A penile fracture, which is a tear in the covering of the penis, is considered a urological emergency and usually requires surgery to avoid long-term complications. While some sources suggest immediate surgery, others acknowledge that it can be performed within 24-48 hours. Delaying surgery can increase the risk of complications
