Hi,

Your history is indicative of a classical presentation of a condition called Peyronie's disease.
- Consult your Urologist for clinical examination
- I am not sure that this can be caused by any medicine
- The treatment will be as per the cause found
- Sometimes amenable to medicines like steroid
- May need surgical correction if you want considering the possibilities
- If there is local problem like a fibrous cord causing restriction as small surgery can be of great help
- Also get evaluated for prostate enlargement, Ultrasound, FNAC, PSA titre and get the proper management

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
