Hello, I am 15 years old and i currently have a vein running over the top of my helmet on my penis, which consequently runs over the hole where my urine comes out from. Is this common and is this dangerous? Thanks.

Hi Luke,

Is this on the glans itself or your foreskin?

It runs up the foreskin and then goes over the glans itself.

Veins are often very pronounced on your penis and especially on the foreskin. The tissues are very thin, compared to elsewhere on your body, so they look bigger.

It is unlikely to be dangerous. Even worst case and it got cut or tore - UNLIKELY - veins aren't really under pressure so it would just "ooze" blood.

You'll need to have your doctor examine your penis for a more specific answer.

Hope it helps.
