Winter, the summer…Maybe the spring? What months you NEED to be careful in the bed!

To mark the occasion of Valentine’s Day last weekend, Vice News and MedPage Today researched all the horrific ways that lovemaking can potentially go wrong. Their info comes from a review of about 450 sex injuries logged from 2009 to 2014!

 

Six things we learned from the research:

  1. Beware the dead of summer: February may be the month of love, but it ranks third in terms of reported sex injuries. The most dangerous month: July, followed by April. March is the tamest, relatively speaking.
  2. You’re far more likely to get injured another way: Sex injuries made up less than .02% of the 2.3 million injuries filed during the six-year span, though it’s believed that “most” sex injuries go unreported.
  3. Keep the pencil out of your you-know-what: Among the less expected objects that became lodged in an orifice: pencil, pool ball, toilet plunger handle. Other product categories that made a showing as causing the injury: “lawn mower, not specified,” go-carts, and coins.
  4. No part of the body is safe from harm: The most commonly injured areas are the pubic area and lower trunk, but there are certainly exceptions; one dental injury occurred when a 19-year-old’s sex swing broke loose from the ceiling. The database includes entries for parts like “arm, lower (not including elbow or wrist).”
  5. There are a heck of a lot of potential injury diagnoses: “Foreign body,” was the most common diagnosis, but burns, conjunctivitis, nerve damage, and poisoning also made the list.
  6. There is a silver lining: “None of the injuries were fatal.”

 

Do you have any bedroom injury stories??
