What Is The Reason For Decrease In Diameter At The Penis Head And Uretha Tube Harder Having A History Of Duvericulitis And Prostatis?

over the last several weeks i have noticed that the end of shaft towards the penis head has lost some diameter and the uretha tube seems to be harder near the end more then the rest. I have diverticulitis and had prostatitis in the past. There is very little discomfort. I have also noticed a couple of freckle like spots show up also. Tell me some good news please.

Hi,

I can understand your concern for decrease in diameter at the penis head and appearance of hardness over urethral tube.

After reading your query it appears that you due to divericulitis you have got mild inflammation of the tip of urethra. After healing of the same there can be soreness as well hard feeling at the tip. You do not try to touch the area unnecessarily as can get infected.

Prostatitis itself can not affect affect penile architecture and its related blood supply. IT might be due to anxiety that you might be feeling small size of penile head.

I suggest you to meet a urologist to take best advise for your problem. Do not apply any mixed ointment as can harm the penile skin.

Take care.
