Penis Stretching for Peyronie’s Disease Treatment

Penis stretcher in Peyronie’s disease treatment

 

Here is a post that I recently entered on a Peyronie's disease forum in response to a man’s comment that he wore a particular penis traction device for three months and noticed no change in his condition.   This information about this manual therapy that works well with other Peyronie's disease natural treatments found on the PDI website.

 

Greetings estep32002,

 

I have read your post about the penis stretching or penis traction device for Peyronies treatment.

 

Previously, I have written to this forum in the negative about these penis traction devices. I have done so because of repeated communications I receive from men who have Peyronie's disease, who tell me of their lack of success. They tell me of their inability to wear these penis stretcher devices because of built-in design flaws, and their experience of being injured by these stretchers. All that I learn tells me they do not help Peyronie's disease as the sellers say they do.

 

Actually, I think you are somewhat unusual in your ability to have worn or used one for three months. Men tell me they cannot stand to put one on for longer than a half hour. They say they get bruised and develop sores after a few minutes or a few hours of use.

 

One fellow recently told me he wore his expensive model for ten minutes and never put it back on again. Another poor guy admitted to me he has three of them sitting in a drawer, and they all hurt him badly. He thought if bought a better and more expensive one, he would eventually find one that he could use. Three stretchers later, no such luck.

 

If you could wear such a device long enough to actually stretch the soft tissue of the penis, that does not mean the more rigid and more dense tissue of the Peyronies plaque would also stretch. When I was first introduced to the idea of using a penis traction device to treat Peyronie's disease, it did not make sense to me. I figured that the only thing that could eventually happen – if all went well – would be that the penis would be larger, but it would still exhibit the PD plaque with the related curvature that it causes. Let me explain.

 

Just as a chain breaks at its weakest link, a penis that has a Peyronies plaque in it will primarily stretch from the normal, healthy tissue. The normal tissue will stretch sooner and farther than the plaque material can respond to the stretching force. Think of it this way: A roll of toilet paper tears at the perforations because that is a point of weakness in the paper. Here's another example: Remember when automobile tires had inner tubes? Remember what would happen if you blew it up with air, if it had a weak spot in the rubber wall of the inner tube? Sure. The weak part would bubble up or swell up because it was weaker than the normal strong part. The weaker part would stretch under pressure before the strong part of the rubber had a chance to stretch.

 

In Peyronie's disease stretching the weaker tissue is the softer normal tissue, while the stronger tissue is the plaque that contains all the dense fibrous materials. When someone with PD stretches his penis, most or all of the lengthening will come from the more flexible and weaker tissue, not the scar tissue. The scar will not be altered because it cannot participate in the stretch, because the traction force is used up by the normal tissue.

 

When I ask these traction device makers a few simple questions exactly how their penis enlargement products can help Peyronies, I never receive answers back from them. I ask about the pain and tissue erosion created by the pressure that is applied to hold onto the penis head, and again I get no reply. I think this says a lot

 

There are safer and more effective ways to stretch the penis, to reduce the PD plaque material, than applying a mechanical appliance that smashes down on the glans to hold the penis. Peyronie's disease is a complicated and stubborn problem to treat. I have been personally involved with PD for about seven years now, since having the happy experience of developing a pretty nasty case of it. In that time I have learned a lot and helped many men along the way. My advice is to be very careful with these mechanical penis stretcher products. TRH

 

What I did not mention in that Peyronie’s disease forum response is that the safer and more effective way to stretch the penis was developed by me while working with 10 men who I knew who were customers of the Peyronie’s Disease Institute.

Biggest Peyronie’s Disease Treatment Mistake You Can Make

Learn from others about Peyronie's treatment

What’s the biggest fundamental mistake I see men make while undergoing conservative Peyronie’s treatment? This is a good question, because if you are making this mistake it could be sabotaging your success right now.

Men with Peyronie's disease say they want to recover. They all say they will do anything to get their lives back in order again. I hear it all the time. Yet, when I suggest things to do, additional ideas or strategies that often make a difference, I get a different reply from these same men.

As we communicate, I often hear and see a lot of indecision and lack of commitment to getting well. What I really see in my dealing with a wide variety of men is that they want to get over their Peyronie’s disease, if it is:
1. Easy
2. Fast
3. Guaranteed
4. Inexpensive
5. Convenient

Of this list of five reservations, the one that always interests me the most is #3, the one requiring that any PDI treatment must be “guaranteed.” I ask myself, “What in all of medicine can be realistically and honestly guaranteed?” and the answer is absolutely nothing.

I had some dental work the other day to extract a badly cracked tooth. I asked the dentist if he thought he could get the entire tooth with roots out of the socket. He said, “No, I can't say that. I just don't know ahead of time. If that root breaks off, you will need a dental surgeon to have the jaw opened to remove that nasty little root.” Did you ever notice that when you get some work done by your dentist, he asks you repeatedly how numb you are? Your dentist does this because he/she has absolutely no way to guarantee the exact effectiveness of a simple Novocain shot. You must be asked continually how much numbness was created, and how much pain you are having, because something as simple and direct as a Novocaine shot represents an unknown outcome, with no guarantee.

I doubt you can find an MD alive who would guarantee that the high blood pressure prescription – or even an aspirin – he prescribes for you will work. Since this is a Peyronie’s disease forum, I doubt you can find a surgeon alive who would guarantee before surgery that your curvature would be straightened, or that your Peyronie’s disease would not return in a few years. No doctor guarantees any outcome of treatment for a specific tissue response because the body does not operate that way.

Yet, because of all these goofy advertisements that surround Peyronie’s disease, you and I are all bombarded with “guarantees” of how effective a secret herb from India is to “cure” the Peyronie’s plaque. Especially bad are all the mechanical penis stretchers that “guarantee” to reverse a bent penis. These mechanical penis stretcher companies are a great lot. They come and they go. They offer a simple solution, but from my observation and reports I get every day, most men simply cannot use these stretchers for more than a day or two before giving up because of the pain they cause.

One of the surest signs of a phony setup in Peyronie’s disease treatment is when you see a guarantee of results offered. when it comes to guarantees, caveat emptor, buyer beware.

Sorry to say, nothing about ANY Peyronie’s disease treatment from any source is easy, fast, guaranteed, inexpensive or convenient. It is tough work because Peyronie’s disease is one tough problem, and it is most stubborn to treat. That is why there is no formal Peyronie’s cure at this time. The trick in treating Peyronie’s disease successfully is that it requires you to personally be more stubborn and tenacious than your problem. It takes a made-up mind, with a high level of commitment to be successful over Peyronie’s disease. If you truly have one of those determined minds and you are prepared to do some serious work to help yourself, you are far closer to success with your Peyronie’s disease treatment plan.

Must go all out to get Peyronie's help

A half-hearted effort will get you nothing – I can guarantee you that! You must approach your treatment plan knowing it will not be easy, and any good progress will take time and dedication. Dig in for the long road, and you will avoid discouraging yourself. On the other hand, you must also be realistic in your expectations concerning how long it will take to see results and your anticipated degree of eventual improvement.

You need to remember you are working to make yourself healthier and stronger so you can correct your own Peyronie’s disease problem, you are not looking in vain for a Peyronie’s cure. It’s as simple as that.

If you are truly serious about correcting your Peyronie’s disease, you must be ready to commit to work hard to strengthen your immune response. Give your body the time and opportunity it needs to heal like the 50% group whose Peyronie’s disease corrects on its own. Without true commitment and dedication to the task, it is almost impossible to succeed.

Largest Peyronie’s Disease Treatment Mistake

Do Peyronie's treatment correctly for best results

What’s the biggest fundamental mistake I see men make while trying to treat their Peyronie’s disease?  This is a good question, because if you are making this mistake it could be sabotaging the success of your Peyronie’s disease treatment right now.

Their mistake is that they will only undergo an Alternative Medicine treatment of Peyronies if it is guaranteed.   They never stop to think or realize that no doctor in his right mind will guarantee any form of treatment, especially Peyronie’s disease.

Most men say they want to recover from their Peyronie’s disease.  They say they will do anything to get their lives back in order again.  I hear it all the time.  Yet, when I suggest things to do, such as additional ideas or strategies to follow that often make a difference, I get a different reply from these same men.

When we communicate, I often hear and see a lot of indecision and lack of commitment to getting well.  What I really see in my dealing with a wide variety of men is that they want to get over their Peyronie’s disease, but only if the therapy is:
1.  Easy
2.  Fast
