Peyronie's Disease and Abnormally Bent Penis - Causes, Symptoms and Treatment Options

WHAT IS PEYRONIE'S DISEASE?

Peyronie's disease consists of hard, fibrous tissue, called plaques, developing within the penile shaft. The plaques are hard, thickened and stiff areas, actually a kind of internal scarring. In this fibroid tissue also calcium compounds can accumulate, making the plaques even harder.

The Peyronie's disease is also called cavernositis, and also sometimes plastic induration. There is probably a chronic inflammation process that leads to this scarring.

The thickened area has less blood flow than normal penile tissue, and do not fill with blood and swell as the normal spongy areas in the inside of the penis. Therefore the penis swells more at the opposite side, and gets a curvature towards the side containing the plaques when erected.

If the plaques are found at several places, more complex deformations will develop. The abnormal bending, twisting or swelling within the penis, often also lead to painful erections.

Any man from the age of 18 and upwards can develop Peyronie's disease. The average age of men suffering from Peyronie`s disease is 50.

THE SYMPTOMS AND CONSEQUENCES OF THE CONDITION

The three main characteristics of cavernositis are:

- One or more small hard lumps underneath the skin, or a continuous hard, stiff and thickened area.

- Abnormal bent or crooked penis when erect. All penises have some curvature, but by this disease, the penile bend increases, and one may get a very curved penis. The penis may be bent as a banana or in an angular fashion. The penile bending is most often up, but may be down, to the left side, to right or sloping.

-The bending is usually to the same side as that of the hard thickened area when the penis is erected.

-The hard areas in the erected penis may look like bumps, making the penis irregular.

- Sometimes the penis bends greatly enough to make sexual intercourse difficult, or impossible.

- Pain during erections caused by the pressure from the hard areas in the penis, or from the stretched skin at the opposite side of the penis.

- One may not notice the bend immediately, as it tends to develop over one to three months and later than the hardness and stiffness of the indurations.

- The plastic induration may progress and cause impotence. Sometimes the Peyroni's disease will clear up by itself, but this may take several years.

THE CAUSES OF PEYRONIE¨S DISEASE

The exact cause of the induration is unknown. It's not a sign of an underlying serious condition, and it is not a sexually transmitted infection. It is possible that the disease can begin with an inflammation in the penile tissue. An inflammation may be caused by an allergic or auto-immune reaction. Although the Peyronie's disease is not an infection, an initial infection can damage the penile tissue and cause an inflammation that develops into Peyronie's disease. Men having the inflammatory condition called Systemic Lupus Erytematosus more often get Peyronie's disease.

Vitamin E deficiency seems to be a contributing factor in causing the disease. Diabetes may cause damage of blood vessels, and if this damage occurs in the erectile bodies of the penis, Peyronie's disease can develop. Peyronie's disease is sometimes a side effect of the drug Inderal (propanolol) used against high blood pressure.

Sometimes a physical injury to the penis that causes internal bleeding, or a series of such injuries, is the initial cause. A habit of violent sexual activity may cause such injuries. It is thought that some men may have a genetic disposition to the condition.

Plastic induration of the penis is not a cancer, and cannot cause cancer, however a lump or deformation in your genitals that develops, must be examined.

TREATMENT OG PEYRONIE'S DISEASE

Not all men with Payronie's disease require treatment. The disease sometimes go away by itself. If the condition is pronounced, it is also difficult to find a remedy that can cure every sign of the disease, but several methods can take away most penis changes associated with Peyronie's. Here is a survey of treatment methods used today.

Tamoxifen - In its early stages of the disease a medication called Tamoxifen has been shown to prevent the formation of the fibrous plaque by Peyronie's disease. This drug is also used in the treatment of breast cancer, but the two conditions are not related.

Vitamin E and B - Vitamin E and B is sometimes effective in easing the pain and as a treatment for the penile deformity by Peyronie's disease.

Verapamil - Verapamil, often used in the treatment of high blood pressure, has been shown to decrease the size of the plaque and decrease the pain when injected directly into the plaque, and thus also improve the penis shape distortion by peyronie's disease.

Shock wave therapy - Extracorporeal shock wave therapy, or ESWT, a new treatment, is being used in some hospitals for the Peyronie's disease. Although the initial results of this new approach to treat Peyronie's disease have been promising, the long-term outcome is still undetermined.

Surgery - This is sometimes considered if Payroni's disease has lasted for a year or more and it hasn't progressed or regressed for at least three months. By the Nesbitt procedure one removes tissue opposite to the curve to straighten the penis. Another procedure involves putting a graft or part of a vein within the fibrous plaque to lengthen this area. In certain cases of Pyrenees disease, surgical insertion of a penile prosthesis (implant) is recommended.

Radiation therapy - This treatment modality has been tried, but the results are unpredictable and sometimes the opposite of the intended one.

Traction devices - On the market, you can buy mechanical devices to use on the penis some time daily that gently pull upon the penile tissue to straighten out the penis, and thus mending the penis from the curvature caused by Peyronie's disease.

How to Get Large and Effective Erections
By Knut Holt
http://www.abicana.com/shop3.htm


Sometimes men with an already normal potency for erections wants to get even bigger and more effective erections. More often men with decreased erectile potency wants to overcome his problem and achieve erections of a satisfactory quality that last long enough. In both cases men have several possible methods to achieve the goal. In the following there is an overview of these methods and their indication for use.

Prescription drugs like Viagra, Cialis and Levitra can be used when there are erectile problems caused by an impairment of the blood supply to the penis or of the neurological regulation of the penile blood flow. These pills make the signal system inside the penis that commands relaxation and filling of the penile vessels with blood more effective. The pills do not however cause the penis to stand automatically. The man must also be sexually excited for the erection to occur. Neither do they increase the basic sexual appetite, except that a better erectile power may have a positive psychological effect on the sexual drive.

These products can also give side effects. Some men have a risk of a dangerous blood pressure fall if they have specific medical problems or take the drugs together with certain other drug, like nitroglycerin tablets. Therefore one must let a doctor check if these drugs are safe for oneself before using them.

Herbal pills, popularly called penis enhancement pills, are made to give a positive effect on all aspects of the potency. They can be used both when a man has medical impairments of the erections and when a man only wants even stronger potency. They contain herbal extracts that will increase the sexual drive, make erections occur more easily, give bigger and harder erections, make the penis stand more stable and make erections last longer. Which of these effects are the greatest vary from product to product. Some experts claim that these type of products do not have any effects. Some producer of the products claim however that they have let the products go through tests at independent laboratories with an excellent outcome, and these product also have a generally good reputation in the market.

One can also find patches to be placed near to the penis that contain the same elements as the pills. The working elements diffuse from the patch across the skin and is distributed in the groin area. The pills and the patches will enhance the erection ability the whole day or night, but it takes around 14 days before the effects fully occur.

There are topical oils or emulsions to smear or spray at the penis head to stimulate an erection, often called transdermal erection oils. The ingredients in these can be herbal or pharmacological depending on the product. They contain ingredients that diffuse through the penile skin. Once inside the tissue, they stimulate the nerves so that the man feels more of the good feelings and also stimulate the neural reflexes that control erections. They also help the blood vessels to relax so that the penis more easily gets filled with blood. Some of these product also contain analgesic substances to take away irritation in the skin that can make an erection cease. Many of these products are formulated as watery emulsions that can be used together with a condom. Others are based on botanic or synthetic oils that must be used without a condom, because they dissolve the rubber in the condoms.

On the market you can also find condoms with the same ingredients as the erection oils at the inside, that will give the same effects. The oils, sprays and medicated condoms will give an instant erectile stimulation. The good effect will typically last a couple of hours.

Penis pumps can be used to make the penis engorged and stiff just before the sexual activity, and one can maintain the erection with a penis ring around the base of the penis. A penis pump consists of a cylinder to be placed over the penis, a hand pump to draw air out of the cylinder and a tube connecting the hand pump and the cylinder. The pump can also have a gauge to measure the underpressure made in the cylinder. It is used by pumping air out of the cylinder. This gives a greater difference between the blood pressure and the pressure outside the penis so that blood is pushed into the penis. Then the penis ring is threaded around the penile base to hold the erection.

For men that have no other possibility to achieve an erection, surgery can be an alternative. During surgery one installs an element in the penis and partly between the man's legs to stiffen the penis. There are basically two types of these elements. The simplest of them are partly stiff rods that make the penis halfway stiff all the time. It will then be stiff enough to perform intercourse, but still flexible enough to handle it comfortably during daily life. The other type of elements are inflatable so that they can be pumped up just before intercourse.

A simple measure like relaxing some while before sexual activity, while drinking some coffee or tea of good quality will often have a very beneficial effect upon the potency. Coffee and tea stimulate your sexual reactions. Relaxing with a drink can however give mixed result. A drink can help you to overcome worries and tension that otherwise will impair your potency, but the alcohol also has a depressing effect upon your bodily reactions.

Since a good erection potency is heavily dependent upon a well working blood circulatory system, a lifestyle that enhances the circulatory health will also make you more potent. Such a lifestyle involves a good diet, regular exercises, enough sleep and means to tress down regularly.
