How Can A Swelling At The Base Of The Penis Be Treated?

I am relativley overweight and have recently become sexualy active. That being said, i have noticed a swealing around the base of my penis, specificaly around the base of the scrotum and a quarter of the way up the scrotum. The tissiu is hard and does not cause pain, my concern stems from the fact that this swelling comes and goes be it after intercourse or just randomly. In short, i have intermitent sweling of my pubis pad, and it does not hurt. But i do not know what it is.

Hi,

Consult a urologist and get evaluated. It can be a minor contusion or superficial infection. As of now you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen for pain relief.
