What Does Indicate Fishy Smell In Urine And Penis And Swelling In Groin Area?
Hi there, over the past few months I have noticed my urine and penis has been smelling rather fishy and more recently have developed swelling around the groin area and right hand side of my penis. The swelling is tender to touch and runs from the lymph node down to the penis. Also, the lymph node has inflamed in the same way it does in your neck when your glands inflame when suffering from a sore throat. Could the two problems be connected? And have you any ideas of the cause of these issues please?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having some infection in penile urethra like urethritis or balantitis producing enlarged, tender inguinal lymph nodes.
You might require one course of antibiotic medicine for 5-7 days.
Keep local hygiene proper.
Make a habit of cleaning smegma by averting foreskin while taking shower.
Ok and take care.
