Temporarily cannot feel plaque after traction

Hey everyone, is it normal for plaque to be temporarily softened or just not palpable for a short while after doing traction? I think my plaque has recently become palpable after almost a year, it is from what I can feel roughly the size of a single piece of rice and very hard to the touch. It does feel like it bulges out a tiny bit from everything else but it's not visible only palpable. After 30 minutes of restorex I can't palpate it for maybe 2 hours or so, it completely blends in and becomes elastic/'squishy' like the rest of my flaccid.

Not sure if this is plaque or what, but I couldn't feel it a month ago and it's right where the curve starts.

Curve to the right that fluctuates between 20-30 degrees and indentation. Indent is exactly where the curve is.

I noticed that mine kinda smoothes out a bit immediately after traction but eventually it becomes noticable again. Hopefully it progressively gets less and less noticable over time.
Upward congenital curvature. Penile fracture 2-3 years ago. Indentation/plaque on the underside of my penis at the base and worsened upward curve. Decent EQ, flaccid pain

Started Penimaster Pro + RestoreX

My plaque and nodules would always feel smaller after traction and over time slowly shrunk in size then dissolved altogether. Everyone is different.

Did you completely get rid of your plaques?

And if so did the curvature go away?

I'm pretty sure this is the case for scar tissue in general, unless in an unfortunate case of peyronies the plaque calcifies. Assuming it doesn't calcify though, it begs the question to me as how peyronies can be a lifelong condition. If the plaque shrinks or fades completely over a period of years, would the curve not get straighter and straighter as the scar gets smaller and smaller?

I cannot feel any remaining plaques but I still have an upward curvature towards my glans of about 15 to 20 degrees. I never had any curvature before peyronies as everything was straight as an arrow. I still do occasional traction and VED which does help with my erections since I can't take any meds.

That's great news.

Which treatments did you do to get rid of plaques?

I only used traction and VED therapy. I started with the PMP for about 18 months then added in the Restorex along with it. I adopted a healthier eating style by eliminating a lot of sugar and started walking 15 miles a week.

I've been using VED and looking into getting started on traction.

I was doing a ketogenic diet for the past 6 months for weight loss for sport.

Strangely enough this is when my peyronies began.

I have been following a low carb diet at present as carbohydrates are responsible for inflammation and lots of health problems.

Being completely honest I can't think of any negatives to having an upward curvature of that degree, especially if there's no indentation. Assuming no other symptoms. I can only think of benefits to having a small upward curve
