Has anyone have any experience with this? This came up pretty suddenly; below the head I've had a lump pop up one one side.It seems puffy until I pull the skin tight.Then it's a hard lump, with a ring like a blood vessel (softer, and kind of rolls.

I haven't been able to find this on any web searches.My sexuality is kind of impaired anyway.I'm 56, slim but higher BP,using Testosterone gel daily.My libido has decreased, kind of cycles. About 10 years ago my penis got broken, but problems were just occasional.Lately I get half- hard, and lose that before long.

Is this at all familiar? I haven't seen my doctor yet; I'll have to scrape to do it, so if anyone can share I would Really Really appreciate it.

A hernia is when your intestines protrude through a weakness in the abdomen out to another area of thebody. I think the penis can rupture or develop plaque build up called Peyronie's disease .

Thank you Tubeular for the reply.I'm pretty sure now that, as described on this site, it was a thrombosis of a penile blood or lymphatic vessel.This week approx. 7 weeks after it came up, the ring is disappearing almost as quickly as it appeared.This also seems to fit the pattern of a thrombosis.Thanks everyone who took an interest, and this site for supplying an answer.
