    Cancer needs to be eliminated or tested for. It's rare, but I wouldn't take any chances in your position.

      Saw doctor. Very good, was in there for 30 minutes.

      as soon as he looked at it he said "infection."

      he he said it is Balanitis x erotica.

      gave me a steroid ointment. Take for 3 weeks.

      if not gone by then, refer me to Erolicgy at hospital.

      might need to be .circumcised?.

      asked him him about Cancer. He said I don't 

      have enough synptoms for that.

      I'm not passing water with any difficulty.

      I'd hate to lose my foreskin - I hope it doesn't have to come to that in your case. Good health, and good luck.

      Many thanks for your comment.

      i hope so do but if it comes to that....

      I've read there are two ways of doing circumcision

      1 - is take it all off

      2 - they cut slits in the top section of the foreskin..

      I'll keep you all updated as I go along.

      by the way, I am aged 66 for your information.

    Doctor was about 40, so well experienced.

    I suspect Uroligy will do a blood test or two.

    Why does the site give out badges?

      It's just to encourage people to participate, and it shows how active people are.  I don't pay much attention to them.

    Been given as cream prescribed by Dr.

    Going to clinic tomorrow for an assessment. 

    Don't want to wait three weeks to see it would move easier. 

    They said they may refer to Hospital to sort it out.

    Either circumcision or a op to release it, 

Report or request deletion
