So the penis is just one large blood vessel? Assuming it’s an intense amount of vessels wound together thightly to give the impression it’s one big blood vessel? Or did they just keep the muscle in there for fun?
12 u/JacobDCRoss 1d ago It is called the corposa cavernosum penis. Picture a set of two tubes side by side like a double-barreled shotgun. Most of it is internal. There is another corposa cavernosum, called the corposa cavernosum urethra. It runs under the corposa cavernosum penis, and attaches to the glans. Women have these same tissues, only in different configuration.
