Spider venom may treat erectile dysfunction
A Brazilian spider may hold the key to curing erectile dysfunction.

A pharmaceutical company created a synthetic version of the wandering spider’s venom and says it’s getting good results in early testing.

The following testing phase will focus on patients who have had prostate removal.

If successful, the treatment could provide an alternative for those not responding to current medications.

But there’s a caution. A bite from the spider can cause pain and high blood pressure.

And to put it delicately, it may be too effective against erectile dysfunction.

Any Volunteers??

The wandering spider is a known menace and resultant boners from bites have been out there for a long time.

Being bitten by a spider isn't likely to give me a Woody.

I saw a cartoon related to that some years ago picturing Spider Man sitting on the side of the bed wearing nothing but his mask and holding his head in his hands. The woman was covered in "webulation" and saying, "Don't worry...it happens sometimes." Razz Razz

Searched, but I couldn't find it.

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24
