A popping or cracking sound, significant pain, immediate detumescence, and skin hematoma of various sizes are commonly associated with the event.<unk>  is generally considered a medical emergency, and emergency medical surgical repair is the usual treatment. Delay in seeking treatment increases the complication rate. Non-surgical approaches result in 10%-50% complication rates including erectile dysfunction, permanent<unk>  curvature, damage to the urethra, and pain during sexual intercourse.
