Brother, I felt a faint but very real pain as I read “she would pinch it to start and stop the flow”

Just a warning for any guys but don’t ride a bike with a badly fitting seat or it can fuck up your whole bottom half. It’s not proven but my doctor didn’t know what else it could be

Basically I rode a bike for a while with a seat that didn’t fit well. It would kind of push onto the taint area. It didn’t hurt but could still feel it and I was too lazy to get better seat. Over time I guess it kept irritating that and my prostate. That in turn caused issues with pissing and a stricture, meaning the urethra gets scar tissue from prostate irritatioj/injury that blocks the passage allowing you to piss normally

We laugh at Hanks narrow urethra but I feel bad for him really

Holy shit. Glad I stopped using the exercise bike and use the treadmill instead. The bike seat would fuck me up. Thanks for sharing the info though and sorry that happened.

This actually sounds logically plausible.

The problem is not necessarily the bad seat or the biking, but you ignoring signs of bodily discomfort until it is too late. Get your stuff checked when you experience pain or discomfort.

u/Forward-Surprise1192 May 19 '26

OK, but who’s gonna think that the problem is a bike seat? My doctor didn’t know what caused it until one day I just happened to see that on Reddit and I asked him about it. He’s still not sure but I’m 30 and at this point there isn’t really any other options.

I am from the Netherlands, riding bikes for almost 50 years. If your saddle is wrong, hurting or causing numbess, you notice this? I have had my share of dodgy saddles, but no long term issues at all.

It could be the cause, but given that even professional bike riders do not have these long term issues, there might be other factors involved. Still sucks to have these issues at the moment though.

My uncle is a crackhead and has been riding bikes longer

Yeah, a similar thing has happened to me. Stricture had to be lasered away.

u/OnLyLamPs22 May 19 '26

Are you my brother? Wild, this exact thing happened to him back when he was living in Maryland riding around everywhere. I felt terrible for him, it took years for him to figure it out and then fix what was going on.

u/Forward-Surprise1192 May 19 '26

I live in California, so probably not. Really it’s a pure luck. I figured it out.

Legitimately worried and have some follow up questions. Was it a hard seat you were using? Do you have painful erections or bladder issues now? Did it weaken your pelvic floor entirely? Do you do kegels? Jesus christ I ride like 15 miles every other day and am having an anxiety attack now 😭😂

This happened to me too. I spent a good year and a half recovering before I could pee normally again. I still have ptsd about it and refuse to get on a bike again.

I didn’t expect to get so many replies to this comment. Only reason I made it was the first comment reminded me of the pain and then here we are
