Penile fibrosis

Penile fibrosis is a condition where scar tissue develops inside the penis, leading to thickening and hardening of tissue. This can cause curvature, shortening, or discomfort during erections, and may affect sexual function. It often results from injury, inflammation, or repetitive trauma, and is commonly associated with Peyronie’s disease. The scar tissue replaces healthy elastic tissue, making the penis less flexible. Treatment options include medications, injections, or surgery, depending on severity. Early diagnosis and management can help improve symptoms and preserve function.
