Curve After Implant

Postby kickit40 » Thu Mar 11, 2021 11:51 pm

I was implanted a little over 2 months ago and started to notice I am getting a left curve towards the head.

I am going back into the doc soon but he feels it's the ratio of my glans to my girth (about 6") causing the bend in my curve.

Has anybody had issues like this?

Do you cylinders inflate the same from flaccid or does one inflate faster than the other? Do you have pain anywhere?

I had severe peyronies issue. My first implant was a titan. Straightened me out totally even my natural curve. I had some issues with a hernia and needed a revision. My new doc only does ams.he put the 700 in. At one year I have my natural curve back.

If I have another one, I am going back to the titan.
18 cm plus 1 rte titan installed March 2019. Revision March 2020 by Dr. Andrew Todd, Richmond KY. He replaced the titan with an AMS 700 LGX 18 cm cylinder plus 2 rte for 20 cm total length.

I have a Titan implant and even when flaccid I still have the curve to the left.

I won't call it pain, more discomfort in the perineum area when fully inflated.

Can you follow your cylinders down under your scrotum to the ends of the cylinders and feel any difference? Is the end of the right cylinder where you feel discomfort?

My glans curves a bit to the left when I'm not inflated, which I believe is due to the approximately 0.80" disc of calcified Peyronie's plaque that was broken free during modeling while my implant was being installed. Once inflated though, I'm straight as an arrow. The left curve is not due to pulling but rather I believe the tunica has a defect under that disc of plaque and doesn't pull as tightly as the other side.

It's more of a curiosity for me than worrisome. I pull back on the skin on the right and my glans is straight.

I am having a hard time finding the cylinders under my scrotum. I can cycle at full throttle for closer to an hour now with minimal discomfort.

I have an appointment in about 10 days with the doc, hopefully can get some answers.

Lots of reasons I can think of for that. But a doctor should be able to find the answer. And Clavell has a good reputation. Really difficult to say with out having a doctor look at it and check things out. Mine is less of a curve and more of pointing to the left from the base.

There is a bit of a curve in the right cylinder but less than you have. Again many things can cause this so your doctor is the one that can help you best. Good luck and keep up the cycling work.
