My husband has venous insufficiency in both legs, & now has an appointment with a urologist to check his penis


My husband has venous insufficiency in both legs, & now has an appointment with a urologist to check his penis
What will the doctor do to diagnose venous insufficiency in the penis? Is it painful? He's nervous about it, and I can't find a website that explains how they check.

When he walks in the exam room only the doctor will be there and will ask him to drop his pants.

Now comes the difficult part

He will ask him to masturbate to get an erection and will leave the room.

Your husban will be sitting in a chair if he has bad blood flow to each legs and not just the penis.

So it will not be as awkard like it would be if he was standing and using his hand to get an arousal.

Then the doctor will come back in and do a stiffness test seeing how ridgid his penis is in holding up away from the body.
Then do a sensitivity test of the skin on the head and along the shaft of the penis.

If problem is found he will be given medication to improve the blood flow to the penis.

And if the leg blood flow is found to be a major cause will send him to get a test done to try and detect where the blockage is
