Patient's question:
A lump has appeared under the foreskin of the penis, which reappears when erect and disappears when soft. It feels like a blood vessel and can move quickly. In the past few days, even when soft, it can be felt and moves quickly, similar to when erect, but it's not as hard as when erect. What could be the issue, and what detailed examinations are needed?Doctor's answer:
This is common in local cysts or inflammatory infections. Maintain local cleanliness and hygiene, and avoid squeezing. It is recommended to seek medical attention for further examination and diagnosis. Once the condition is confirmed, symptomatic treatment should be administered. Avoid spicy foods. Pay close attention and monitor the situation. For patients with phimosis, timely treatment can reduce the risk of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should take oral medication promptly and pay attention to self-care in daily life, avoiding spicy foods.
