A man was taken to a Bangkok hospital with "coconut sized genitalia" after injecting his penis with olive oil. It was done to enlarge his penis, but caused an infection so severe that his testicles swelled to a horrific size. The 50-year-old man suffered a cut to his penis six months ago, but refused to seek medical attention until it became infected. To make matters worse, doctors also discovered that the man had cancer which required his penis to be amputated. 

The olive oil injection might not be directly responsible for the man getting cancer, but everything—from the injection and injury, to the amputation—all sound incredibly painful.
