MMA fighter suffers horrific injury during sex
MMA is a pretty dangerous combat sport that can lead to some serious injuries. Who would figure that the most gruesome injury one fighter suffered actually happened out of the cage?
Ray Elbe, who competed on Season 9 of “The Ultimate Fighter,” announced on Saturday that he sustained one of the most horrifying injuries we can think of: a broken *****. No, the injury did not occur while he was fighting; it actually happened while he was having sex.
Elbe explained in a video [ame="http://youtu.be/Efsu6gi26Xo"]posted on his website[/ame] over the weekend that the injury occurred while he was having sex with his girlfriend in Malaysia on Dec. 3. He says his ***** broke when his girlfriend landed hard on him. Blood began spraying everywhere.
“I ended up fracturing my ***** bone … I tore the urinary tract, tore some membrane — as it happened you can imagine the shock and the horror that was going on,” Elbe said in the video. “I jumped up from the intimate moment, blood shooting out of my groin. I immediately tried to run to the shower, felt myself losing consciousness, tried to walk back to the bed at which point I collapsed, knocking myself out. I gave myself 10 stitches and fractured a couple teeth.”
Elbe says he tried treating himself after coming to, and that his girlfriend was frantic. She called emergency while he was laying naked on the floor in a pool of blood.
Elbe says he spent 13 days — including his birthday — in the hospital, and that he’s still using a catheter to urinate. He says he’s going back for a checkup on Dec. 19 where the catheter should be removed.
Elbe was obviously embarrassed about the injury, be he says he went public about it to raise awareness for it.
“This is probably the worst nightmare you can think of,” he said. “The biggest problem people suffering from this medical emergency encounter…is not immediately seeking medical attention.
“I hope my story helps someone with a similar injury in some way…as this experience is truly something you would never wish on anyone..lol,” Elbe wrote on his blog.
Over Twitter, Elbe described the experience as coming “as close to death as you can come without dying.”
Doctors expect him to make a full recovery.
We’ve seen other athletes get hurt during sex, but this is the first time I’ve ever heard of someone breaking their *****. I honestly didn’t even know that was possible, so I really do thank Elbe for sharing his story to help educate the public.
And here I was thinking sex was supposed to be an enjoyable experience …
