The man in question was reportedly a 35-year-old Hispanic who visited the emergency department of Bronx Care Hospital in New York City, USA, for three days of intolerable penile and scrotal pain. At the time of my visit, my penis was swollen, bleached, necrotic, and ulcerated, and I was in a state of severe pain in the groin (base of the thigh) and right leg.

As a result of examining the medical history of this man, it was found that he had given intravenous injections of drugs, so when asked during the interview, he said, 'Twice in the last two weeks, cocaine was put into the vein on the back of the penis. I injected it. '

The man refused surgery to remove necrotic skin tissue, and after receiving antibiotics for five days, refused to enter the drug rehabilitation station and disappeared.

The doctors who reported this case report said they didn't know why the male penis was darkened, saying, 'Stop cocaine is the only cure, so ask drug addicts for help. You should counsel and recommend a drug rehabilitation program. '
