cavernous dysfunction is n’t a new problem , but there were n’t any effective treatments for the condition until the heart of the 20th hundred . Before then , desperate people turned to appealing trick , patent medicines , furore treatments , and convincing frauds to seek to get it up .
Here are the bad treatment ever .
1 . Chewing on modest pieces of roasted wolf member ( 13th century ) .
2 . Mixing phosphorous loony toons with orange - peel and gingerroot syrups , sometimes with a grain of strychnine , and drinking it ( mid - to tardy 1800s ) .
3 . shot of liquified guinea pig ballock ( 1890s ) .
4 . denigrate a plaster of earth acacia leaf and Christ’s - thorn in honey over the phallus ( 1700 BC ) .
5 . Eating the brains of manly sparrow mixed with cobnut and billy goat grease ( 11th century CE ) .
6 . Applying an electric stream to the spinal column , perineum , scrotum , and penis ( 1880s ) .
