In a bizarre event, an Irish man was found injecting himself with his own semen to cure himself of back pain for 18 months. Doctors were baffled to discover this man’s weird home remedy when he turned up to the hospital with a swollen arm in addition to his chronic back condition.

While he mainly complained about his back pain, his arm was found to be swollen with the semen that leaked into surrounding tissues from failed injections. The man revealed his secret about the 'semen cure' and admitted to the doctors about this bizarre treatment which he had been experimenting for a year-and-a-half. This was entirely his idea to perform this treatment without any medical consent or advice.
