Lump in perineum

I m a 30 year old active male in good health except for the condition described below.
For the last six to eight months I have been seeing doctors about pain in my perineum after ejaculation. The pain always started after ejaculation and would persist for 1-8 hours after ejaculation. Also I noticed a reduction in ejaculation pressure. All the doctors I have seen so far treated me for chronic prostatitis with anti-inflammatory and anti-biotics. I have however seen no improvement in my condition.

One important piece of information that I had not shared with any of the doctors was that I have a solid golf ball sized (not very mushy, feels hard) lump that appears in my perineum each time i have an erection and this lasts all the way till I I achieve ejaculation. After ejaculation the lump kinda disappears and perineum becomes soft again. I have had this for a long time, but the size may have increased recently. I know this is going to sound very naive, but I had no idea that this was not a normal phenomenon as I first noticed it at least 5 years ago. This was the reason I never mentioned it to any of my doctors. It was only recently my girlfriend said something about it and said she had never seen it on another man before. This leads me to think I may have some sort of hernia that could be causing the pain after ejaculation.

I would really appreciate some feedback on my question.

Thanks in advance.

I have this exact same thing going on, except not as much pain in the perineum or reduced ejaculation that I noticed. The second paragraph of what you wrote hits it on the head so to speak for what I am experiencing. I cannot find any other people describing this exact same experience besides you. And there was no answers posted on your question, so here I am asking you, what did you find out?! Please help if you or anyone can! Thanks very much.
