Was wondering if implants work regardless of your issue? Lets say fractures, Peyronie's, vascular issues etc. Or is it mainly for ED from Prostate Cancer?
I injured my penis a couple of months ago and while I haven't given up on it yet I'm researching future back up plans. Have been reading quite a lot here for the last few days. Seems that if push comes to shove, an implant isn't really that bad!
Will implant work for all conditions?

It works for all types of ed.

Re: Will implant work for all conditions?
I even read a story about a guy who had his penis amputated as a kid that got an implant.
Implanted by Dr. Andrew Kramer 2/22/17. 18 cm AMS LGX with 2 cm RTE's (total 20cm).
Activated 3/11/17. Best decision I've ever made.

Short answer is, yes.
But getting an implant for some conditions curable by lesser means is like unto swapping an engine when all you need is a valve job. Overkill for many conditions.
If oral medications work, they are superior to implants on several counts

Re: Will implant work for all conditions?
Good to hear. How about if you have damaged vessels around your glans so this doesn't get as hard as usually...will that be fixed with the implant as well?
How about crookedness, will implant surgery make it straight?

I am not any sort of medical professional, so take all I say as lay opinion. I have read a lot over the past 6 months since I decided to get serious about treating my condition.
Implant does nothing for the glans. Corpus cavernosum vs corpus spongiosum. Look them up.
Crookedness: Peyronie's disease? Yes, an implant can treat that. Other, less problematic/drastic treatments are available, too.

But if the Tunica is damaged, how would the implant help with that? The scar tissue would still be there causing problems?

Even with a damaged tunica, the implant can force straightening. The Coloplast is favored for this as it is stiffer when inflated (as well as being stiffer when deflated) than the AMS devices.
