DOCTORS trying to remove a metal penis ring from a man's testicles after it got stuck for "a couple of days" were forced to call in firefighters with a GRINDER.

Firefighters said the man's privates were "swollen and a funny colour" after the sex aid stopped the circulation.

“To put it in layman’s terms, he tried to put his veg in the ring as well but it stopped the circulation and became stuck", a fireman told the Evening Standard.

The man reportedly contacted emergency services after attempting to cut the ring off himself.

Doctors working in A&E at King George Hospital, Ilford, were also unable to remove the sex aid and called in the firefighters at about 2am on Thursday.

Crews had to bring in a metal cutter, normally used to free people from crashed cars, to release the man's privates.

In February Sun Online revealed that firefighters had been called to help a kinky man who got his penis stuck in a bottle in Fifty Shades of Grey style emergency.

The sheepish chaps are not the only one to land themselves in trouble after trying out kinky antics, with saucy rescues costing the taxpayer £830,000 in the past five years.
