Man Says Impotence Caused By Flea Bites

They said that because of the fleas they still suffer from rashes 2 years later

A court case has been instituted by two men who claim that because they stayed in a hotel called the Extended Stay America Hotel in Hampton, Virginia in the United States one of them now suffers from erectile dysfunction!  Not only is the hotel being sued but also the company Travelocity which booked their hotel rooms.

Man Says Impotence Caused By Flea Bites

The men claim that they were repeatedly bitten by fleas at the hotel which advertises itself as being pet friendly and that there was even animal waste underneath their beds. They said that because of the fleas they still suffer from rashes two years later which has caused one of them erectile dysfunction and as a result he is unable to have sex.

The men are suing for millions of dollars and claim that both the hotel and the booking agents were aware of the problem and should have taken steps to remedy it before letting out the rooms again. At Ukmedix News this is the first time that we have come across any evidence that flea bites could cause erectile dysfunction but there is considerable evidence that extreme mental distress is linked to sexual problems.

Stress, anxiety and other problems which make it difficult for men to relax are known to have a significant impact on erectile function. Therefore it is unlikely that the flea bites themselves caused the erection problems of the plaintiff but the resultant stress could have been a factor.

America which is famous for huge payouts for negligence sometimes attracts opportunistic legal cases which the plaintiffs hope will be settled out of court and which the lawyers promote because they are getting a cut too.

Ukmedix News will be following this case to see what evidence the lawyers will bring forward to show the link between erectile dysfunction and flea bites.
