What are the symptoms of Peyronies disease?
The plaque in Peyronie’s disease is benign, or non-cancerous. The following are the most common symptoms of Peyronie’s disease. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include: • Plaque on the top of the shaft, which is the most common condition, causes the penis to bend upward. • Plaque on the underside causes the penis to bend downward. • In cases where the plaque develops on both top and bottom, indentation and shortening of the penis may occur. • Pain, bending, and emotional distress can prohibit sexual intercourse. • Painful erections may occur. The symptoms of Peyronie’s disease may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
