Speaking on GTV Ghana’s breakfast show, she indicated that sexual positions can affect the sexual health of both men and women and urged couples to be cautious about them.
“Then again, when you are practicing any sex position, you should be making sure that it is not causing any harm to you. Both male and female,” she stated.
She further narrated an incident where a patient reported to the hospital with a penile fracture as a result of a sex position. She further stated the patient had to go through a surgical procedure to be restored.
“I’m saying this because I’ve had a patient come in with a penile fracture. Penis can break because it has muscles, and those muscles can rapture. And the person was in so much pain and we had to repair it surgically,” she narrated.
The case has sparked discussions on social media, with many users expressing surprise at the severity of the injury and the potential risks associated with certain sexual activities.

Penile fractures are serious injuries that occur when the protective sheath around the penis, ruptures due to sudden or forceful bending. This can happen during vigorous sexual activity, particularly in positions where there is a risk of uncontrolled movement or pressure. Symptoms of a penile fracture include a popping sound, severe pain, immediate swelling, and bruising, and it requires urgent medical attention to prevent long-term complications like erectile dysfunction or permanent curvature.
