I have a swollen vein on the top of my penis below the head,
approx 3/4" long and 1/4" wide. It looks most unnatural when flaccid although it doesn't cause any pain or any other problems. It has remained pretty much as is for the past 6 months or more. I have also acquired some prominent red surface veins near the base of the penis very close to the surface that were not there before, again most noticeable when flaccid.
I have several questions. Assuming this is a thrombosed vein as I have read about, would it then be a blood clot? I have tried asprin/ibuprofen to help thin the blood, and abstinence but have had little success. I am not sure how much asprin or how long someone typically should do this with no results before giving up.
Is there any kind of shelf ointment that can help to break up such a clot or to relieve thrombosis (I am thinking of hemorroid cream or something of this nature, although I have read about herapin ointment I don't know what product would have that or if there is anything over the counter.) I have tried Vitamin K but don't know how long or if that would help.
Also, I have thought about exercising with Nitrus Oxide supplements (NO2) which claim to be vasodilators- I was wondering if this would make the situation worse,
or would help, perhaps by increasing blood flow/circulation.
And if this is a coagulation (blood clot), is there a danger this could break loose/travel to my heart or other region, perhaps if the veins were dilated with such supplements? Thanks.
