Peyronies a Bent Penis Disease
By Daniels Charles
A French surgeon, François de la Peyronies first described Peyronies disease in 1743. Early authors classified Peyronies disease as a form of impotence however, specialist now recognize Erectile Dysfunction as only one factor associated with the disease, a factor that is not present always.
Peyronies Disease is acquired in adult life rather than at birth like hypospadias. Men with Peyronies disease usually seek medical interest because of painful erections and difficulty with intercourse.
Peyronies Disease is caused by the formation of hard sign on the upper or lower side of the penis. The plaque forms in layers containing erectile tissue. The local inflammation eventually develops into a full scar. This scar tissue is hard and inflexible, and causes the penis to bend when erection. The effects of this bend are far less noticeable when the penis is in a flaccid state.
3 men out of every 100 men suffer from Peyronies disease, a roundabout of the penis during erection. Penis contains balloon type container when these containers filled with blood lead to erection. These balloons can develop a scar that prevents them from increasing normally during an erection, causing the penis to bend toward the scar. A report from Italy shows that the main reason for Peyronies disease is taking weekly injections of a medication to treat high blood pressure plus a drug that carries fat into cells.
Usually this is a harmless condition that requires no treatment because the scar disappears, with no treatment, within five years on the average. Impotence associated with Peyronies disease responds well to all available treatments for impotence, such as Viagra. Doctors treat Peyronies disease only when it hurts to have an erection or prevents a man from making love.
Surgery option for Peyronies Disease often fails to cure this condition, but it can be cured by injections of verapamil directly into the scar in the penis (5 mg twice a week for 10 weeks) plus a 3-month administration of propionyl-L-carnitine (2 g/day). Check with your doctor.
