Is it permissible, Islamically, to use a medicine that corrects and lengthens the penis, if the therapist recommends it, to correct the curvature, fracture, and shortness of the penis resulting from an old accident?

Changing Allah's creation is forbidden by the Qur'an and Sunnah, as Allah Almighty says, recounting Iblis's words: "And I will surely mislead them and I will surely incite desires in them and I will surely command them so they will slit the ears of cattle and I will surely command them so they will change the creation of Allah." And in the Hadith: "May Allah curse the women who tattoo and those who have themselves tattooed, and the women who pluck their eyebrows, and those who separate their teeth for beauty, altering Allah's creation." If the correction of the penis's shape or the increase of its length is not through surgery, but by taking medications and drugs, then it falls under permissible growth, as long as it does not lead to harm. Therefore, there is no objection to using the mentioned medication.
