According to medical statistics, two-thirds of adult men have varying degrees of curvature when their penis is erect. On the contrary, only about 30% of men have it in a completely erect state, while the penis is curved. direction, some bend upward, some bend downward, some bend left, some bend right, and some bend both upward or downward and left or right, and the bending part is at the front end, middle or back of the penis. Both ends are possible.

Congenital curvature of the penis has nothing to do with masturbation (masturbation), nor is it caused by wearing pants that are too tight or not positioning the penis properly when wearing pants. Therefore, it is impossible to use the position of the penis when wearing pants. The opposite direction of the curvature is corrected; there is currently insufficient scientific evidence to show that sleeping on your stomach has any relationship with penile curvature.

"Congenital curvature of the penis" is mainly due to the fact that there are pairs of corpus cavernosum in the male penis, but the corpus cavernosum on the left and right sides do not necessarily grow at the same speed during puberty, even if The sponges on the same side may not develop exactly the same way up, down, left, and right, so the sponges will be of different lengths and sizes. The tunica albuginea of ​​the penis that contains the corpus cavernosum is very elastic, so when the penis is soft and soft, no abnormality can be seen. However, when the penis is erect and filled with blood, the longer side will move toward the shorter side. Compression will cause the penis to bend.

Penis curvature, generally speaking, does not require active treatment if the degree of curvature is within 15 degrees, and has no impact on sexual behavior. If it exceeds 30 degrees, there will be obvious symptoms during erection. A small number of patients will feel pain due to abnormality. Treatment is only needed if they have difficulty in sexual intercourse. In outpatient clinics, there have also been cases of men with bent penises who ruptured the tunica albuginea of ​​the penis due to improper force during sexual intercourse, and needed immediate surgical repair. Otherwise, it will easily lead to difficulty or incomplete erection in the future, or the penis will become more curved after erection. .

The main treatment for congenital penile curvature is surgery. Currently, there is no oral or injected medicine that can be used to treat penile curvature. More than 90% of patients can achieve significant improvement after surgery. improvement. The best time for surgical treatment is when you are over 18 years old, because if the penis has not yet fully developed, surgery may be overcorrected or prone to recurrence. The surgical method is nothing more than cutting off lengths to make up for shortcomings or cutting off curves to straighten them. During the surgery, saline or vasodilators such as prostaglandin e1 can be infused into the cavernous body of the penis to cause erection of the penis and control the correction angle of the surgery.

The causes of penile curvature include congenital differences in the development of the corpus cavernosum, trauma to the penis, and pelvic fractures. People with a penis curvature of more than 90 degrees should worry about hypospadias.

For middle-aged men and above, if the penis becomes more curved day by day, they should worry about whether it is "Pyronie's disease". This is an unexplained fibrosis of the tunica albuginea of ​​the penis and must be treated immediately. , to prevent the penis from becoming more and more curved.
