Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Penis Shaft
my boyfriend is 30 years old in great health he does smoke cigarettes and drink but other than that he is a very healthy man. he noticed a swell on his penis. it seems to be a vein on the shaft of his penis and on one end it has a little ball. he said it hurt a lot when he first noticed it but the pain has almost gone away. what could it possibly be?
It must be an injury caused either due to aggressive intercourse or masturbation, I recommend resting the region and avoid all sexual contact and masturbation for at least the next 2 weeks. Keep the region clean and dry at all times, and apply a warm compress over the region several times a day to promote healing. Wear loose comfortable inner wear, and avoid tight fitted clothes (E.g. jeans).
Best wishes.
