After my implantation, I noticed my shaft is twisted towards the left side and points at an angle to the left. When I asked my surgeon about it, he said not to worry, that a slight angle (less than 20 degrees) and some axial twist won’t affect my sex life (what BS!), and that my partner won’t mind (another BS). When I pressed for an explanation, he seemed frustrated and just said, “I don’t know,” adding that I’m worrying about trivial things and should focus on preventing infection in the weeks after surgery.
Any insights or advice from others who’ve experienced something similar would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Shaft twisted axially and pointing left
My Boston Scientific Tactra malleable device was implanted 3 weeks ago tomorrow and is exactly the same; twisted axially and pointed down to the left in somewhat of a banana curve. I see my surgeon today but am wondering if maybe the penis is intentionally placed in that position after surgery so as not to be fully extended and reduce tension on the corpectomy sutures?

Can’t be happier, for over 9 years the Coloplast Titan not only provided me with endless pleasure but I’m absolutely confident again when sex is on the menu.

My first Rigicon mallabble implanted 6-2023 and revised 6-2024 for being undersized did not have that issue. This one is almost impossible to bend I'm hoping it gets easier as I work it back and forth in different positions.
