There is nothing to worry if you have a curved penis because it is really very simple to straighten it. It needs a bit of patience and that's it. First of all curved penises is not a disease. It is just a "disorder" which can be cured. Sometimes the terms bend and curbed penis are used together, but actually bend penis is a severe case, but again that can be cured. All of these occur because of scar tissues.
A bent penis usually has a scar tissue but a curved penis where the curvature is lesser does not have one. A bent penis is usually known as Peyronies Disease. Now this can be completely cured without surgery but due to too much of a curvature the time taken to cure it might be a bit long. A simple curved penis can be the result of minor scar on the penile tissue, genetic reasons, or a constant pulling in a specific direction - as from masturbation, positioning, or tight clothing.
Facts and remedies
- Peyronies Disease results due to inflammation and minor injuries in the tunica albuginea. The tunica albuginea - present only in males - is an elastic tissue that creates the wall around the corpora cavernosa (which is the cylindrical tube forming the penile shaft). This is the zone that protects the interior of the penis. Peyronies Disease makes for a bent or a curved penis especially during erection. This is due to the deposit or formation of hard fibrous plaques or lumps on the tunica albuginea, where the scarring events may occur. Now these can be painful. Peyronies Disease can possibly cause suffering to a great deal mainly with temporary erectile dysfunction(ED). This causes bloodflow into the penis to get constricted by the formation of plaque or lumps. This may be followed by the pain in the erection and softening of the penis. According to the statistics this disorder affects 1 to 3 percent of men, mostly those above the age of 55 years. Now although this disease is not life threatening but it can affect the self esteem and the sexual life.
- Penis extender - these devices are known for their ability to increase the size but they can also be used for penis curvature correction, and the effectiveness might go up to 90%. This device works by providing pressure on the shaft gently and in the process correcting the curvature. There is another positive side to this that while the curvature is being worked on the size of the penis also get enlarged slowly.
- Penis exercise (jelqing) - this is another safe way of treating this disorder. The best thing about this exercise is that they can be done in complete privacy. The other benefits include harder and fuller erection that can last long, and some control over ejaculation. The efficiency rate varies between 50 % and 90 %. It is important to focus on the bent area while performing jelqing exercises as the straightening process needs extra effort besides achieving a desirably good size and shape for your penis.
- Penis traction - This process does not have any side effects. The skin will get longer if it is gradually stretched and in the process the scar will also get stretched. Now when the scar skin is as long as the normal surrounding skin when the process of erection a bent penis cannot be formed and the curvature problem of the penis will be solved. The best thing about the traction devices are that they can be worn beneath the clothes and go unnoticed. But a word of caution goes behind this that is it is always advisable not to rush to the process. It is best applicable gently.
- For best results it is advisable to apply both the process gently and simultaneously. with the help pf a device and stretching the penis away from the curve, and using manual techniques that means exercise, one can apply stimulation at many different levels to get the shorter side growing evenly with the other side in the process correcting the curvature of the penis. Then once the curvature disorder is corrected one can go for the penis enlargement. Again it is advisable to do it slowly and gradually. These devices come at a relatively cheaper price than the process of surgery and that is only $300. As is stated before, these devices have no side effects.
- Surgery is a very expensive proposition. the cost of a penis correction surgery may go up to as high as $6000 and this is followed by various side effects and hazards like impotence, erectile dysfunction, erection sustainability, infection decreased sensation (causing inability to orgasm), and the list can be unnecessary extended. There is a new technique that is Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy, but is also very expensive.
