Swollen veins on penis for about 2 months
I have a swollen veins on my penis (especially the dorsal vein) for about 2 months. Happily, I feel no pain, but it scares me a lot. I think that its a PMD (Penile Mondor Disease).
What should I do with it? Any ways to narrow veins? Have you seen anything same before?

Have you seen a doctor? That's the first think you should do if you are this scared, right?
Don't attempt to narrow your own veins. That's definitely not something you should ever try on your own. Let a doctor do treatment, not yourself, especially on your penis, veins, arteries, etc.
We can't tell you what you have here, but you really should go to the doctor. It's been happening for 2 months. It's not going away. Go get it checked out.

I think I have the same as this guy https://www.medhelp.org/posts/Mens-Health/penile-dorsal-vein-problem/show/1895759
Okay, well, if you read through that entire thread, it seems what he had was pretty normal and just irritation, and only lasted a couple of days.
Noticing the veins doesn't mean something is wrong. It may just be normal. But why not get it checked out and find that out?

Hope that it's okay. I'm just a little worried about going to the doctor as a teen. I've been seeing these veins on my penis for about two months now and think that I should stop onanism.
How old are you?
Masturbation, or onanism, is a normal activity, and isn't harmful unless you are doing it to the point of irritation. I understand that some cultures and religions see it as harmful, but medically, there's nothing harmful about it.
There's nothing wrong with seeing the doctor as a teen. I get that it might be weird talking to your parents about this, but if you think they'd be understanding, can you tell them you're worried? Are you close with your father? He has a penis, so he might be more understanding than you think.

Thanks for your help. I'm 17 years old. Honestly I'm not very close with my father, so it would be a little weird to ask him about it.
Oh, and I forgot to mention that veins are still pretty swollen and visible even when flaccid. Is it okay?
We are who we are. Sometimes we have veins that stick out. Sometimes we don't. Frankly, the penis is a pretty weird looking thing anyway. Since it doesn't hurt, it's probably nothing. If you're 17, you're just not all that young anymore, you're one year away from having a lot of adult opportunities and experiences, so don't see why you think seeing a doc would be worrisome just because you're a teen. Nobody likes to see doctors, not matter the age, because it means we think something is wrong. But it's better than worrying about it forever and ever. Masturbating doesn't cause this. If you do it too hard or rough, you can cause irritation, just as you can if you do rough things with a partner. It's a very sensitive part of the body. The only way you'll ever know for sure is to see a doc and get a diagnosis. Otherwise, you're just guessing and I'm just guessing but I don't think anything is wrong at all. Peace.
Thanks you very much again. Finally, I think that shouldn't worry about it. And should just stop doing so often it to avoid irritation (that's the reason of swelling I think).
