Peyronie disease involves a localized and progressive fibrosis of unknown origin that affects the tunica albuginea (i.e., the tough, fibrous sheath that surrounds the corpora cavernosa) of the penis. The manifestations of Peyronie disease include painful erection, bent erection, and the presence of a hard mass at the site of fibrosis. Approximately two thirds of men complain of pain as a symptom. Discharge and lesions from the penis is usually caused from infections or STDs. Thick, nonretractable foreskin of uncircumcised male is associated with balanitis xerotica obliterans.
