Hard Lump On The Penis. Cancer Chances? How To Get Rid Of It?
I have a hard lump on the left side of the shaft of my penis about halfway from the base on the left side towards the urethra . It showed out of nowhere and is under the skin. No color to it, no pain and its been there for about a week and a half. I ve heard everything from lymphocele to cancer . It is very hard and if I don t fool with it it slightly decreases in size. What is it and how do I get rid of it? It s extremely bothersome to me and my wife. Please help

Dear Sir,
Sorry to hear about your problem. It is best that you have this lump evaluated by a surgeon. If the surgeon thinks it is suspicious, he might order an imaging test for it as well. Such a lesion should not be ignored as it can cause problems in the future.
