Cancer: 5 symptoms you’d likely experience if you have penile cancer

The fact that cancer doesn’t have a stem origin to look out for is quite scary but it grows deeper when the thought of its diversity comes to mind.
The fact that your throat, colon, brain even private part is susceptible to implicit cankerous outgrowth is enough to keep you up at night.


As inevitable as it seems the dire outcome or rather the unannounced appearance of those victimized by cancer in general just screams out its reputation as a sting; one that must be dreaded.

Cancer: 5 symptoms you’d likely experience if you have penile cancer

What is cancer?

The uncontrollable development of cells that disseminate body tissue is otherwise known as the oversimplified definition of cancer.

Ranging from the throat to brain to colon to lungs the plethora of its nature leaves the out kind of humanity at the edge of survival.

Today there is penile cancer, and just like others research shows that this kind commits to diversity.


Although not prevalent amongst men who have been circumcised as infants, penile cancers are more likely to affect the covering and lining of the human male private part. It embeds its growth on the inner surface of the prepuce, and metastases. Treatments of such would involve the surgical uprooting of part of the penis, chemotherapy, or removal of affected nodes.

Types of penile cancer

There are two types of penile cancer

  1. Prostate cancer
  2. Testicular cancer

Prostate cancer:
Prostate cancer is one of the most dominant types of cancer that affects men. With its progenitor being the male sex hormone, androgen, its incubation, growth, and speed factor occur at a sluggish rate so that before symptoms of its extreme effects begin outplaying the victim might be at the mercy of his 40s—a mushroom period that clouds sexual dysfunctions, and urinary obstruction.

Its treatment; the onset of it, involves rectal examination and/or transrectal ultrasounds.

Testicular cancer:

Predominantly found in boys ranging from 15-35. A winning percentage of this kind of cancer are notably the ones that don’t conform to the production of origin cells.

the root tumor of cancer implants itself on the lymph node in the groin and the mediastinum(in-between the lungs).

Cancer: 5 symptoms you’d likely experience if you have penile cancer

  1. Enlarged lymph nodes in the male private part: the human private part becomes weighed by noticeable painful swelling in the private part.
  2. Thickening of the skin of the private part

The affected area of the male private part becomes rigid and unaligned unlike the rest of the skin that conforms to a simple honey color

  1. Depigmentation of the private part: the human penis loses its original color upon the intrusion of penile cancer
  2. Discharge and bleeding from the private part
  3. Itching and painful sensation in the private part
