There: is not much "space" in the pelvic/perineal space and any INFLAMMATION tends to swell causing pain in adjacent structures...including the seminal vesicles/urethra and nerves going to the penis. In females this is a well established condition termed "Pelvic Congestion:" Hope this helps BTW SITZ BATHS (HOT TUB) are often VERY EFFECTIVE in relieving this clinical situation! Dr Z
