Default Peronies?

Been using tri-mix, not too much. Maybe once a week. Was on bi-mix
before that.

Tonight, I noticed a "dent" on one side of the penis. Also, inside,
there felt like a piece of cartilage, though I know there is none.

Anyway, can't remember a dent before.

I've read a description that says it is "fibrotic" tissue.
Cartilage is one kind of fibrotic tissue. It is tissue, usually
non-living (i.e., made up of fibrous material produced by cells
but exported outside the cells, that is stiff and strong.

Fibers are produced by the body for all sorts of reasons, but
fibrotic tissue that appears where it doesn't belong can be
manufactured by the body as a protection as a result of an
injury. Perhaps the way a tree produces bark to cover an injury
is a reasonably analogy (real biologists are probably rolling
their eyes at that one.)

X-rays can cause fibrosis. Injuries during sex, often not
noticed, can also cause it.

And bimix and trimix can cause it. Wish they'd told me what to check
for to see if it was developing. Supposedly it CAN go away after a
few months of not using the stuff.

Guess I'm off of all drugs for my recovery. I'll keep the walking and
hiking.

Real biologists don't eat quiche. They know what's in it.
