Patient's question:
Recently, I've felt something hard on my penis. I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said it's a penile nodule. I want to consult an expert: can penile nodules be treated? I've never had this disease before. It's just that recently during sexual activity, I've felt some pain when my penis is erect.Doctor's answer:
The nodule in the penis can be cured, but it requires surgical removal. If surgical removal is not performed, it may lead to future sexual dysfunction. About two weeks after the surgery, the stitches can be removed, and normal sexual activity can be resumed. However, during the healing period, sexual activity should be strictly prohibited. It is important to change the dressing on the wound promptly, maintain cleanliness and hygiene in the perineum, and avoid consuming excessively spicy foods, which could affect wound healing.
