I think you're talking about the aquiles tendon. A lot of things can happen to it, like if you run or walk to fast it can stretch it out. All of your tendons in your body can be stretched too much. It takes time but it should feel better. If it doesn't i recommend going to a doctor. Stop doing the activity that caused the injury for between a week and a few months, depending upon the degree of degeneration. Stretch the calf muscles for 20 or more minutes per day. Apply ice to reduce the degeneration. Ice should not be applied directly to the skin, use an ice pack instead. Apply the ice pack to the Achilles tendons after exercise. Also, try to stay away from motrin or advil or any pain killers. The pain killing drugs will mask the problem, which is likely to cause the degeneration to get worse. hope it works out!!

You could also be allergic to the perfume or different materials of the cleaning soap. You would possibly gotten a few of into your urethra, or at the glans (head) if uncircumcised. You ought to do extra than simply splash a few water on it. Taking a bathtub or bathe must support extra. The affliction must subside after a whilst. Don't use cleaning soap, shampoo, and so forth., for lube to avert a repeat.

It's possibly a bone spur. They are very treatable, but won't go away on it's own.
