Vibration sensation in penis

For a couple of weeks, I have a vibrating sensation in the penis area.  I first thought my cell phone may have started it since I have had it attached to my belt, on the vibrate status.  I stopped doing this and still feel it.  It is either a vibration or a sensation of filling up with liquid.  No other symptoms are there.  No pain in urination, no pain in sex, have been married for many years with one partner, and no urge to go to the bathroom.  It happens randomly, and lasts for 3-6 seconds then goes away.  It is irritating but not painful.

Any thoughts on this issue would be helpful.

well, you have someone who agrees with you here. maybe it is a coincidence, the same thing has happened to me. I am a fitness trainer and much concerned about my health. i started taking vitamins that i hadnt takin in a long time because i had this about eight years ago. now it started up again since i have started taking the vitamins. maybe we got something here,as we may all know, vitamins are always what they crack up to be. got to look around for the good stuff.

This vibration thing just started happening today 05 19 12.  In my case it feels more deep in the groin like at the base of the penis or the prostate area.  I have Hypertension, a history of kidney stones AND some lower back discomfort depending on shoes and how much time standing / sitting.  I'm in my early forties and have been trying to stand more recently to avoid too much time sedentary at the computer.  I do take a generic multivitamin everyday with an occasional switch on the brand if I forgot to take it at home.   Fearing a kidney problem with no insurance, working 40 hours per week in the greatest country in the world, I started drinking water.  After 3 brisk twenty minute walks the vibration increased from 2 seconds with a 5-7 second pause to a 2 second vibration to a two second pause.  Very grateful to find this forum.  The vibrating stopped shorty after the third walk for about one hour.  What I have in common with some others here is high blood pressure, history of kidney stones and possible recent back strain after yard work the previous day.  The vibration is returning slightly, depending on my position.

This is a horrible cliffhanger....where's the post MD visit follow-up? I am nurse whose husband works lifting heavy parcel items. Back pain and muscle strain seem like a common thread in all of your posts and a seemingly likely cause for his symptoms as well. I am very thankful for all the descriptive posts thus far. It helps me to put him at ease especially as we have a high medical deductible with my jobs crappy insurance.

Muscle spasm would be your culprit. This us very common in sexually active men. Monitor the level of strain during sex, you could easily pull muscles in the groin.
