    William, I have grabbed some information off the net from a reliable medical source that details what these normally are:

    .

    " Lymphocele can form on the penis and occurs in sexually active males. Lymphocele of the penis is generally harmless and does not require any treatment. The condition develops due to vigorous masturbation or prolonged, intense sex sessions and is characterised by the presence of what looks like a horizontal or vertical swollen cord. It results in the temporary blockage of lymph channels in the penis. "

      Fortunately, I have never had one of these myself - however, I would suggest these take their own time to fade away of, so there is no one answer to when what you have will fade away.

      Here is some further information from a different reliable medical source:

      .

      " Lymphoceles happen when lumps or swelling appear on your penis after you have sex or masturbate. They result from blockage in your lymph channels, which carry clear lymph fluid throughout your body to help your immune system.

      .

      These lumps usually go away shortly after they appear and don’t need to be treated. "

      .

      I would further add that while penile Lymphocele are quite common they would normally be caused by an area of the body receiving a trauma of some kind - so in terms of the penis this would equate to too much pressure being applied to it. So, if you know how this may have happened for you the thing to do would be not to apply any further pressure to your penis.

      The medical data state that Lymphocele most commonly occur following surgery to any part of the body, but I don't suppose your were even partly circumcised recently?

      Okay, no explanation from that then.

      (In case you are wondering the photos you posted would have been removed because of your age - this is to meet with Internationally agreed Laws on the use of the Internet!)

      In terms of what you do now, the safe thing is to get what you have checked by a Doctor as it would seem to me if you have had this since February it should have cleared by now.

      So you need to speak to a parent or another member of the family that you can trust so that the arrangement can be made for you to get checked out by a Doctor .....
