This is an unfortunate and tragic case, and a warning to boys about the dangers of playing sports in general. Isn't this part of the XY's delicately called "the penis", because it is an important functional organ for men, and also the most vulnerable part because it lies outside, should be carefully preserved. To minimize damage from unintended accidents during leisure activities after hours, boys should do the following:

Choose pants that fit and are comfortable.

A pair of underwear that is elastic, tight enough for comfortable movement, but not too loose and able to hold the boy in place is important. You should avoid wearing pants that are too stretchy and do not have a tight fitting function while playing sports. Loosening up or wearing pants that are too loose may make you feel comfortable at first, but it also increases your risk of a crash. Even without external agents, sometimes colliding with your own thighs, limbs can cause damage!

The protections on the market for sportsmen include athletic cups, jockstrap... You might not be familiar with it at first, but when a crash happens, you'll wish you'd invested in something like So.

Guys who play sports and have been in an accident are probably familiar with the nausea that accompanies an accident. However, if the nausea persists and is accompanied by symptoms such as headache and loss of sensation, there is a high chance that the injury is more serious than it looks, and it is time to seek medical help.
