A member asked:
Pain at base of penis? causes besides inguinal hernia? also no infection down there.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Requires examination: the penis attaches to the pubic symphis by a suspensory ligament which you may have injured or strained, assuming no fracture to the base during sexual relations. I suggest a urology evaluation.
