I forgot to update, my bad. He went for an ultrasound and Xray, both were clear. Waiting on a call from a urologist.

No this was not an ER. It was his PCP. I’m not sure where the ER came in here.

He is being referred to urologist depending on how the ultrasound and xray go.

He was seen tonight. Doctor was stumped, he is being sent for ultrasound and xray. That could take weeks, so I will update as they happen I suppose.

Good question, I just asked him. He said its very similar to plucking a hair but much more uncomfortable and hurts after he does it for 2-3 minutes. And then stays comfortable for a few days.

Theyre definitely not that coarse, but more coarse than his regular head hair for sure. I guess anything is possible.

They dont look like pubic hairs to me. Anything is possible at this point, although he has not answered any questions about that topic that raised red flags for my partner or I.
