Peyronie's and excess skin?

[shanadjiq]

Hello,

Last year in May I developed severe neuropathic pain in the penis and testicles. At the time, I attributed it to a penis ring that I occasionally use during sex. After a few months, I started to feel a very hard band on the left side of the penis, starting from the base and extending upward to just below the glans, especially noticeable during erection. Initially there was no curvature, so I visited a urologist, who told me that this was Peyronie's disease — a sclerotic plaque.

The plaque is approximately 3–4 cm long and about 1.5 mm wide. Over the past few months, in addition to curvature and pain, I have noticed a significant amount of excess skin at the base of the penis when flaccid. During erection, the excess skin is less pronounced, but it still appears wrinkled or folded.

I visited a urologist again, and they suggested starting physiotherapy. Regarding the excess skin, they said it could be corrected surgically, while removal of the plaque itself would require waiting until the disease reaches the chronic (stable) phase.

Has anyone else experienced a similar issue, particularly significant excess skin?

I am assuming you have lost length? When the tunica shortens, it bunches up in areas where the plaque is, which is why it feels like there is excess skin.

The only thing I recall about skin, was regarding a bump near the glans from prolonged restorex usage and not on the scrotum... I agree with that they said on the surgical correction of the webbing. As for the plaque, you lose nothing by trying restorex while the disease is in the chronic phase.

I forgot to say that the second time I went to the urologist, I told him that things were progressing, i.e. there was a loss of volume, distortion and excess skin. He claims that he doesn't see any loss of volume, but otherwise where would this excess skin come from? When I read the forum, however, I see that other people are also complaining about loss of volume, length, thickness, but excess skin is rarely reported/seen in their photos.

In that case, what you need to do is get on the vacuum device and follow old-mans vacuum routine!

Due to shortening I see more skin wrinkled up at the location of my plaque during erection. I don't see a difference in flaccid.

I see excess skin and when flaccid, while when erect it is better, but the plaque is quite long on me. Does the plaque start at the base on yours?

[PleaseFindACure]

No, for me I have a bit extra skin when flaccid, but I lost some weight at I optimised my health due to this disease.

When erect I see the folding/wrinkling right behind the glans where my plaque is.

I have another urologist follow up end of March where I also wanted to mention this at it is a bit annoying for the feeling during sex.

I decided to order Restorex, my question is can I use it successfully while I'm undergoing Shockwave therapy. I saw that they also sell some pumps supposedly specifically designed for Peyronie's. Has anyone used one and how long does it take to see results?
