Penile Curvature
Some men experience a normal curvature of the penis. Their erect penis may bend in an upward or downward curve or to one side of the body. A bent penis is a rather common condition. After all, penises vary in size and shape. It can cause significant stress and anxiety between men and their sexual partners. Unless a bent penis causes pain or interferes with sexual intercourse, it is usually not a serious problem.
What causes penile curvature?
- Scar tissue inside the penis from past trauma (Peyronie’s Disease)
- Congenital abnormality
