Hello
Thanks for query.
The penis at he base contains three parts two cylinders of erectile tissue called Corpora Cavernosa and third is urethra where as at the head both the corpora cavernosa get expanded to form a glans penis .Hence it is natural and normal to have broader penis at the open end (Glans Penis).

There is nothing to be worried and thin about it .

There are no oils or medication that can broaden the base and do not attempt to do it by any means .

Hello
This really isn't anything abnormal and there is no way to widen the base of your penis. If you're still concerned, have a urologist take a look
