He was alright two months back when he started feeling something firm under the skin of penis just proximal to the glans. At erection this area becomes painful even to touch and glans deviates toward the left. He did not recall any kind of penile trauma or UTI in recent past. There is no history of smoking. He was a young man in good health. General physical examination was normal. A plaque of 2x1 cm was present on the left side in the shaft of penis just proximal to the glans. This plaque was tender and firm in consistency.
