Introduction and Background To Penis Curves

According to statistics, a penis curve afflicts between 1 and 3 percent of men. It is one of the most common penile conditions today.

Known as a curved or bent penis, the penis curve can post serious problems to a man’s sexual organ and sex life. Among men, the word “bend” is often interchanged with “curve.”

But medical experts explain a penis bend is the most severe condition of a penis curve because it usually has a scar tissue like that of a Peyronie’s Disease. A penis with a simple curve almost has no scar tissue.

Defining the penis curve

A penis curve refers to the abnormal bend that a penis does when it is erect.

Signs and Symptoms of a Penis Curve

 A few symptoms include:

  • Having difficulty in penetrating the penis in a sexual intercourse
  • Pain in erection
  • The penis bends during erection
  • The penis narrows during erection

Causes of a Penis Curve

 Medical experts cite the following as the common causes of penis curve.

  • Genetics. Some men are born with congenital curvature or develop it during the first several weeks following the birth. In some cases, the penis curves are corrected without due treatment. But in others, the penis curves become more remarkable during growth especially in puberty when the penis is at its growth peak thanks to increased production of testosterone.
  • Physical Injury or Trauma. A penis is vulnerable to injury despite the absence of bones in it. Accidents during sex or landing on one’s penis can cause damage to the penis stunting its growth or causing a tendency in the penis to curve while growing.
  • Tight clothing. Tight clothing can obstruct the penis when it is erect. In such case, the penis is restricted or immobilized or cause it to turn to a side to conceal the bulge. These conditions can interfere with enlargement because the blood circulation is also obstructed—more blood flowing to one side compared to the other.
  • Laying on the Stomach. Sex gurus advise the young ones to sleep on their back to avoid the “compression” impact on the penile blood vessels, resulting in a reduced blood supply. Needless to say, this will lead to stunted growth in the penis.
  • Peyronie’s Disease. Peyronie’s Disease is a primary cause of penis curve. It is a degenerative disease that can get worse when left without treatment.
  • Other causes. There are also medical conditions or illness that can cause penis curve. These are:
  • Hypospadias. It is genetic apenis abnormality.
  • Urethral Stricture. It is the obstruction of the urethra.
  • Dupuytren’s Contracture. It is a condition where the palm of the hands develops a cord-like thickening.

 The Occurrence of the Penis Curve

 According to medical experts, the natural curve develops when the two penile chambers grow at varying rates over the years. In this case, the penis bends toward the chamber that is slow in developing.

The Direction of the Penis Curve

 Mostly, the penis curves upward or sideward. In some cases, the penis curves downward even when it is erect. The deformed penis is visible to the eye and can render sexual penetration rather painful. In another case, the penis will bear the shape of an hourglass.

Why does the Penis Curve only When Erect?

 The penis curves during erection due to the following reasons:

  • A portion of the penis skin opposite the curve has been stretched.
  • The penis sustains a scar tissue.
  • The section of the penis causing the curve has lesser skin compared to the entire penis.

 Can the Penis Curve Cause Complications?

 If the penis curve is not given due medical attention, the condition can get worse resulting in an inability to engage in sexual intercourse and difficult or painful sexual encounter. Impotence is also likely to occur.

Is Penis Curve Curable?

 A SizeGenetics Penis traction device is an effective solution to treating a penis curve. The device will stretch the section of the penis bearing the scar tissue to make it even. There is also the topical cream with verapamil to cause the scar tissue to break up. Surgery is another option to consider, but this should be the last recourse.
