Hello.

It sounds like you may have developed Peyronie's Condition. Peyronie's is a condition of uncertain cause, which is characterized by a plaque, or hard lump, that forms on the penis. The plaque develops on the upper or lower side of the penis in layers containing erectile tissue. It begins as a localized inflammation and can develop into a hardened scar, which causes penile curvature.

Now here’s some good news: Some research has found that some men who have Peyronie’s will have improvement or complete correction of their penile curvature within the first 12 months of their condition. Since the plaque in Peyronie's disease may shrink or disappear without treatment, some medical experts suggest waiting a full year before attempting any correction. Peyronie's need not interfere with your sexuality unless the curvature becomes so severe that it causes great pain. Since you mention it is, in fact, interfering with your sexual functioning, I suggest you see a urologist, who can diagnose this condition. and make some suggestions. Do see a physician ASAP to determine what's going on. Good luck! Dr. J
