Where shockwave fits
Shockwave may be considered for pain in the active phase of Peyronie’s disease. It should not be presented as a treatment to straighten curvature or remove plaques. Your specialist will discuss appropriate options.
Common questions
Does shockwave straighten Peyronie’s curvature?
European Association of Urology guidance advises against using shockwave to improve penile curvature. It may have a role in managing pain in the active phase, after clinical assessment.
What is discussed at a Peyronie’s disease consultation?
When symptoms started, any pain, how the curvature has changed and the effect on sexual function. Management depends on your individual assessment and the stage of the condition, and may be conservative or surgical.
