Penis enlargment repurcussion

by kili, Mar 01, 2004 12:00AM
About ten days ago I suspended use of one of the penis enlargment programs because of slight soreness and discoloration at underside of penis head and a few spots along the shaft, which I am assuming are broken blood vessels from the "jelquing" exercises.

Since that time alot of the discolored spots on the shaft have disappeared but there is still some soreness at the underside of the head and also a dark streak about two inches long on the underside of shaft that seems to resemble a vein right at the surface of the skin. This streak seems to stop at and intersect with a similar streak that completely encircles the shaft right at the point between the shaft and the wrinkly skin area that is about 3/4 inchwide and ends at the ridge of the head. The circular streak is not as pronounced as the one on the underside of the shaft and I cant be sure that it wasnt always there and I just didnt ever look close enough to see it till now. Posibly a circumcision scar? The other thing that I have noticed is there is some connection between the sore spot at the underside of the head, and the rectum because when drying the rectal area after a shower if I put enough pressure there the soreness at the penis head underside intensifies. This spot under the head of the penis is the only place of any soreness and it is more of a mild discomfort than really very sore.

I am not having any problems getting an erection and intercourse with my wife does not cause any discomfort.

Will intercourse slow the healing process and can you give me an idea how long healing might take and are there any creams or anything that I could apply to speed the healing process?

                  Thank You in advance for any reply



P.S is there really any safe way to enlarge the penis?

One consideration would be Mondor's disease - or thrombosis of the penile veins.  Typically, they would resolve with conservative therapy such as non-steroidal medications within 4-6 weeks.  If the vein does not go away, a surgical procedure can be considered to remove the vein.



I would consider being evaluated by a urologist to evaluate this.



There are a variety of surgical procedures that can be done to enlarge the penis.  For more information on these procedures, you can read it here:
