A member asked:
The top 1cm of my penis shaft just below the glans, is much softer and smaller in circumference than the rest of the shaft. why is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: Paul, most commonly penile shaft circumference is largest around mid-shaft. As the corporal bodies (erectile bodies) taper near the end of the penis before the glans penis, the circumference is smaller. This is likely normal. If you are concerned, please see a urologist.
