Need to consult a General Surgeon or urologist

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Based on the fact that you have posted your husband seems to have developed an abscess over the shaft of the penis.

You need to consult qualified Urologist or general surgeon for clinical examination. He may need to undergo surgery as incision and drainage of the abscess.

Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks
