Penis Curvature

Hi
Ever since I was a child, my penis has curved a bit towards the left. For years I've tried to "correct it" by keeping it on the right side of my boxers, but that really doesn't do anything. Is there anyway that this can be fixed? I've dealt with it for so long and I'm ready to get it over with, but unsure how to go about doing so

It does help thank you for your time.
I'd like to add that it does not give me and pain or discomfort in any way and it never has. It just...seems to be that way since I was very young.
Should I still seek a urologist or leave it as it is and not worry about it any longer?
I forgot to mention that I am 26 years old, not that it probably matters too much.

Thank you!

Hi,
A slight curvature of the penis is quite common and hence nothing much to worry. However, if you have pain & discomfort due to the same and there’s a fibrous cord within the penis, then it’s known as peyronie’s disease and needs to be operated upon. Please do consult a urologist for the same and seek an opinion. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care.
