Many men encounter common penis problems. These include dry, itchy, rough or red penis' skin, diminished or loss of penis sensitivity, and an erect penis that is bent or curved. To avoid these common penis problems, men are advised to observe healthy sexual practices and use a daily penis health crème (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) which provides the vitamins, minerals and nutrients necessary to maintain penis health.
Of these penis health issues, men are especially bothered when they notice something different with the appearance of their penis. A slightly bent or curved penis is one such concern. So is this a serious problem?
Unfortunately, it can become a serious problem. A slight bend or curve in an erect penis can sometimes get worse and cause pain or difficulty during sexual intercourse. It is, however, possible for men to prevent this condition from worsening by being aware of some of the causes of a curved erect penis. For instance, they should be wary when a sexual partner is “on top” during sexual intercourse as there is ample opportunity to bend the penis. They should also be careful when having intercourse and try to avoid accidentally thrusting the penis against the peripheral bone of the vagina as this can also bend the penis. With repeated bending of the penis during sex or from aggressive masturbation, the penile connective tissue can be severely damaged and may eventually result in a permanent bend or curve of the erect penis.
What are the other causes of a bent or a curved penis?
The following are some additional factors which may cause this problem:
1. Congenital factor. It is considered congenital when the slight curvature of the penis occurred from birth. In many cases, this does not pose a serious problem. But there are some who experienced pain and difficulty during sexual intercourse.
2. Wearing of very tight underwear and sleeping on one's stomach. These two factors haven't been proven clinically, but they may also contribute to the development of a slightly bent or curved penis as they can restrict or limit the flow of blood, which contains oxygen and other nutrients, going to the penis.
3. Trauma. Accidents can cause severe and permanent damage to the tissues inside the penis and thus, may result in its stunted growth or abnormal curve. Such trauma can happen during sexual intercourse, or masturbation, or can be caused by direct injury to the penile area.
4. Use of Medications. The use of certain medications may result in some side-effects inside the body. It is thus, important for men complaining of having curved penis to disclose what medications they're currently taking when consulting a specialist.
5. Peyronie's disease. Peyronie's disease is a disorder where fibrous plaques develop inside the penile tissues preventing the penis to lengthen and causing it to curve abnormally when erect. This disease is often accompanied by pain, making it difficult, and sometimes impossible, for men to perform sexual intercourse.
What are the treatment procedures in correcting the curved penis?
Men with curved penis are often advised not to ignore the problem. They should be assessed by a specialist in order to determine its cause, prevent its progression, and decide on the proper treatment to take. Although surgery is the best procedure to correct the bent or curved penis, many specialists suggest it only as the last course of action due to its complications. And also because there are patients who have shown improvements without undergoing an invasive procedure.
Prevention, in this case, is still the best option. Since knowing that trauma to the penile tissues is one of the causes for the erect penis to bend or curve, men can avoid such actions which can lead to their damage. They should also include a daily application of penis specific vitamins and minerals such as those found in penis health cremes (health professionals recommend Man1 Man Oil) to maintain a penis that is healthy, strong and resistant to injury.
