Is This Normal?

---

I noticed a small lump like thing under the skin of my penis on top on the left side in the middle of where the head meets the rest of the penis, also one on the right side too but its kinda long. When i rub it it does not hurt..it kinda feels like a bone or something. All the help i can get on this would be greatly appreciated d^.^b

bump...help pls ;\

Is it a lump? because there is a bone there, if not just check the anatomy thread.

There's no bone in a human penis, though some animals have a penis-bone. I don't know what the lumps you're feeling are. Cartilage?

There is cartilage in the penis? if so can you list where please..thanks alot.

By the way..it is one lump and it kind of does feel like cartilage beneath the head sort of.

I have like a 'ring' of cartilidge when i pull my foreskin back, it sticks out every so slightly.. does that sound like yours?

It does feel like a 'ring' of cartilage around the head but can only feel parts of it.

this is.. WhatThe (guy who posted this)and I just found out that day when i pulled back my foreskin that it was (IM PRETTY SURE) build up of smega...lots and lots of it im guessing because i could feel the bumps and part of the ring (it formed like 1/4th of a ring on the glands under the foreskin and a little buildup on top)it was what i "thought" was bone or cartilage or something and it can be felt from the outside of the penis(im pretty sure it was smegma.. it was yellowish and it smelt REALLY REALLY bad. No one has ever taught me the importance of cleaning UNDER the foresking, and from that day on I clean down there EVERY DAY.I also have a question... I had testicular/groin pains earlier that week.. could that Old Ass Smegma possibly have given me an infection or something that caused my ballz to hurt? and it rarely hurts now. thx

i don't have an answer for you, but geez...i can't believe how many posts i read where you guys are never informed about smegma and how to clean yourself. that is so sad!

Well I clean myself thoroughly everyday and I don't think I've ever had that problem. This is the first time I've been informed of "smegma", however. Still, I don't think I've ever had those problems. I am circumcised, so would that still mean that buildup is possible?

It's not likely that you'd get an internal infection from smegma, lostZz.jluvl, smegma isn't a problem if you're circumcised.
