Catch!

 

Morning

It's Fat Tuesday. Personally, I have a hankering for some of Maddie's traditional Beignets. Yum!

Happy Mardi Gras!

May you catch many beads. 

"I wanted to ask you if you or anyone you know has ever had a problem with payronese? (not sure of spelling). I'm in my 60s and I've recently noticed that my boner has developed an unusual curve that it's never had before. A lady I was with recently (I'm bi) commented on it too. It hasn't affected my sexual activity/performance, but should I see a doctor or be concerned? I'd appreciate any feedback."

What you describe is Peyronies Disease - which isn't really a "disease" at all. It's a bend or unnatural curve along the shaft that is plaque scar tissue. Somewhere along the line, you cracked or fractured the Tunica, the fibrous sheath surrounding the soft/spongy tissue that collects the blood to form an erection.

Most men don't know when the damage happened - you may have rolled over on a boner when you were sleeping, you may have pulled or pushed your cock in the wrong way while jacking off, you may have jammed it somehow during penetrative sex.

The severity of the bend / curve would determine the proper treatment. A very minor one would probably not require anything at all as long as it doesn't bother you or interfere with sexual activity. Bear in mind, it could continue to get worse over time.

If a partner has noticed, it may be time to see a doctor - a urologist who can treat it. He will (or should) evaluate the amount of scar tissue and the severity of the bend in order to determine a path forward. That treatment could be as simple as applying a steroid cream to dissolve the scar tissue before it builds up too much.

I haven't had personal experience, so next week I'll ask my readers for any insight they can offer. In the meantime, you should be able to search my blog for the tags "peyronies" and "bent cock" for more info.

Anyone have experience dealing with Peyronies?
