Brazilian Spider Venom and ED? Yes, There’s a Connection

Perhaps you may want to avail yourself of advice from Boston Medical Group when it comes to the Brazilian spider.

Maybe not.

We’re not really kidding.

This might make you a little uncomfortable, but through a discovery, it was determined that the venom of a Brazilian spider might have something in it that can treat erectile dysfunction.

Yes, it is a scary thought on the surface, and even scarier when looking at it more in-depth.

The technical name for the spider is “Phoneutria nigriventer.” Getting bitten by this spider can potentially cause an affliction that creates a very painful erection, that can last for hours, but in a very unhealthy fashion.

That prolonged erection can actually lead to impotence, but there is no doubt that some properties of the spider venom can help with ED, because it does something to promote increased blood flow to the penis.

So maybe you don’t want to get TOO scared. although I wouldn’t wander through the jungles of Brazil without taking at least a few precautions.

For questions related to all aspects of erectile dysfunction, feel free to contact Boston Medical Group at any of its 21 convenient offices located across the country.
