PEYRONIE'S DISEASE QUESTIONNAIRE. Peyronie's disease is a connective tissue disorder of the penis that can be likened to arthritis. It is characterized by the triad of bent erections, pain in the penis with erections and palpable penile plaque. Peyronie's disease is quite common, affecting as much as 1 in 11 men despite the lack of public awareness.
For many men, Peyronie's disease also causes stress and anxiety. In a small percentage of men, Peyronie's disease goes away on its own. But in most cases, it will remain stable or worsen. Treatment might be needed if the curvature is severe enough that it prevents successful sexual intercourse.
