Changed Penis shape: This outcome would be worrisome and you should seek help from the surgeon or a good urologist. As a physician hearing this outcome I have numerous questions, such as do you have pain? Is anything swollen? Is the penis showing any sign of a blood clot (a hardness somewhere in the shaft when it is flaccid?).

Probably not: You may have peyronie's disease. I would see a urologist to confirm. It's bening, and related to blood clotting on the dorsal veins of the penis.

Unlikely: You may have peyronie's. We don't know the cause but there are lots of treatment options available including a promising biological agent the fda is currently reviewing.
