Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

There are lots of veins visible on my penis, even in a flaccid state from the past two months. I have no pain and no erection problem, but these veins create stress for me. How to get rid of these veins?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Thanks very much for consulting us.

Those prominent veins are normal. It varies in look, but nothing should be done if it does not cause pain. Conditions like vasculitis and venous thrombosis, which cause pain and hard veins (uncompressible veins), can be treated with anti-inflammatory medications or steroids. In your case no need for treatment. If you have any more queries, please let us know.

Kind regards.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thanks for the consult.

I have not experienced any pain, and there are no erection problems, but these veins have been permanent for the past two months in a flaccid state also. I do not like these bulging veins. I want to know how these veins may disappear and how much time it takes to disappear.

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your question. There is no medicine to treat those veins, which might dilate or reduce, and that is normal and does not require treatment.

Kind regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
