146: The Relaxback UK Show with Mike Dilke - Episode 146

Ever wondered how some health issues can be both a personal challenge and a wider health concern? In episode 146 of The Relaxback UK Show, host Mike Dilke chats with physiotherapist Leon Almashen from Man's Matters, tackling the often overlooked topic of Peyronie's disease. This condition, affecting men's potency and potentially leading to more serious health issues, is explored in-depth. You'll learn about its causes, including trauma and genetics, and the surprising links to lifestyle factors like smoking and obesity.

Leon offers insights into treatment options such as shockwave therapy and PRP injections, aiming to improve functionality rather than seeking a complete cure. Mike brings his usual humour and warmth to the conversation, sharing his own fitness journey with a Wattbike exercise programme that you can join in on via his YouTube channel. It's an engaging discussion that not only informs but also provides hope and support for those dealing with this condition.

So, what steps can you take if you're worried about Peyronie's disease or erectile dysfunction? Tune in to find out and maybe have a laugh along the way.
