Urologist 's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query.
You have noticed dilated vein on the dorsal aspect of your shaft of the penis.
This is a dilated tortuous tributary of Superficial Dorsal Vein of Penis ,

his is seen in 20-30% of men and has no significance at all.

It can not be a cause for your problem of ED.

For problem of ED you need to consult qualified Urologist for evaluation to find out the cause of your ED and further treatment.
