Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this lump and all the inconveniences this has caused you. I have reviewed this information fully. The acute onset of this lump makes it less concerning of real threats such as cancers. Though we are pretty sure it is benign, I will like to obtain images of this lump and review. Also, let me know if it hurts or not when you touch.

I hope to hear from you at your earliest convenience and will respond promptly to help you deal with this troubling thought that you have expressed.

Brief Answer:
Fo enow, monitor only!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I will say monitor only for now. The penis contains muscles and I hope this is not what you have felt for the first time and getting to concerned. We will need more time to make sure whatever you are concerned about is real and gather more information to address it fully. Follow up with me in 3-5days and let me know how well you are doing about this.

I wish you well.
