Bleeding started about 10 or 12 hours ago, now getting heavy.
Brief Answer:
Prostrate enlargement or direct injury or bladder issues
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
This kind of painless bleeding from penis should be dealt quickly.
This can be from the rupture of blood capillaries in the highly vascular prostate gland which is enlarging in size.
It could be due to a trivial injury to the organ. Most important and serious problem can be tumor in the bladder.
I suggest to see the doctor (Urologist) immediately with appointment. He can do a cystoscopy to find out the reason.
