Have you recently experienced an injury to your genital area that has changed its shape? If so, you may be dealing with Peyronie’s disease. Don’t worry—effective treatment options are available to help manage this condition.
A small injury to the genital area can potentially lead to Peyronie’s disease in men, though many may not realise they have been injured at all.
Injuries, such as being struck by an object or having an accident while caring for a child at a playground, may seem minor at the time but can lead to more serious health issues, particularly for those who feel uncomfortable seeking medical advice.
Answer a few simple questions. This test is for informational purposes only and not a substitute for professional medical advice.
As men age, the ability to achieve an erection can decline, partly due to changes in blood flow. Our body’s ability to direct blood into the genital area becomes less efficient as blood vessels lose their effectiveness, which can contribute to conditions like Peyronie’s disease. Injury during intimate activity may also increase the risk of developing Peyronie’s disease, particularly in middle-aged and older men.
As men age, they may experience a decline in rigidity, which can increase the risk of accidental injury during intimate activity. This injury can lead to internal trauma, with small amounts of bleeding and damage to tissue, potentially contributing to the development of Peyronie’s disease.
While this is a sensitive topic, it is important for men to have open discussions with their partners. There are measures that can help reduce the risk of injury and the onset of Peyronie’s disease. For men who have received treatment for Peyronie’s disease, such as focused shockwave therapy, it’s essential to take steps to prevent recurrence.
