Peyronie’s Disease Exercises – Do They Work?
Are you wondering if Peyronie’s disease exercises can help with a curved or bent penis?
It’s estimated that 1 in 20 men suffer from Peyronie’s disease, so if you’re one of them, you’re not alone. If you’re looking for treatment, you’re probably feeling a little overwhelmed. With a range of treatments available, from surgical interventions and medications to exercises and non-surgical treatments, it can be hard to know what’s most suitable.
Many men start by looking at things they can do at home, and Peyronie’s disease exercises often come up in searches. But do they work?
Understanding Peyronie’s Disease
Peyronie’s disease is a condition resulting from scar tissue that develops on the penis and causes curved, painful erections.
All penises come in varying shapes and sizes, and a curve is not unnatural. However, the bend is significant for those suffering from Peyronie’s and may cause pain when erect.
The condition can prevent you from having sex and make it very difficult to get or maintain an erection.
Peyronie’s Disease Symptoms
The symptoms of this condition can include:
- Visible bumps – scar tissue can often be felt underneath the skin, making your penis look bumpy.
- Curved penis – the penis will have a significant bend or curve.
- Erection problems – either problems getting an erection or maintaining an erection.
- Shortening/narrowing penis – the scar formation pulls on the tissue and shortens it.
- Pain – this can be experienced with or without an erection but is most common whilst erect.
What Causes Peyronie’s Disease?
The cause is not entirely understood. However, it most commonly occurs after injury to the penis. An injury could occur from vigorous sexual activity, athletic activity, or an accident.
After an injury and during the healing process, scar tissue forms in a disorganised manner. It can become painful because the area affected by the scar tissue is unable to stretch properly. This causes your penis to bend and cause discomfort when erect.
Some of the suspected causes are:
- Repeated injury
- Connective tissue disorder
- Health conditions
- Hereditary factors
- Age
- Prostate surgery
Even though Peyronie’s disease affects 1 in 20 men, there’s still a lot of embarrassment when talking about it. And it’s because of this that men are reluctant to seek help from their doctors.
Peyronie’s sufferers often feel low moods, which can have a debilitating effect on relationships.
But the good news is that natural and non-invasive solutions can help you resolve the symptoms of Peyronie’s disease and regain lost confidence.

Peyronie’s Disease Exercises
You can do several exercises from the comfort of your own home, but the effectiveness often depends on how severe your Peyronie’s disease is. Because of this, it’s crucial to speak with a healthcare professional before starting something new.
Peyronie’s disease exercises are designed to help reduce the curvature of the penis and the hardness of the plaque that causes it.
Stretching exercises are reported to be the most effective. Some exercises use equipment, while others don’t. There are various Peyronie’s disease exercises to try, so you should find the right one to suit you.
It’s worth noting, however, that there is not much evidence to suggest that these exercises or products are effective. There is a huge range in reported outcomes; some men see a noticeable difference, while others don’t find it helpful at all.
What Peyronie’s Disease Exercises Are There?
Penile Stretching
Penile stretching exercises require you to use your hands or a device to increase the length or girth of your penis. It is a simple technique that you can do at home quite easily.
Manual stretching exercises involve using your hands to massage the tissue along the length of your penis. It stretches your skin and creates micro tears in the tissue, which will encourage your penis to heal straighter and sometimes will make your penis appear to look longer.
Jelqing is one stretching technique involving massaging the base of the penis in circular motions, slowly tightening the circle and applying pressure to the penis shaft. The idea is to inch closer to the penis head and repeat the cycle, reducing pressure if any pain is experienced. The theory behind it is that by stretching the penis, you’ll create tiny microtears in the tissues, stimulating the body to heal, however, there is very little evidence to support this approach as an effective method for treating Peyronie’s disease.
There are also penis stretching devices that can be used to help improve your results. At Elite, we recommend a penis stretching device called Phallosan Forte. You can learn more about it below..
Penile Traction Therapy
This can correct deformities and restore penile length. It uses a device that consists of a plastic support ring, a silicone band, and two dynamic rods, which cradle and stretch the penis to promote penile growth. This device can be used alongside Peyronie’s disease exercises. The Phallosan Forte mentioned above is a penile traction device that we recommend to our client.
Vacuum Erection Device
A VED device is a plastic tube operated by a battery or an electric pump. To use a VED, you place your erect penis inside the cylinder tub, and the suction gently pulls in your penis. It can be used as an aid with PD exercises as well as general erectile dysfunction, such as getting and maintaining an erection.
Penile Modelling
Penile modelling involves manually bending your penis in the opposite direction to its curve. This can be painful and could even worsen your Peyronie’s disease symptoms by creating more scar tissue in the penis.
Alternatives To Peyronie’s Disease Exercises
Peyronie’s disease exercises can be painful and often don’t have the effect you are hoping for. If you’re looking for a faster, more effective solution then a treatment such as the P-Shot could be right for you.
The P Shot is a non-surgical treatment that not only helps with the symptoms of Peyronie’s disease but also has a whole host of other benefits, too.
About The P-Shot
The P-Shot is a pioneering treatment that treats erectile issues such as Peyronie’s, impotence or the inability to maintain a firm erection. This treatment can correct a bend in the penis by helping to tackle plaque build-ups. Men who have the P-Shot have a higher success rate than those who just use Peyronie’s disease exercises.
The P-Shot uses platelet-rich plasma (found in your blood) to stimulate the growth of new, younger tissue and increases blood flow. PRP treatments have been used successfully to repair damaged muscles and nerves for many years.
And now, experts have found that using this same process, PRP treatments can ease Peyronie’s symptoms, giving men a successful and easy treatment option that doesn’t require invasive and painful surgery.
How Does It Work?
PRP contains cell-regenerating growth factors that are essential for treatment. The procedure works by taking a small amount of your blood, which is then spun at a high frequency within a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma (PRP).
Your doctor will inject the PRP into your treatment area. This might sound uncomfortable, but the whole procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so there is little to no pain. Read our previous blog “Does The P-Shot Hurt” to learn more about this…
By improving the blood supply and triggering tissue regeneration, patients notice an increase in the ability to get an erection and maintain the firmness of their erections.
At our award-winning clinic, Elite Aesthetics, we have an incredibly high success rate with around 84.2% of the men reporting a positive improvement in their symptoms.
Benefits Of The P-Shot
The benefits of the P Shot include:
- Straighter Penis
- Stronger, firmer erections
- Improved sexual stamina – it’s far easier to achieve and maintain erections
- Increased penile length and girth
- Improvement in or resolution of penile curvature from Peyronie’s Disease.
- No more painful erections
- More reliable outcomes than Peyronie’s disease exercises
