Is a rupture of an artery in the skin of the penis that goes straight to the middle of the scrotum affect health?

Question
Hello doctor, doctor, I am 22 years old this year and I recently had a slight collision, suddenly I saw an artery on the skin of the penis going straight to the middle of the scrotum. So, does breaking the artery on the skin of the penis going straight to the middle of the scrotum affect health? Ask your doctor for advice.

Answer
Hello, for the question of whether an artery on the skin of the penis that goes straight to the middle of the scrotum affects health? The doctor would like to answer as follows:
Minor trauma to the genitals can tear the skin and rupture the superficial blood vessels, usually the veins. Wounds with open skin and heavy bleeding need stitches to stop the bleeding and the stitches will heal in 7-10 days.
