Quote from: Sebtp1973 on March 19, 2024, 06:26:53 PMWhen you have a curve, it's difficult to see that. It's curving into where the erosion of healthy tissue is, thus "hiding" it or camouflaging it. When you get it straightened, the dent becomes apparent.

I have read Dr Trost say this on the forums. It makes sense, when I manually straighten my erection by hand (I know I shouldn't) the dent is apparent, when it's curved it's difficult to even notice a dent, because of the reasons you described.

Interestingly enough inside my VED when using the cylinder that is sized to my girth, with the snug fit of the cylinder holding my erection straight, the indent does actually fill out. Though this is only when using the VED, not outside of it.

I'm not a doctor, so I might be talking out my arse, but... I think the plaque "eats away" at your healthy tissue. When you have a curve, it's difficult to see that. It's curving into where the erosion of healthy tissue is, thus "hiding" it or camouflaging it. When you get it straightened, the dent becomes apparent. I think a hinge is a more significant dent?

Quote from: boston on March 19, 2024, 06:12:23 PMthere is a void in the tissue at that spot.  And as the OP indicated, Dr. Trost also stated that hinging may last for years. 

Hey man, I remember making that comment lol. It was the same week my doctor told me what's happening to me is Peyronies. I've since learnt exponentially more about it so I'm more familiar with hinging now.

Anyway, that is also concerning to me. How can there be a void in tissue at the spot, and yet the hinging may last for years? How can the hinging resolve, even if after years - does the void 'regrow'? That can't possibly be the case.

I've also seen on this forum Trost mention that he's seen hourglassing improve over time, albeit very slowly, around 5% per year. That also doesn't make much intuitive sense to me, though I'm not doubting that it's true. Is the diseased tissue slowly 'reversing' which makes the hourglass slowly pop back out? Can't be...

I don't expect you to know the answers btw, but if you're in contact with Dr Trost, may be worth asking

Quote from: Lostand Looking24 on February 07, 2024, 06:20:52 AMWhat's the difference between a hinge/flop and a peyronies curve with indentation anyway? Atleast it would be temporary. For the results he gets, from what I've seen online at least, if I was in the USA I would personally take the risk and go for it with him. That's just my own opinion though, and what I'd do.

From what Dr. Trost told me, it is like your penis has a hinge when erect, at the former site of the plaque, where his protocol injects Xiaflex and performs aggressive modeling.

He stated they were unsure what the cause was but now believe it is because after treatment, there is a void in the tissue at that spot.  And as the OP indicated, Dr. Trost also stated that hinging may last for years. 

Frankly, as someone considering traveling to his clinic, I find it very concerning, especially since it seems unique to his treatment regime and they still don't seem to fully understand the cause or how to avoid it.  Also, stating that healing may take years implies to me they don't have a lot of long-term data here and it might also be permanent.

So yes, I am also very interested in the results folks who sought treatment with Dr. Trost have seen.

Pdxguy,

No, mine did not push any further into the head.
Time is the big healer!
I am in my 4th year and each year far exceeded the previous year.

I didn't have any curvature issue. I just lost length and girth...

I keep aplying the treatment as above and continue to seeing results.

Thanks Stepone! Regarding my angle, that's what I was hoping to be the case.

I have another question, I'm still inflated at 70% and I can feel the top of the implant under my glans from the top of my cock. Does the implant push even further up into the glans as you inflate more?

Pdxguy,
Yes I had pump issues seeming to stuck to something, but gentle massaging in a hot bath seemed to ease things up.
Your doctor is giving you good instructions.
Time will change the position and "angle " it will point/hang.
I am sure you have read from others on this site about trying to keep your cock pointed up when you have clothing on.
In plain terms, you want the root of your cock to heal in an upward position, so when you pump it, your cock will point upward.
I personally have found, years have caused my penis angle to change. If I wear tightly briefs with my cock to the left, when I take my briefs off, it assumes that position.
When I have worn my cock to the right with briefs, when naked it hangs to the right.
In other words, I think your cock soft angle is easy to change its angle.
But for now, while the base is still healing and forming scar tissue, I would try to keep it pointed up.
As time went by, I found it easy to change its hang.
Hope this helps
