In the Acute phase of Peyronie’s disease, the disrupted or injured penile tissue is painful to varying degrees, sexual engagement may be painful and there may be early signs of erectile curvature or unusual erectile shaping and nodules (knots, lumps or bumps) under the penile skin may be felt with or without an erection. This Acute phase is often anticipated to occur for about 12-18 months prior to the Chronic phase.
