Sounds puzzling. Do you mean it is on the surface of, and obviously attached to the testicle inside your scrotum, or is it separate to the testicle, or is it just on the scrotum (on the skin)?

If it was somehow attached to the shaft of the penis, that would not be so surprising, but if it is quite separate and only appears with an erection - quite unusual, I think!

But it shows you have got the message and are actually doing something to fix it, which is the important part.

As you do if you look at your throat, which is also inside a moist cavity. OK, here we go again with the pictures!

Can you see red spots here?

(Clue: This is a healthy penis)
