A man's penis almost withered up and died after he was bitten by a poisonous snake while urinating in a field.

The farmer, who had been caught short and was urinating in a field, waited for three hours before the pain became unbearable and he rushed to A&E.

Doctors inspected the 46-year-old's member which had become grossly swollen and was covered in blisters where the bite had made its impact.

According to the New England Journal of Medicine, the fang marks were obviously visible leading them to search for an antidote.

The incident, which happened in the Himalayas, shocked doctors who probed the man for information on what the creature looked like.

He identified the serpent by using the name 'gunas' which was then discovered to be a Levantine viper.
