Even if it was, night-wood would keep the necrotization under control, I'd think... Hey, good luck, buddy!
It is true. It's teh reason men get errections in their sleep.

The flacid penis simply doesn't contain enough blood to delived adiquate oxyyegn to penile tissue. Errections are key in penile health.

I never went on to the part where it said how long it took for major damage to occur, but unless your SO doen't mind possible future sexual problems- as far as errections go-I'd advise you to keep it up.
