Peyronie’s Disease: A Lesser-Known Issue of Erectile Dysfunction
Peyronie’s disease is a disorder in which the penis bends or curves due to plaque, or lumps, that form inside the penis. Depending on where the plaque is located, the penis can bend in a variety of ways. In some cases, plaques develop on both the top and bottom of the shaft causing the penis to become “dented” and shortened.
