Peyronie’s disease
Bent Penis
Why does my penis bend?
The main symptom of Peyronie’s disease is the formation of flat scar tissue called plaque. This scar tissue can generally be felt through the skin.
Plaque may gather calcium and become very hard. Scar tissue might cause painful erections, soft erections, or severe curvature.
Scar tissue on a certain part of the penis reduces elasticity in that area.
