Question:

If a man breaks his back and is paralysed can he feel his penis?


Answers:

The penis is innervated by the sacral nerves at levels S2-S4. This is very low in your back. Almost any transection of the cord is going to block nerve transmission from those levels. So no, you can't feel your penis. Moral of this story- don't break your back.
