What Does Feeling Of Hard Mass Under Skin Penis During Masturbation Indicate?
Question: I feel some type of hard substance under the skin of my penis that hurts when I masturbate
Brief Answer:
it is normal finding of the spermatic cord
Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
The substance under your penis skin that you are feeling are probably cords which are present normally there and also get tensed with your penis when you masterbate.
This is a normal thing. In case you find it excessively hard and tender or painful to touch you would require a Penile Ultrasound to see for any evidence of excessive cord thickening or any evidence of epididymoorchitis.
However I would advise you at present not to take it into consideration.
Just take it normal.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.

Ok, thank you.. It dosnt hurt, only when I masturbate. But it has never done this before, that is my concern. Should I give it a break and it will get back to normal? Could I have damaged something? It seems to be right at the spot where my fingers grip the hardest. Sorry for the embarrassing question and can you elaborate on what that "e" word condition is? Again, thank you for your help.
Brief Answer:
Relax. Don't worry.
Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Nothing to worry as such. As I have explained you that the structure you are feeling is probably spermatic cord that is there in normal people.
Masturbation has no effect on all this. You have not injured or damaged any thing.
That E condition is inflammation of the testes and the related linings and the spermatic cord.
But at this point you don't need to think about that.
Just relax. Wait for 15 days and then write back to me.
