Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Methamphetamine is a central nervous system stimulant that may be used to treat a variety of psychiatric problems including attention deficit.Among its side effects, muscle stiffness has been described.This may affect penile muscles.However, if a side effect of this drug, you will get it in the course of the treatment and more muscles may be affected not only penile muscles.

A probable cause of you symptom is Peyronie’s disease which is the hardening of tissue (fibrosis) in the penis. A lump or plaque (scar tissue) forms on the lining of the erectile tissue which holds much of the blood in the penis during erection.The cause of this condition may be unknown.

I will suggest you see a Urologist to examine your penis and investigate what may be causing the symptoms you describe.
Hope my answer will help
Regards
