TOPIC: Swelling and mild pain for almost 2 months

Hello guys. I stard to feel a little bit concerned as I now have discomfort / mild pain in my penis for several weeks. I ve had 6 rounds of PMMA, the last one 5 years ago. I still get swelling ofter sex but it subsides aftes one or two days.

Now I started having a mild swelling 8 weeks ago which lasts till today and I have mild discomfort / pain on the top side of my penis up to the area where the ligs are attached to the bone, especially if I wear underwear. I ve tried ibuprofene for days but it does not seem to work.

Any tips?

Thanks in advance

Was there any perceptible movement of the product or anything different leading up to this pain?

Describe the pain.

No not really, no mechanical impact. Kinda difficult to explain the pain...its like a part of the body hurting after a concussion. It's not that painful but enough to permanentely remind me that something is going on over there. I have the same discomfort usually after sex, together with swelling, but it alway goes away. Now this time it appeared sontaneously. It is not swollen very much though and no redness...

And the PMMA/collagen feels harder, less smooth

It could be inflammation of the dorsal nerve causing discomfort. If the product was harder, it would push down more and cause more friction/damage to the nerve.

I have that theory along with MrW who had something similar, he was the one to suggest it and I think he could be right.

I think I have the same dull, deep ache after sex too, it\'s not pain but it does throb away enough to be noticeable and uncomfortable.

In that case anti-inflammatory agents such as Ibuprofene should help though... Did a blood check yesterday, everything fine CRP Levels normal PSA LDH...all fine. I had a very mild Prostate inflammation some time ago due to excessive biking that went away on its own. Maybe there is a relation to this? Also I ve read about inflammation due to biofilms...in that case antibiotics would help ( doxicycline for the pelvic area ).

I am going to see an Urologist but I am not sure if he will be interested in problems due to penile implants...

I had an appointment this morning with an Urologist. He shook his head when I told him about the penile implant. He told me he had seen fat implants and every filler will change shape and form and look odd over time. I did not try to explain him what PMMA is...

Had an ultrasound check, everything fine, veins, prostate, kidney, bladder. In his opinion my penis is not swollen ( it feels thicker and heavier for mee though, could be dilatiation due to the heat?)

He also thinks that an irritated or an inflamed dorsal nerve will not result in penile swelling.

At least I know I do not have a serious condition. I am wondering what causes this sensation though (it's also more present on the right side)

Will update.

Well, at least he didn\'t think you were in dire straights, that\'s something eh?

I also have pain more on right side. Hmm.

It\'s all unknown isn\'t it?

Could be worse.

I had an std and my penis was irritated and swelled somewhat also. You should check for that. Easy to think any issue with the penis is related to PMMA once you have had it.

Hi I\'m thinking about getting the filler, But I would only need it once what is you guys take on that. Is there anyone on these boards who are happy years after or is everyone having problems.
