Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose:Please let me know that when I usually get an erection, my penis tends to curve upwards significantly, with an estimated angle of 120-130 degrees. It takes effort to press it down to around 90 degrees. Additionally, it often leans slightly to the side, about 10 degrees. Is this condition normal?
Doctor's answer:
Penile curvature is divided into two types: one is curvature in the anterior-posterior direction, and the other is curvature in the left-right direction. It can be physiological, congenital, or caused by pathological factors. Pathological penile curvature can be corrected through surgical intervention. This type of surgery requires high technical expertise and should be performed in specialized hospitals with the necessary conditions. Generally, if the upward curvature angle after penile erection is less than 40 degrees, and the downward or lateral curvature angle is less than 30 degrees, with satisfactory sexual life, surgery is not necessary.I’m not sure about your specific situation. If you have any doubts, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly for examination and diagnosis. Treatment should be pursued only after a clear diagnosis has been established.
