A 15-year-old boy who inserted a knotted USB cable into his penis ended up needing surgery after it got stuck inside him.

The unidentified teenager, of London, told doctors he inserted the cable to 'measure the length of his penis'.

But his experiment went wrong when the already-knotted cable got stuck, with both ends of the USB left hanging out of his member.

The boy made several attempts to remove it himself but this resulted in him urinating a large amount of blood, prompting his family to take him to A&E.

Hospital staff also failed to pull out the cable using special tools due to the position of the knot, doctors detailed in the journal Urology Case Reports.  

The boy was urgently transferred to University College Hospital London for further treatment. 

He asked to be examined without his mother present, and confessed to staff that he inserted the cable to measure his penis out of sexual curiosity. 

After an X-ray revealed the exact size and positions of the knot, the teen was sent to surgery.

In an effort to remove the cable, surgeons cut lengthways into his bulbospongiosus muscle, an area between the genitals and the anus. 

Medics managed to extract the knot through the incision and then cut it free from the rest of the cable.

Once the knot was removed, the remaining two pieces of the cable were pulled out the opening of his penis. 

There were no complications in his recovery and he was discharged from hospital the next day.

What is sounding? And why can it be dangerous? 

Sounding is when men insert items into the opening of the penis to enhance their sexual pleasure.

It usually involves specially designed tools made from glass or metal.

Doctors at clinic International Andrology London said there has been a ‘dramatic increase’ in the number of men having urethral problems due to sounding as men ‘look to expand their sexual activities and enhance their sexual experiences’ 

Men interested in the practice should understand the risks and purchase equipment from reputable businesses and ensure they do it hygienically.

But they warned the practice can damage the sensitive tissue in the urethral pathway, which releases urine and sperm.

It can also lead to a lack of bladder control and infection.

And the penis and urethra may even require surgery or implants to rebuild sensitive tissue.
