• Active disease is characterized by dynamic and changing symptoms.
• Penile and/or glanular pain or discomfort with or without erection is the defining symptom of the active stage.
• Clinicians may offer extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) to improve penile pain.
• Treatment durations ranged from 4 to 6 weeks with typically 1 session per week; the number of shock waves (SWs) ranged from 2000 to 3000 and the mJ per mm² ranged from 0.25 to 0.29.
• Palmieri (2009) also reported that mean pain scores on a visual analog scale decreased more in the ESWT group (from 5.5 at baseline to 0.46 at 24 weeks) than in the placebo/sham group (from 5.2 at baseline to 2.7 at follow-up).
• Hatzichristodoulou (2013) reported that mean pain scores on a visual analog scale decreased more among ESWT patients (from baseline value of 4 to post-treatment value of 1.5) than among placebo/sham patients (from baseline value of 4 to post-treatment value of 3).
