landed very hard on his top tube, and apparently he needed a catheter permanently after that.
Yours doesn't sound anywhere near as bad, but definitely get to the doctor to talk about it.
Def go to the docs even if symptoms stop just to check that there's no underlying damage.
As an aside, I've not done what you appear to have done but I did suffer a saddle/ball interface when I screwed up a jump years ago: I bent the saddle rails with a testicle. That caused a bit of bleeding and scar tissue in awkward places. 15 years later and the thought it it still makes my eyes water.
You need to go to your Doc,this may be an underlying health problem and nothing to do with riding a bike.
You don't get symptoms like this just through riding a bike!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'd get it checked out asap, but then I have grown rather attached to it.
Sat on my gonads once. Baggy boxers and Bermuda short's were a bad idea lol.
Had a cock - tree interface in a crash a year or so back. Was pissing blood for awhile but no permanent damage. Dear god I got myself to the docs fast though!
Thanks for the replies.
Not happened since but I've not ridden since, just resting it from riding, but either way there's been no blood thankfully.
No painful erections, so hoping it was a one off but will get the docs on Monday and get them to check it all out.
You see, people wonder why I like recumbents...
Several times. It still works...
Left the track, hit a rock and came to a dead stop to OTB on the DH bike when racing in Pra Loup. Saddle caught me a glancing blow on my way past. Skinned/grazed my member, full length scab. Eye watering. Queue several French families moving away as I lay groaning and clutching in a dry river bed.
Another dead stop into a peat bog, stem slammed into my pubic bone, trapping my bell end in between, with a smack, on the way over the bars. Landed in a deep puddle and just lay there in excruciating pain. Result was what my Mrs described as a 'trouser snake bite' double blood blister on my helmet.
Been fine on the road bike though!
Here's a weird one. EVERY time I wear bibs I get a numb chap.
Stopped wearing them, no numbness.
Win.
Never had anything that bad, but used to get the numb feeling on longer rides. Did some research and bought a Specialized saddle which sorted it. They all have a groove to relieve pressure and have a 30 day exchange so you can try diiferent styles, widths. Never had any problems since.
My bruv, when he was a bit younger, had a huge top tube / goolies interface type accident which resulted in his nads disappearing up into his abdomen.
When they hadn't returned to resume normal service the following morning, he went to a&e, barely able to walk and with epic bruising.
He was swiftly admitted and had to have an operation to restore the nads into their normal resting place. Hilariously, for everyone else, his scrotum had to be stitched to his leg and made walking challenging. The bruising was the worst the nurses had ever seen and he enjoyed being able to display his private bits without fear of arrest.
To cap off the amusement for me, when the stiches were taken out a knot got stuck inside his ball bag requiring a further minor surgery. Joy.

Don't waste time on stupid forums like this, go to your GP.
Been the docs.. The Doc done a wee test; nothing of interest found , but to speak to a urologist to see if this is normal and will advise!

Quirrel; I don't fancy being on the sex pest register....can you be on it twice anyhow?! ( joke....)
^ when you are talking blood - was it like that horrible internet video - One man one screwdriver the sequel to one man one jar?
Quirrel....I've not heard of that, never mind seen it....
Once had injury leading to blood dripping from the third eye. Nothing prepares you for the sight of claret exiting at that particular point of your body.
Hope it was a one off fella. Hopefully the urologist will set your mind at rest
Uretha update! Went the hospital last week and received a vigorous inspection of my bits, which was a bonus on the NHS!!
😯
Doctor then said he wanted to inspect my prostate which I was t expecting! 😯 no issues and the letter I received today said it was " smooth and small" which is a good thing! I'll put that as my Twitter bio!!!
To rule any kidney / bladder issues out, the consultant needs to inspect these...x-Ray or scan I thought....nope...a ca,era down the Japs Eye!! So wince for me next Thursday morning when this is taking place...
Consultant thinks all ok, but to be fair to the NHS I've had a very thorough check up!!
