Question
Hi, i am a 16 year old male who has only had oral sex. But now i have a hard vein-like bump just under the head of my penis. this seems to get bigger and harder when i have an erection. this has only happened for about 3 days. could this be dangerous and how can i make this go? away please help.
Answer
It is very hard to diagnose over the internet. We can't obtain a history or examine the area or take your temperature and other vital signs. It is now almost 3 weeks after you have posted your question and the hard lump will have most likely resolved. If not or if it has grown in size you need to see a physician for evaluation and care.
