[edit] A

A resized image exists as Peyronie_penis.jpg.jpg, should someone find a need for it. I used to use it in the actual article, but someone gave some good points to why it should be hidden behind a link. If you disagree, I'm impartial, so do as you will. Is there any policy on nudity? --cprompt


I requested permission to use the image, but forgot to post it. The image was posted before permission was received, (and before I was very familiar with how Wikipedia works). Now, we're in the clear. :-)

The references on this article are inadequate, but I leave the information here because I do not know how to add it to the Article. I hope someone will kindly do this. Because of inadequate references in this Article, it took me much longer to research this topic.
