Posted on Tue, 28 Jul 2015
Question: What would be the cause of my penis and scrotum being so swollen that I can hardly walk? I have not had sex so I know it is not a sexually transmitted disease. It is huge. I am 30 years old.


I am also blood red and miserable!

Brief Answer:
if developed in short period, see your doctor urgently.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Brantley and welcome to HCM.
I can understand your concern. Has the swelling appeared within few days or has it occurred over few months or years.
If it has developed over a few days, you should see your doctor at once. It's usually due to some allergy or inflammation.That will be known after your blood tests reports.
Hope your doubt is cleared. Wish you well.
