You may be able to feel the scar tissue (plaque) through the skin or you may have pain in a specific part of your penis as the scar tissue forms. <b>During an erection, your penis can bend up, down or to the side depending on the location of the scar.<\/b> Some men with this condition don\u2019t have a curve, but might have an area of indentation or \u201chourglass\u201d appearance.<\/p>\n<p><b>Most men don\u2019t have perfectly straight erections. Just because there is a little curve in your penis, that doesn\u2019t mean you have Peyronie\u2019s disease. Men who have had a curvature their whole lives do not have Peyronie\u2019s disease.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Difference Between Peyronie\u2019s Disease And Penile Curvature?<\/h2>\n<p>Peyronie\u2019s disease is one type of penile curvature that happens to adults. Some men can be born with penile curvature and this is called congenital curvature or chordee. It is not caused by scar tissue, and the condition does not change over time. It might not be noticeable until after puberty when a man begins having more regular erections.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Symptoms Of Peyronie\u2019s Disease<\/h2>\n<p>The primary symptom is a considerable curvature of the penis \u2013 the penis bends, either sideways, downward, or upward, depending on where the plaques are.<\/p>\n<p><b> Plaques<\/b> \u2013 scar tissue which is felt under the skin of the penis. It feels like a band of hard tissue. For some, it may feel like flattened lumps.<\/p>\n<p><b> Erectile dysfunction<\/b> \u2013 men with Peyronie\u2019s disease may have difficulties in either getting or maintaining an erection.<br \/>\n<b> Penis length<\/b> \u2013 Peyronie\u2019s disease can eventually result in a shortening of the penis.<\/p>\n<p><b> Pain<\/b> \u2013 patients may experience pain when they have an erection, and\/or during orgasm. However, in the majority of cases, this gradually goes away after a few months (without any treatment).<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Does Peyronie\u2019s Disease Hurt?<\/h2>\n<p>Yes, Peyronie\u2019s disease can be painful. This is most common in the acute (early) phase of the disease. However, pain may continue with erections even in the chronic phase. The severity of it varies depending on the person.<\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>How Does The Penis Work?<\/h2>\n<p>Your penis has two roles: to carry urine and to carry sperm. There are three tubes inside it: the urethra, which carries urine from the bladder and through the penis, and two tubes called the corpora cavernosa that fill with blood to make the penis erect. All three are wrapped together by a tough fibrous sheath known as the tunica albuginea. When you\u2019re having intercourse, the blood flowing to your penis makes it straight, stiff and hard, and able to penetrate. Semen then exits through the urethra after orgasm. This process is called ejaculation.<\/p>\n<p><b>Peyronie\u2019s disease affects the shape and size of the penis, but not urination or ejaculation.<\/b><\/p>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Lifestyle Changes<\/h2>\n<p>Lifestyle changes may reduce the risk of ED related to Peyronie\u2019s disease. These include:<\/p>\n<p><b><br \/>\nQuitting smoking<\/p>\n<p>Reducing alcohol consumption<\/p>\n<p>Stopping drug misuse<\/p>\n<p>Exercising regularly<br \/>\n<\/b><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/asgargroup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Online-Sexologist-Doctor-consultation-for-sexual-problems-in-Chennai-Alappuzha-Kottayam-Duabi-Oman-UAE-US-Ernakulam-Tamilnadu-Kollam-Kerala-Asgar-Ayurveda-Sex-Clinic-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A person with ED will often see improvement after making lifestyle changes.
