What Could It Be If Had A Bump Under The Penis Which Is Noticeable Only During Erection?

Hello, I had a small bb sized bump appear under the skin of my penis a few weeks ago. It s on the left side of the shaft. It is primarily only noticeable when my penis is erect. There is absolutely no pain and everything finctions normally. Is this thrombosis? And if so, how long will it take to clear up?

Hi, it is unlikely to be thrombosis. Its quite rare in that area. What is your age and have you had any sexual encounters before the appearance of the bump? You can either see a Doctor to see what it is and whether it requires treatment or you can click a photo and send to us on the ' Ask a Specialist' section or directly on my profile page. Also, please answer the questions above when you post the query. We can then decipher whether you would require any treatment or not.
Take care,
Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
