Hello fedupofthis,
This is a normal penile vein. DO NOT have it treated by any means. Please leave it alone!

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

It’s important to distinguish between varicose veins and spider veins when choosing between laser therapy, sclerotherapy, and vein surgery. With two board certified vein specialists, our center uses a combination of visual examination, functional flow measurements, ultrasound, transillumination, and infrared light to map out vein networks prior to therapy. Lasers can be used to treat deep varicose vein insufficiency, vein perforators, and varicose veins. Sclerotherapy is ideal for spider veins and reticular veins. Whereas surgery is reserved for severely incompetent varicose vein segments.

No, do not remove this vein. Any treatment on that vein could be harmful for your penis. If you want it to have a long active life, leave it alone ..

The posted picture is a normal penile vein and should be left alone.  Surgical removal or treatment by sclerotherapy is not indicated.
