Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

LI-ESWT group

The patients in this arm will be subjected to Penile LI-SWT in the following parameters: 6 to 12 sessions with 1500 shocks per session. Each session will comprise the application of 300 shock waves (energy intensity of 0.09 mJ/mm2) to each of five different sites on the penis: three along the penile shaft and two at the crura with Frequency: 4 HZ. Energy level: 8 mJ/mm2. Rate: 120 shocks per minute. -Intervals: 2 treatment sessions per week for 3 weeks, then 3-weeks no-treatment interval, then 3-weeks treatment period of 2 treatment sessions per week.

DRUG

PDE-5 inhibitors group
