Understanding Peyronie’s Disease (Penile Curvature and Pain)

Peyronie's Disease is a condition where scar tissue forms in the penis, leading to curves, lumps, or pain during erections. It can affect confidence and intimacy, but early care makes a big difference. Visit our DOXXES store on SW Freeway/Chimney Rock to explore comfort-focused tools and support.

What is Peyronie’s Disease?

Peyronie's happens when plaques (thick scar tissue) form just under the skin of the penis. This can cause bending or pain during arousal. Some men only notice it during stimulation.

Common forms include:

  • Superficial plaque (just under the skin)
  • Deep fibrosis (affecting inner layers)
  • Provoked curvature (only during erection or sex)

Why Does Peyronie’s Disease Happen?

Emotional Factors:

  • Stress or performance anxiety
  • Emotional trauma
  • Relationship tension

Physical Factors:

  • Tiny injuries during sex
  • Infections or inflammation
  • Hormonal shifts like low testosterone
  • Weak pelvic support muscles
  • Genetics

Most men have a mix of physical and emotional causes.

Real-Life Examples and Common Triggers

Examples:

  • A man develops a curve after a small injury during sex.
  • A partner notices painful nodules returning during intimacy.
  • Cold weather makes pain worse due to less tissue flexibility.
  • Pain flares after sex without enough lubrication or warm-up.

How to Spot Triggers:

  • Keep a journal of pain, erections, and activity.
  • Try different positions and track which ones feel better.
  • Use more lubrication and watch for improvements.

Who It Affects and Emotional Differences

Peyronie’s can happen at any age but is more common in men over 40. It often affects self-esteem and relationships.

  • Men may feel anxious, avoid sex, or worry about performance.
  • Partners may feel confused, disconnected, or unsure how to help.

Open communication and empathy are key.

How a Sex Therapist Can Help

  • They’ll talk about past injuries, stress, or painful intercourse.
  • They may screen for depression or anxiety.
  • They’ll suggest ways to rebuild intimacy, such as breathing exercises, partner communication, or safe touch techniques.
