Peyronie’s Disease.

Peyronie’s disease (PD) can be a physically and psychologically devastating condition.  PD is characterized by a fibrous, inelastic scar involving the tunica albuginea.  This scar can result in a palpable plaque in the flaccid state and a visible deformity when erect.  These deformities can include a bend or indentation, narrowing of the shaft, a hinging effect, and even penile shortening.  Painful erections are also common, especially in the initial months of PD.  All of these factors can make sexual activity more difficult and negatively affect self esteem and sexual satisfaction.  While data vary regarding its effect on penile deformity, electrohydraulic shockwave treatment using innovative SoftWave® technology has been shown to help resolve the pain often associated with PD.  

 

“I feel more sensation on the part of my shaft where the fibrosis is most concentrated than I have in years.  The base of my penis is becoming wider. I had the best erection while sleeping in at least six months last night.”
