Causes

Causes of Peyronie's disease is not fully understood, but it may be involved in the development of many factors. It is assumed that normally Peyronie's disease is the result of rupture of small blood vessels in the penis. For example, the penis may be damaged during sex, sports, or in an accident. During the healing process of blood cells and other cells collect at the site of injury, resulting in the formation of scar tissue. However, not all men injured penis, Peyronie's disease develops. It is believed that the inherited characteristics of an organism can play a role in how each individual person is exposed to this violation.

On each side of the penis is a tube, the structure resembles a sponge (corpus cavernosum), where there are a plurality of tiny blood vessels. When sexual excitement the blood flow to the cavernous bodies increased. They are filled with blood, the penis expands, rises - to achieve an erection. Each cavernous cavernous body is surrounded by a shell; These membranes are stretched during erection. Trauma can damage the penile tissue tunica. If the effects of trauma are treated properly, they do not cause long-term problems. Peyronie's disease problems in the healing process of injuries give rise to permanent scarring. That portion of the tunica albuginea, which formed scar tissue loses its elasticity. Therefore, changing the shape of the penis, and during erection man often experiences pain.

Peyronie's disease, which develops slowly, it may not be related to trauma. The researchers suggest that in some cases it is caused by abnormalities in the immune system The immune system - how it works? .

• Aging. The likelihood of developing Peyronie's disease increases with age. Because of age-related changes in the tissue increases the likelihood of damage, and the probability of successful cure, on the contrary, reduced.
• Several other diseases, smoking, prostate surgery, can also increase the risk of Peyronie's disease.
