Peyronie’s disease?

I am experiencing some symptoms that I believe could be caused by Peyronie’s disease. As you can imagine, these symptoms are worrying and slightly anxiety-inducing.

Doctors can usually diagnose Peyronie's disease based on a physical examination. The plaque can be felt when the penis is limp. Full evaluation, however, may require examination during erection to determine the severity of the deformity. The erection may be induced by injecting
medicine into the penis or through self-stimulation. Some patients may eliminate the need to induce an erection in the doctor's office by taking a digital or Polaroid picture at home
