A member asked:
Heard that if you have peyronies disease you could also have dupuytrens contractures. does peyronies disease cause this?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Both peyronie's disease and dupuytren's contracture are contractile issues with regard to fascia of the penis or palm respectively. They are both components of dupuytrens diathesis but one does not cause the other.

No: They are both fibromatoses and have the same genetic basis. Ledderhose Disease (lumps on the bottom of the feet) is the 3rd related problem.
