My penis is swollen, what's going on?

Many men find a lump on their penis in their daily life, so they go to the andrology hospital to consult a doctor and ask themselves what disease they have. In fact, there are many reasons for the growth of a lump on the penis, and the causes of different patients are naturally different. If you want to know the specific cause, please continue reading. Let's predict it in advance, and hope that the following content will be helpful to everyone.

It is very likely a rash on the glans penis. It is more common in people with long foreskins, and is caused by the stimulation of urine scale in the foreskin. If the foreskin is not long, a penile tumor rash may also occur when there is a bacterial infection; some people may have allergic reactions or take allergic drugs due to poor hygiene habits, which may cause allergic malaria on the glans penis. It is recommended to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time to facilitate timely symptomatic treatment.

What is the cause of the lumps on the penis?

1. It hinders the development of the penis and affects the harmony of sexual life. Phimosis will affect the growth and development of the penis. During adolescence, the glans penis is tightly covered by the foreskin and cannot receive the proper stimulation from the outside world. The development of the glans penis is greatly restricted, resulting in a significantly smaller circumference of the glans penis after the sexual organ matures, affecting sexual pleasure. Adults will have normal sexual life affected by excessive foreskin or phimosis.

2. Inflammation of the penis. There are abundant sebaceous glands in the foreskin, which can secrete a large amount of sebum. When the foreskin is too long or the foreskin is too long, the secretions of the sebaceous glands in the foreskin cannot be discharged, and the sebum and the sediment in the urine are combined into the cheese-like and smelly "smegma". Smegma is suitable for bacterial growth, so it can cause inflammation of the glans penis and foreskin. The bacteria can also cause urinary tract infection through the urethra. Inflammation occurring at the urethral opening can cause the urethral opening to narrow after healing, resulting in difficulty in urination.

3. Damage to kidney function: Penis inflammation can cause stenosis of the urethra or anterior urethra, resulting in urination difficulties. Long-term urination difficulties will damage kidney function.

4. There is a risk of cancer. Prepuce and phimosis may induce penile cancer. Modern scientific research shows that smegma is a carcinogen. According to surveys, 85%-95% of penile cancer patients have phimosis or prepuce. Phimosis and prepuce are not only harmful to one's own health, but also bring smegma into the vagina when having sex with his wife, irritating the uterus and inducing cervical cancer.

5. Premature ejaculation during sexual intercourse is most commonly caused by the foreskin covering the glans penis, but exposing it during erection. Follow-up investigations by experts have found that because the glans penis mucosa is usually hidden under the foreskin, it is rarely rubbed and stimulated, making the nerves of the glans penis mucosa overly sensitive. During sexual intercourse, the glans penis is exposed after erection, and when the glans penis and the vagina are rubbed and stimulated, premature ejaculation will occur due to the overly delicate and sensitive nerves of the glans penis mucosa, causing premature ejaculation.

People with a bulge on their penis can refer to the above to find the cause of their illness, and then treat it accordingly. This way the treatment effect is also relatively good. However, male friends must pay attention to personal hygiene in daily life and have a clean sex life. If they persist in this way, there will generally be no bulge on the penis. This is of course the best.
