1. Treatment of Penile Sclerosis
Sclerosis of the penis, also known as cavernous fibrosis, has an unknown cause and is mostly seen in middle-aged and elderly people. About 20%~50% of the patients with this disease have the tendency of self-healing. Therefore, the method with small side effects should be selected during treatment. However, prolonged treatment can sometimes cause loss of sexual function. Common methods include:
1.1. Vitamin e, 100 mg, three times a day, for about 3-6 months.
1.2. For patients with short duration and young age, prednisone or cortisone can be dissolved in procaine and directly injected into the induration twice a week for 12 times, which can soften and reduce the induration.
1.3 Ultrasonic or infrared physiotherapy.
1.4. TCM treatment based on syndrome differentiation, such as Danshen Sanjie Decoction. Medical treatment must be carried out under the guidance of a specialist. After routine treatment, most of the symptoms can be relieved, but 10% of the patients have poor effect, requiring surgery to remove the induration and correct the curvature of the penis. If pathological impotence or other surgical treatment is ineffective, penis prosthesis can be used.
2. What disease is penile sclerosis
Sclerosis of the penis (also known as Peyronie's disease) was first reported in 1742 and often occurs in middle-aged and elderly men. When erecting, the patient's penis bends and has pain. The erection at the far end of the penis induration is not firm, and serious deformity affects sexual intercourse. There is no pain when the penis is weak.
During the examination, the penile body can touch the fibrous induration or cord-like mass of different sizes limited to the white membrane of the penile cavernous body, without tenderness, and the induration often occurs at the far end of the penile body.
3. Can penile sclerosis heal itself
The cause of sclerosis penis is not clear at present, and it is mostly seen in the elderly. Penile induration generally has a 20% to 50% chance of self-healing, but serious cases often cannot self-healing, or long-term failure to treat will lead to the loss of sexual function.
Therefore, penile induration should be treated under the condition of following the doctor's advice. Never take medicine or take medicine randomly. Usually, it can be cured. Don't be afraid once you find out that you have penile induration. You should go to a regular hospital for treatment in time, control your condition in time, and take corresponding treatment methods.
