Doing a self-examination often can help you to detect Peyronie’s disease as well as other concerns (like testicular cancer). The earlier you can detect Peyronie’s, the easier it is to treat it as a soft tissue injury.

Take one minute while in the shower to:
Check your balls for lumps, bumps, and changes in shape
Check your penis for any bending/curvatures, rotation, or hard or calcified skin

Dr. Jo Milios is a Titled Clinical Researcher and Men’s Health Physiotherapist (MACP) who has a special interest in Prostate Cancer.  Dr. Jo has presented the research findings from her PhD at many international conferences including the World Confederation of Physical Therapy (WCPT), Asia-Pacific Prostate Cancer Conferences (APCC),  Australian (APA) & American Physiotherapy Association’s (APTA).

We cover topics like:
Why Peyronie's is commonly thought to be caused by penile injury or a buckling effect, yet only ~10% of men recall an incident
Connection between Pyronie’s and treatment for prostate cancer or other pelvic surgery (like hernia repairs and bowel surgery)
Connection between Peyronie’s and cardiovascular changes (like heart disease and diabetes)
Injuries during sex that have caused Peyronie’s in younger men
The low down on treatments you should be considering if you’ve been diagnosed: therapeutic ultrasound, pumps, traction devices, medications, and more.

If you’ve been diagnosed, what are the treatment options for Peyronie’s? In addition to pumps, traction devices, and medications, Dr. Jo’s research on the effectiveness of therapeutic ultrasound has been shown to be an extremely effective and gentle treatment for Peyronie’s that any physical therapist can use.
