I have descovered a lump on my penis its about half way more to the bottom right? I had been having sex a fair bit a while ago but when apart from partner I resulted to masturbation for release. Since a couple of days ago a lump has apeared and I do fear the worst as I have never discovered anything like this before and worry it could be something bad like cancer, but never heard people getting cancer in the penis? Help please

WHAT!! You get penile cancer by not washing and wearing dirty underwear? :eek::eek::eek: Since WHEN?

Cancer is genetic in origin and dirt will not give you cancer!! Please have this checked by your physician. We are NOT doctors here, and even if we were we cannot properly diagnose without a physical examination.

You really need to get yourself checked by your doctor as they will be best to give advise as to what may be the problem... People get lumps and bumps all over the body and it is always a good idea to get them checked out please don't jump to the idea straight away that you have cancer, you would need to get that checked out by a doctor!!

From time to time guys do get lumps and spots etc on there penis or in there testicles and these can be down to normal things not always just cancer, go get yourself checked out, because the sooner you do the less you will be worrying about it;) Good luck.
