Peyronie’s Disease Treatment
Consult with a experienced urologist in Lahore and Multan when you first notice pain or a change in shapeDOT Clinics Lahore is led by Dr. Faisal Ilyas while DOT Clinics Multan is supervised by Dr. Amjad, both experienced in advanced male urology care. Peyronie’s Disease treatment plans are fully personalized based on severity and erectile function using combination of modern non-surgical or surgical options for the best possible results.
Peyronie’s disease is treated with non-surgical options like Xiaflex injections and penile traction therapy to reduce curvature and pain especially in the early stage. Severe or advanced cases may require surgery or penile implants if there is significant curvature or erectile dysfunction. Treatment is selected based on disease phase and severity.
Can Peyronie’s disease heal without treatment?
Not everyone with Peyronie disease needs treatment. In some men, condition may settle without any intervention, but this happens in only about 13% of cases. But in most cases, the curve does not fully go away without treatment. Some men may notice small improvement, but noticeable bending usually remains. That’s why it’s important to see a doctor early. So it doesn’t get worse and proper treatment can be started on time.
Treatment
Treatment options for Peyronie's disease depend on how long it's been since you began having symptoms.It has two main symptoms of Peyronie's disease are acute phase and chronic phase.
Acute Phase Peyronie's Disease Treatment
During the acute phase when the condition is still active. This is the stage when patients often notice increasing penile curvature along with pain during erections. The phase can last up to 12 months. If the curve stops changing and pain improves condition normally moves into the stable phase.
At DOT Clinics treatment during this stage focuses on slowing progression reducing discomfort and protecting penile tissue.
Oral Medications
In early stage of Peyronie’s Disease oral medicines are used to help manage symptoms like pain and inflammation. These drugs do not directly remove scar tissue but they can support comfort and slow down worsening in some cases. Common oral options include:
- Anti-inflammatory medicines to reduce pain and swelling
- Vitamin E supports tissue healing
- Vitamin C for antioxidant support
- Vitamin B complex for nerve and tissue health
- Potassium para-aminobenzoate in selected cases to help reduce fibrosis
Penile Traction Therapy
Traction devices or vacuum Based systems are suggested in some cases. These help gently stretch the penis over time which may reduce curvature and also help manage shortening caused by the condition. Consistency is important for better results.
Injectable Treatment
Injectable treatment for Peyronie’s disease such as collagenase injections Xiaflex, which help break down the scar tissue plaque causing penile curvature. Other injectable options, such as verapamil and interferon may also be used to help soften plaques, reduce fibrosis and improve curvature in some patients.
RestoreX Penile Traction Device
RestoreX is an FDA-approved traction device specifically designed for Peyronie’s Disease. It allows controlled targeted stretching of the penis to help reduce curvature improve length, and enhance overall outcomes when used regularly. It is often recommended along with injections like Xiaflex for better results.
Collagenase Injection Therapy (Xiaflex Injection)
Peyronie’s Disease is treated with medication called Xiaflex collagenase clostridium histolyticum. It is an injection used to treat the scar tissue plaque that causes the penis to bend. We have seen good results with Xiaflex the patients recover from peyronie's disease. It helps patients reduce curvature by breaking down the scar tissue slowly over time.
Chronic Phase Peyronie's Disease Treatment
In chronic phase when the condition becomes stable. Pain generally disappears but curvature remains fixed. Treatment at this stage focuses on correcting shape and improving sexual function.
Collagenase injections are commonly used for stable moderate to severe curvature. The treatment works by breaking down the buildup of collagen protein in the scar tissue that causes the penis to curve. The process is done in multiple cycles. Each cycle includes injections into the plaque followed by guided penile modeling by a specialist. Patients are also advised on gentle home exercises for several weeks between sessions.
Surgical Treatment Options
When curvature is severe and non-surgical options are not enough then surgery is recommended. The choice depends on the degree of curvature and erectile function.
Penile Plication Surgery
This procedure straightens the penis by placing sutures on the opposite side of the curve. It is normally recommended for mild to moderate curvature. It is a simple procedure with success rates and less impact on erectile function. But a small reduction in length can happen because the penis is straightened by tightening the long side.
Plaque Incision and Grafting Surgery
For more severe curvature hard plaque may be cut or removed and replaced with a graft material. This approach is used in cases with significant bending or complex defects. It can help regain shape and length better than other techniques.
Penile Prothesis Implants
Penile implant surgery for Peyronie’s disease involves placing a device inside the penis that fills the erectile tissue and helps achieve an erection. There are two main types: semirigid implants which can be bent up or down, and inflatable implants with a scrotal pump. This surgery is often recommended for men who also have erectile dysfunction. In most cases additional procedures are done to correct curvature. Recovery is usually a few days and sexual activity is typically continued after 4 to 8 weeks.
Choosing the Right Treatment
At DOT Clinics treatment for Peyronie’s Disease is never the same for everyone. Each patient is carefully examined before deciding the best option. The aim is to choose a safe and successful plan based on your specific condition. Key factors are:
- Degree of Curvature: How much the penis is bent
- Duration of Condition: How long the problem has been present
- Pain or Discomfort Level: Whether there is pain during erections
- Erectile Function: Strength and quality of erections
- Patient Preference: What treatment does the patient feels comfortable with
In many cases combination of treatments like injections with traction therapy gives better results than using only one option.
Early and accurate diagnosis at Dot Clinics is critical to implement effective medical therapies at time to improve the outcomes and quality of life.
What happens if I don’t treat it
The condition may stay the same or worsen over time, especially in the early active phase. Without treatment, the curvature or symptoms can become more noticeable and may start affecting daily comfort or sexual activity. In some cases, it can also impact confidence and overall quality of life. Early check up and management can help prevent and helpful outcomes.
