Testing

Erectile dysfunction (ED) can affect men of all ages. As the most common medical issue that men experience during sex, ED can impact otherwise healthy relationships. If you cannot achieve or maintain an erection, it is important to consider if the problem qualifies as erectile dysfunction in the truest sense.

Occasional issues with the inability to achieve an erection are normal. However, if the problem is frequent or you often fail to achieve a firm erection, you may be suffering from ED. Any progressive reoccurrence of ED is the first sign that you should contact CLEAR Immediate Care for testing.

Causes of Erectile Dysfunction

There are several potential causes of ED. The penis relies on adequate blood flood into two chambers in order to achieve a firm erection. If, for any reason, blood flow is impeded, it can result in erectile dysfunction. Another issue that leads to ED is damage to the nerves that control erection function.

It is also worth noting that ED is often a secondary sign of potentially life-threatening conditions. Hardened or blocked arteries, high blood pressure, diabetes and heart disease are just some of the conditions that initially manifest through symptoms, including the inability to achieve or sustain an erection.

Finally, psychological problems such as stress, depression and anxiety can make it difficult for some men to get a firm erection. These issues are treatable, but it is important to seek testing to rule out any of the other conditions associated with ED. Knowing the root cause of erectile dysfunction is the first step toward effective relief.

Despite my being mildly irritated with the state of healthcare in this country, the front desk and doctor were patient and amicable in their service. I appreciate their patience and rapid response times in getting me on a telehealth appointment. Some real professionals.

I could not hear out of one ear, and they were able to take care of it very quickly and professionally. It’s great being able to hear out of both ears again after several weeks!

Office appointment made via Telemedicine. Very courteous front end staff. They comforted and communicated start to finish. Met with Ekta Patel and she unlike recent experiences with health care listened to my concerns about personal health and rise in blood pressure. We grabbed labs and she set me in a course of well being. She was very knowledgeable and compassionate. In short – I did not feel like s number in a waiting room. Ekta Patel is what a GP should aim and look foward to a long and healthy relationship.
