    Lump/Swollen side of penis
    Hey all,

    Today I returned home and noticed the left side of my penis (on the shaft near almost near the head) was swollen, and there was a lump that kind of feels like a trail of something maybe (almost like a hard string that goes halfway around the penis)? Anyway, I've been researching for the past couple hours and haven't found any info that fits perfectly into what it is.. I'm a virgin, but I have received oral sex, although the girl does not have stds.. I read something about semen being absorbed then rejected, or it being a clot of a vein or something, or even ring worm.. I'm 17 years of age, athletic and healthy

    Can anyone help me pleaseeeeee?

    If it were just the bump, I'd say maybe just a zit... get to the doctor if it does not go away or come to a head within a week, but the "hard string/trail" you describe concerns me.

    Don't let embarrassment get in the way; share your concern with your parents and have them take you to the doctor.

    As I always say and as Rickj above has already said - get to the Doctor. The Doc always knows best, can get it treated if necessary and above all put your mind at rest.

    Hi,
    At 17, I know it might be embarrassing or you might be a little "afraid" to go to a doctor, or have your parents take you.
    I do agree with you other answers about Please go to a doctor.
    I don't know what the "hard string" is either, never heard of it. A Doctor can help you. I do wish you the best, and good luck.
    PS; Anytime you have any type of sex, without protection, you open yourself, and your partner up to Sexual Diseases. (Unless, of course, you are married and know each very well).

    All right thanks for the advice guys.. by the way could it be from just getting hit hard? I had an extremely physical soccer game yesterday and it was hit multiple times.. I think its really weird this would just come up so suddenly, could it be because of that? Its still swollen, but it looks better (could be from me just not being so surprised as well), and there's no pain at all
