Brief Answer:
Constipation or prostate.
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for asking
I read your question and i understand your concern. Hard tube like feeling behind scrotum in perineal area like pressure feeling is likely a bowel related discomfort like constipation or hard stools or enlarged prostate . These two commonest causes should be evaluated first. Also a local scrotal examination needs to be done to rule out any local pathology which is unlikely.
A prostate check and remedy of constipation if any will surely help the issue. talk to a doctor, let them run some labs, have a prostate exam and run some labs if necessary to rule out other possibilities.
I hope it helps. Take good care of yourself and don't forget to close the discussion please.
