"knot"-like lump

Does anyone else have this?

I seem to have something that seems like sort of like a knot inside my dick.
In the exact center left to right and about an inch or a bit more from the base there’s this little lump. I first noticed it jelqing with jelqing sticks.
The motion sort of stopped and then went over the bump with each stroke. Since I’ve made my own PJ with foam it’s less noticeable, but I felt it in the motion last night. Does anyone else have this. My dick has to be at least 60% erect to feel it, but still soft enough to feel inside. I’m a little worried if this is
something that isn’t supposed to be there.

PS it’s about the size of a pea.

Hi there PEanist ..

No I can’t say I have anything like that. Might be worth letting a doc see it if it really worries you. Is it new?

Take care,

Ant

Well, I’m not no Doctor but you should go see one. Peyronie’s decease starts out usually with a knot or bump and progresses to a curvature. Please do yourself a favor and see a Doc!

Ant,

I don’t think it’s new. I noticed it pretty much as soon as I started using the jelq sticks, I don’t think any excercise made me aware of it before. I took a break for other reasons for at least a few weeks, maybe more I sort of lost track and it was still there.

Modemmer, I looked up Peyronies on a urology page and they say it is plaque in the tunica usually on one side or the other. This is some thing right inside.

Thanks for the responses. Any other ideas?

Hey PEanist,

Is it visible or just something that you can feel deep within your shaft? Have you checked out the Injury Forum to see if anyone has posted a similar condition?

It’s just deep inside in the excact center left to right and top to bottom. In fact I did a little feeling around and with an 80% erection I can’t even find it, there’s too much engorgement covering it.

It doesn’t hurt either, I’ve just been feeling and squeezing it. The only time it hurt was at the end of a long jelq stick work out probably near the end of the week and then just with each stroke, no lingering pain. Then I took a break and it’s never gone away. Maybe I’ve always had it. I notice it a little when I use the PJ but it’s just a ‘hiccup’ in the stroke when I push hard or I can feel it with my fingers when I push into it. I can do the PJ without the hiccup if I’m engorged enough.

I have had no erection problems, colour/temperature changes, weird feelings or anything. In fact since PJ’ing and when I used sticks my erections are better and more spontaneous.

Here’s the strange thing. It’s about an inch from the base when I feel it with my fingers in a 70% erection. I’ve gained 1.25 inches. I wonder if it’s not something that’s moving out from inside with gains or something like that.

Hey PEanist,

It may have been there all along and the jelq sticks have just drawn your attention to it. I’m not sure what to say, but I would avoid the area with the jelq sticks for sure. Consider working the sides of your shaft for awhile and giving the top and bottom a good extended rest. Even using the sticks with a firmer erection may eventually aggravate the area.

Keep us posted on this. Maybe someone else will reply that has had a like condition.

Here’s another idea. Ditch the jelq sticks and use your hand. Take a few days off to see if it goes away, then do manual jelqing. If the sticks created the problem, why would you continue to use them?

I haven’t been using the sticks for over a month. I took a break and then went back, but it’s been there the whole time if I feel around for it. I’ve been using a homemade powerjelqer with which I can feel it some of the time. Like I said there’s no pain but sometimes I notice it through the stroke. If I go slowly and not too hard I can’t feel it as I do it. I think the PJ is better because the rollers with the foam have a much larger circumference and so the side of them doesn’t dig in as much and get stuck near the lump, but just rides over.

i appreciate what you are saying- but shouldn’t you be considering that there may be pain soon? I don’t think that lump should be there, and rolling sticks (padded or not) over it can’t be good for it. It’s your dick and you need to do what you feel is best, but if it was my dick I would be trying to do everything I could not to irritate the lump :)

PEanist;

Could be lots of things. A friend of mine has had a pea sized knot for 20 years. But to make sure you don’t have a cyst or something that could later become infected, have it checked out.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I think I’ll wait and see for a little while.

Thanks,

When I was younger I had a lump similar to what you are describing. It was kind of like a knot.I would say it was more near the surface on the top side of the shaft. Didn’t cause any discomfort that I remember. I didn’t pay much attention to it and it’s gone away all on it’s own. I wasn’t doing any PE at the time or before I noticed this.

Hope this helps!
