After a long ride, the area above my penis gets puffy (seriously).

I've ridden several double centuries and countless century rides.

I'm looking to do a few brevets this year, but I'm having several issues with my fit and comfort after returning to cycling after taking off for two years (during that two years I rode only once every 7-12 days).

One issue that I've never noticed until the last few months is that after I finish a 3+ hr ride that the area above my penis becomes puffy. I'm serious about this.

It doesn't hurt and it goes away within 60 minutes of getting off the bike, but it tells me that something might be wrong with my fit or my saddle (had my routine doctor checkup 3 months ago and there is nothing wrong with ME).

Anyone with a similar experience? What do I need to do to fix this? Move my saddle? Change my saddle?

I'm going to post a vid in the fit section soon, so I'll link to that vid…

I realize that this post could have fit into numerous different forums, but the issue doesn't arise until I've been in the saddle for at least 2 hrs.

Thank you!
