The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Apparently a limp but attractive penis is worth more than an ugly one—9 million dollars more to be exact.
That is the round sum that an Illinois jury awarded to John Henry Howard, 53, a former erectile dysfunction patient turned plaintiff against Boston Men’s Health Center Inc.—a company counter-intuitively based in Altamont Springs, Florida, but which operates 22 ED clinics across the United States relying heavily on radio advertising.
Howard, a truck driver, testified he went to Boston Medical Group’s Atlanta clinic for help with erectile dysfunction in 2006.
He was give a 6 months supply of a drug and told to hypodermically inject it into his penis. (Now this was a guy highly motivated to have an erection! The “little blue pill” seems a tad more attractive at this point.)
Howard’s use of the injected drug led to priaprism, a prolonged erection for more than four hours—which can cause penile damage and scaring.
Boston Medical Group argued that Howard disregarded their instructions to immediately seek medical treatment in the event of a prolonged erection.
You know the warning at the end of the Viagra commercials?
Apparently, Howard was so thrilled with the immediate results (and what man with ED and his wife or girlfriend wouldn’t be) that he failed to seek medical attention after his first injection into the one eyed monster resulted in a mega erection lasting 48 hours.
At this point (a probably exhausted) Howard finally saw a doctor, but by then it was too late to avoid permanent cosmetic damage to the critical member.
Now Howard is stuck with a less than attractive penis—but then again nine million dollars buy’s a lot of consolation—even after a 1/3 contingent fee for Howard’s attorney.
