I think it's important to be very careful with injections. There's probably sme scope for use with related conditions in more durable areas of the body, but for peyronie's I don't think I'd consider anyinjections with the 'possible' exception of Xiaflex. As for topical applicatins, as has been pointed out, reaching where it counts might be problematic. Of course anything that might help is worth looking into though. I wish more peyronies studies were ongoing.

Triamcinolone has been used for Dupuytren's for several years, with many people claiming positive results, although no dramatic cures.

We have a doctor here in Boston that does that procedure you speak of.  And yes it is subcutanious, but does not puncture the tunica.  So the medicine makes direct contact with the inflamation on the tunica.

Doctor Munarriz is at Boston Medical center
720 Harrison Ave. 6th floor,
Boston, Ma  02118

1-617-638-8485

Lancaster, if you decide to get this procedure done please post your results here or private message me, as I have been thinking of visiting Munarriz also.

Lancaster:

I was prescribed an ointment by the same above name. It helps with rashes, but I don't have any idea it would help with Peyronies Disease symptoms if rubbed on ones dick!! You have to get the med into the penile shaft tissue for it to do any good.

http://www.urotoday.com/3351/browse_categories/peyronies_disease/severe_disabling_andor_chronic_penile_pain_associated_with_peyronies_disease_management_with_subcutaneous_steroid_injection__abstract09022009.html

Above link is to UroToday.  Article is titled subcutaneous steroid injection.  The steroid used is Triamcinolone (50 mg).
The injection is  subcutaneous and non intralesional.  I have read the stories on other forums about folks who had triamcinolone injected into their leg, butt, back or arm.  Most of the time a large dimple, hole or divit develops.  

This uro does not penetrate the tunica.  Anybody have experience with triamcinolone to stop the pain of cronic tunica albugenia fibrosis.  I have had pain for four years and no sign of relenting.
