People who had degloving procedure (for any type of penile surgery, peyronie, cpc or something else) and already circumcised, did your doctor cut exactly from your previous circumcision line? My new scar is little bit higher than previous one and it bothers me.

Thanks for the responses I did get which were for the most part encouraging. I have seen my Urologist who did confirm one small spot of scar tissue with his hand. I showed him the picture of my one dent that does not seem to go all the way around my penis. This started to the best of my knowledge early February 2024. From what I can see it has not gotten worse (yet). I have strong erections all night long, zero pain and except for seeing and feeling the dent.. everything else seems normal. I cannot figure out how to post a pic or I would .. lol. I guess I will remain positive, have. Started Verapamil cream twice a day, Vitamin E orally and topically and ordered some L-Arginine too

Quote from: Kindafamous on April 20, 2024, 11:02:53 AMGreetings fellow members..

TH here. Hopefully someone had experienced what I am experiencing and can give me some insight as to why at to expect. A couple months ago (late February) I felt a tiny lump on the right side of my penis up high a little below the head. I have frequent erections during the night I am happy to report for my 67 years of age. At the end of March I happened to take a good look at my erect penis and I could See and FEEL a dent!! .. The dent does NOT travel all the way around the shaft thankfully (yet?), and I have no pain at all, flaccid or erect. My urologist examined me and said for sure there is a small scar tissue spot there. He prescribed a compound cream Verapimil (160mg/GM) to apply twice a day. He does not think it is very serious at this point and said it "might not even progress"....but that sounded like an educated guess to me.

My question: Is this the beginning of a possibly worsening case of Peyronies Disease? Chances are you have seen this exact beginning before? What might I expect from here?
Thanks for your tan time and sorry about the long "question"..

I tried pelvic floor therapy, Cialis, 2 dopplars, worked with a whollistic nurse, lost 30 pounds, tried homeopathic remedies (a blend of a bunch of vitamins I took at simultaneously which I can't remember the sort.) And I find the greatest remedy in my case was abstinence and good diet, rest and relaxation, and plenty of walking and sunshine!

Quote from: Hawk on May 01, 2024, 03:57:04 PMAs stated, the risk of infection (Generally 2%) adds up to at least 12% with 6 revisions.  An infection can be a nightmare.

Hello Mr. Hawk, I'd like to ask about the latter statement - an infection being a nightmare.
There's this video of dr. Clavell where he inserts an implant in post-infection patient and the guy gets the same size implant, as he was religiously using VED meanwhile dealing with infection. Also read couple of other cases where post infection guys were able to regain what they lost due to it, or really close to their baseline.
My question is, is there any worse fate than this possible size loss? I've seen a guy on the other forum who stated he can't be implanted no more due to excessive scar tissue, but this is a single case and apart from this I've never read of another guys running out of revisions....And some had many. I can accept some months of dealing with malleable, but if there's the end of the road where I can't have another IPP installed - indeed that's a nightmare.

I do not believe phimosis (tight foreskin) and ED are related.

Young men are, however, accepted for implants by many high-volume surgeons if they have ED.  If a young man has full erectile function and only Peyronies Disease deformity, there are too many other options.

Congratulations! Great report! 

I have tried to assure men for years that inflating an implant can be done discretely with no trouble.  All it takes is a tiny bit of practice and understanding the process.
