Abnormal erection subjects Mombasa man to deep pain, sleepless nights for three weeks

Mombasa, Kenya: A man in Mombasa is in deep pain after suffering an abnormal erection which started three weeks ago.

The distraught man says he is unable to sleep and does not know what to do after modern and traditional medicine failed to heal him. 

The man whose identity will not be revealed over family matters is a contractor in Bamburi.

He moved to the coastal town in 2012 but his wife and three children live upcountry.

The man first sought medical attention at the Coast Provincial General Hospital (CPGH).

Health experts at CPGH directed him to undergo medical tests but he says there was no change.

So far, he has visited three witchdoctors and of them asked him to sleep on a goat skin sprinkled with some concoctions but his condition remained unchanged.

He has now resorted to attend a prayer meeting which he believes may heal him.

Despite suffering for three weeks, his wife and three children are not aware of the problem and he maintains that he doesn’t want them to know.

His friends who sought anonymity claim the man slept with another man’s wife who had been ‘set’.
