Sounds like you are recovering fine.  Hopefully start cycling, get in a good hot shower or hot tub/ bath if you are healed up. Good luck

Pentox has been around for a very long time. It was the first non-coumadin drug to help prevent clotting. It does absolutely nothing. That's right, nothing. I can't believe it is still prescribed today. Really demonstrates the ignorance of people in medicine today.

No, no surgery apart from the implant.

I've literally been dealing with this issue for 7 years now and I'm no better off.

I'm not disappointed with the implant I just think maybe I made the wrong decision to have it done because it isn't that part of my penis that doesn't work. If the rest of it did work I'd probably be happy.

Now I have a penile implant and no sensation because the corpus spongiosum doesn't fill.

Not sure what to actually do next.

Everything looks great! I am certain you will be 100% satisfied with your outcome. Yes going to the dentist with an erection could be an eye opener for the staff

DAY FOURTEEN THROUGH TWENTY POST-IMPLANT

When I chose to have my surgery in November, I anticipated recuperating over Thanksgiving and hopefully being more comfortable by Christmas and New Year's.

Thanksgiving is more relaxing and less intense than late December and from reading other men's experience I know the first three weeks can be challenging. My discomfort has been significant, but not acute. I have about a 6" incision from just below my glans running down the shaft of my penis to my scrotum.

Most of my swelling is gone, in the shaft and scrotum thought the area where my penis protrudes from my abdomen is still at least 20% swollen. This is annoying as it makes my dick look smaller. When I push it down, I gain at least an inch! My girth is a little over 5" which is about what it was before Peyronies.

Dr. Clavell instructs most (or maybe all) his patients to stay inflated for at least 3 to 4 weeks, so I don't know what my length and girth will be like when I inflate. I'm definitely a penile implant puppy. I haven't had much experience yet, I haven't inflated, deflated or had an orgasm. I have been implanted, and I'm recovering well. I hadn't reached out to Dr. Clavell in two weeks, but tonight I sent him photos and he said my incision looks great and to let it keep healing.

I had to go to the dentist today. My dentist is a close friend and last week I asked him if I should cancel my cleaning as showing up with a 70% inflated penis while inclined in a dental chair seemed fraught with peril. We decided I would go, but I chose my bulky wardrobe carefully and it went fine.

The most pain I have is from a "rug burn" like effect on the tip of my penis. Because I have been erect so long, it keeps rubbing. I've tried a baby sock, Separatec and David Archy underwear I even put on a condom briefly. The best protection is the baby sock, but I'll be glad when my penis is deflated and it quits rubbing on underwear, gym shorts and pants. It doesn't "hurt" in a super painful way, but it's as annoying as a paper cut, maybe worse.

I'm nervous about the angle of my penis inflated. It's about 5 o'clock now and I've always pointed down and I was hoping to end up at 3 o'clock. Not a big deal, but I got my hopes up that I'd finally stick out straight and not sure that will happen.

My partner has been supportive and is looking forward to trying out the bionic penis. We haven't talked about it a lot (talking about sex when I can't have any is ultimately frustrating) but I'm excited and nervous to finally have a penis that I don't have to wonder it it's going soft. I'm curious, hopeful and a little anxious, but mostly I think it will go well once I'm used to it.

I was given the classic Titan pump. I told Dr. Clavell I preferred the one-touch as I didn't want a squeak, but he said they both can squeak, though the classic is worse, but we agreed in surgery he would do what he thought best. He said because I've used testosterone for at least three years and my scrotum has shrunk that the smaller the pump, likely the better.
Tomorrow, I go to the University of Washington Urology department and I'm looking forward to Dr. Hehemann checking out my progress and showing me how to cycle if she thinks I'm ready.

I don't really have any regrets about doing this, but I am in that state of ambiguity of knowing I've done something irreversible that's likely to go well, but I haven't really experienced it yet. Everything I think I know about what it will be like to pump and have a fully erect penis on demand is a projection or guess. I don't know what it's like. Haven't done it, but I am hopeful.

I couldn't help thinking this Thanksgiving of how grateful I am that these implants are even a possibility and I'm extremely impressed by the engineering, care and thought that went in to creating them. Fingers crossed that it works the way I hope!

P.S. Here are the photos 3-weeks post surgery I sent Dr. Clavell. He says I am "looking good." 
I LOVE not having the severe hour glassing (it is GONE) or the 45 degree curve!

I'm new here and certainly no expert but is there any way some type of grafting would work for you? I've read about vascular bypass similar to a heart bypass. I'm considering an implant myself but the permanence of it gives me reason to pause. It seems you are in the UK? I don't know anything about the Drs there, but have you consulted any of the big names in the US? Was any surgery besides the implant done on you?

Woke up 2 years ago with 35degree curve to the left. There had been pain for 6months previously on erection with poor EQ.Urologist found nodule. Waited a year and started restorex, penipro, antioxidants. Currently started Tadalafil 5mg, pumping and only 5 degrees curve but divot and hinging in spot where nodule was found. Nodule gone but band in its place with mild hour-glassing. Last 6 months no sexual feeling in Glans and often cold and numb. Can't ejaculate in sex barely in masterbation. Gained back most length and girth. Finally got US scheduled but no funds given expense of everything else. I'm in my late 50's.

If you have the means to travel then I would highly suggest having a consult with Dr Trost and then decide what his best suggestion would be. He does have a very high success rate with Xiaflex administration. Traction could also prove to be helpful in your case.

Hi Mike,
Fixed up the signature.

No injury to speak of, just developed over a 2 week period for unknown reasons. Dr Trost, is the one from Utah? I am based in Australia and Xiaflex is not available here, I'm not sure if it would be possible to ship it in and have it administered by a local doctor but I would be willing to fly to the US. As far as I know it's not illegal here. I didn't know what VED was but after looking into it I realise I do use a pump already. I had scans done about 6 months ago and the plaque seems to have gone but the hourglassing still remains, i assume the plaque did some damage to the inside of my penis, not 100 percent sure.

Welcome Willl2024 to the forum. Thank you for filling out your signature line. Please download and read our survival guide --> Survival Guide. This will give you a greater understanding of peyronies and it's different treatments.

Sorry to hear about your condition. So in 2023 you had an injury or peyronies was diagnosed? Did you have an erect ultrasound? Do you have a peyronies Dr? Is your neuropathy pain or numbness etc...? Have you gotten any positive results from traction or VED therapy? So does Cialis help with erections at all?

Conquering the worry aspect and anxiety is a big part of the recovery process. Bodily inflammation is a main culprit in the disease also. Anything to address that is a plus. Hour glassing can be difficult to resolve but it is not impossible with dedication and consistency. I would continue on with the traction and VED therapy. An implant is indicated when you can no longer achieve and maintain a sustainable erection. The success of the implant relies totally on the physician. Dr Eid in NY is my first choice for a surgeon and he is a guest here on the forum. The main thing to remember is that this is a marathon and not a sprint.
