Medications are often used when the curve in your penis is still in the early stages, or if you aren’t healthy enough for surgery or don’t want it. The goal of medication is to stop tough tissue (plaque) from forming, ease the pain, and help lessen the curve of your penis. Medication can be taken by the mouth or with injections to the penis, or by applying to the skin (topical treatments).
