A member asked:
I have a tiny length of what appears to be a hardened vein just below the bell end of my penis. it doesn't hurt nor discolored. what could this be?

Clotted vein: You may have a superficial clot in your penile veins. Try a week of Ibuprofen and frequent warm compresses or baths. If it's still there in a week, it may be a plaque that does require urologic attention.
