What Is Viagra/Sildenafil Used For? What is sildenafil used for? Generic sildenafil (and brand-name Viagra) is a medication for the treatment of ED, Raynaud’s phenomenon
A clinical trial found that modified-release sildenafil reduced the frequency of Raynaud’s attacks in patients with limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc), a type of scleroderma. Raynaud’s phenomenon is a
Sildenafil, treatment for Raynaud's, also known as Viagra.

I suspect that sildenafil citrate works for Raynaud’s phenomenon as it does for erectile dysfunction: as a potent peripheral vasodilator. Regardless, sildenafil citrate is a safe and effective treatment for Raynaud’s phenomenon. I would like to initiate an interest in using sildenafil citrate to treat patients with Raynaud’s phenomenon
Currently there are no reports of widespread unwanted side-effects among sufferers of Raynaud’s treated with sildenafil. There are effective treatments for Raynaud’s, and it could be a sign of

This study evaluated the effectiveness and tolerability of sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase inhibitor, in patients with Raynaud's phenomenon resistant to vasodilatory therapy. Sildenafil significantly reduced the frequency, duration, and severity of Raynaud attacks and improved capillary blood flow velocity.
Comments
Great story though....
To the commenter (Sex4lf57?) who said that Viagra doesn't work this way, I'll toss at least a cautionary comment or two.
Viagra is derived from a medication (sildenafil citrate) that was originally designed for cardiac patients. To prevent stress on the heart (that can cause a heart attack), the chemical causes the capillaries in the body to open as wide as possible, allowing the blood to flow freely with less pressure being applied by the heart.
As such, it also opens the capillaries in the corpus cavernosum of the penis, which leads to an erection. Now, there's a 'valve' that limits blood flow to the penis, so as to allow urinary function, without urine being able to seep into the passages where sperm travels. When a guy urinates, the semen passages are cut off - and when he is erect, the urinary tract is cut off, because the urethra (tube in the penis) does double duty.
When there is sufficient erotic stimulus to cause that 'valve' to switch the seminal tract to 'open', it also opens the sphincters that control blood flow to the penis, so that the capillaries can inflate completely.
During the years (nearly 60) that sildenafil citrate has been in use in cardiac patients (under another drug-name), it was noticed that when a patient was taking the drug, he was more susceptible (at an older age) to more-solid erections. Gradually, the doctors prescribing the drug got 'field reports' from their patients, and forwarded them to the company that makes the drug. Its use as an ED drug is secondary, and took a long time for FDA approval to market such a drug to non-cardiac patients.
When the person taking the drug is in their late teens or early 20's, and has a quite healthy circulatory system - and is around a near-continual erotic stimulus, as is the main character in this story - the effect CAN be a near-perpetual erection. Even the attempts to diminish it by masturbation won't necessarily cause it to go down, when there is a hotly-desired woman present and making subtle erotic comments to the male.
