Patient's question:
I have developed phimosis, and it causes significant pain during sexual intercourse, with the penis bending upwards, which greatly affects sexual life. Duration of onset and symptoms: 2 yearsDoctor's answer:
Hello, penile plaques are a connective tissue proliferative disease that occurs between the two layers of the corpora cavernosa. They should be differentiated from penile cancer, balanoposthitis, penile tuberculosis, and penile sclerosing lymphangitis. Penile plaques are more common in middle-aged men, and the cause or etiology remains unclear. One or more cord-like or oval-shaped plaques can be felt on the dorsal or root of the penis, ranging in size from small like green beans to large like peanuts. When the penis is flaccid, there are no discomfort symptoms, but during erection, there may be local. Small plaques have no impact on erection, while larger plaques can obstruct penile erection, causing the penis to bend. In severe cases, it can affect sexual life. You can go to a professional urological hospital for relevant examinations and then adopt heat therapy, radiotherapy, oral vitamin E, local injection of hormone drugs, and the external application of traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation and resolve stagnation, as well as to soften and resolve hard plaques.
