What Causes Stinging Pain And Shrivelling Of Penis And Scrotum?

Approximately two to three times a day, my penis and scrotum actually shrivels up and I get a stinging sensation in my penis. When this occurs, my penis occasionally darkens in color but returns to normal. It is very uncomfortable especially when I sit. I am 50 years old, 5' 7" and 190 lbs. I have had prostate issues for the past five years. My doctor has been unable to give me a satisfactory explanation for the above symptoms. Your help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank You for your assistance.

Hi,

Actually there seems no physical disease.it may be just psychological feelings. It may be called body dysmorphosis. There is misbelief of changing the size of penis. The stinging sensation may be psychological. You may consult the dermatologist or psychiatrist for such issue. Psychotherapy or psychological councelling might improve the condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
