Handgrip Strength May Predict Erectile Dysfunction Risk<\/figcaption><\/figure> According to new findings published in Renal and Neurology News<\/em>, men with a stronger grip may have a lower risk of developing erectile dysfunction.<\/p>\n

A study on erectile dysfunction<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a study of 1,708 men in South Korea, researchers found that a man\u2019s chances of developing erectile dysfunction decreased by 18% for each 5-kilogram increase in handgrip strength. Moderate to the vigorous physical activity of as also associated with a decreased risk of erectile dysfunction\u2014by about 25%.<\/p>\n

Two other factors that raised the risk of erectile dysfunction were age and increased hemoglobin A1c, which is associated with diabetes. Diabetes has long been associated with erectile dysfunction because the disease damages nerves and blood vessels.<\/p>\n

Treating erectile dysfunction<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most men don\u2019t need to know how strong their hand grip is to know if they\u2019ve got erectile dysfunction. By definition, it means that the penis can\u2019t get hard enough to obtain or maintain an erection for sexual intercourse.<\/p>\n

So, what\u2019s a man to do who has erectile dysfunction? Make an appointment with your doctor.<\/p>\n

There are several FDA-approved erectile dysfunction drugs that you can get with a prescription. The top two, Viagra and Cialis, have been found to work for more than 80% of men. Although they do have side effects, they are usually mild enough that men keep taking the Viagra and Cialis.<\/p>\n

Some of these side effects include flushing, headache, hearing loss, indigestion and visual impairment.<\/p>\n

If you think you\u2019re ready to try Viagra or Cialis for your erectile dysfunction, be sure to discuss any current or past health concerns, as well as medications you\u2019re currently taking. Some medications, such as nitrates, can interact with erectile dysfunction drugs, causing a sudden drop in blood pressure, which can be very dangerous and even deadly.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s probably a good time to get a full physical, as sometimes erectile dysfunction is a warning sign of other underlying health issues, such as diabetes or heart disease.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
