"My penis fell off but it regrew on my arm — now I’m a real man again"

A man who lost his penis due to a severe blood infection has had an artificial member surgically attached to his nether region — six years after it was designed by doctors.

“I feel like a real man again,” Malcolm MacDonald, 47, exclaimed in a new documentary detailing his extraordinary ordeal.

The mechanic — who resides in Norfolk, England — was left mortified back in 2010 when his penis “just dropped off onto the floor” after he suffered an infection in his perineum.

Surgeons subsequently manufactured a new penis for the father of two using a skin flap on his left arm. They planned to move the manmade member down to his pubic area but were forced to stop the operation due to a lack of oxygen in his blood.

MacDonald was left with the artificial phallus poking out of his forearm.

A second surgery to move the manhood between his legs was delayed for six years due to scheduling mix-ups, staff shortages and the COVID-19 pandemic.

MacDonald — who was profiled in The Post back in 2020 — eventually became used to having the appendage on his arm.

“People ask me about it when they see me in the pub, and of course people make jokes,” he stated at the time. “But I get it. It’s not every day you see a man with a penis on his arm. Of course, I see the funny side. I have to. I don’t have any other option.”

In the new documentary — “The Man With a Penis on his Arm” — MacDonald recalls helping an elderly lady retrieve an item from the top shelf at a supermarket, only to have the penis pop out from beneath his sleeve and nearly hit her on the head.
