I have bumps around my anus and penis?

I'm having pain in my lower back and I have a lump and bumps around my anus and at the base of my penis. Is it cancer because my grandfather on my Dad's side and my Dad's Dad's brother his Uncle both had some type of anal cancer or rectal cancer? I can't thank you enough for offering this service to the poor. May God Bless everyone involved with this website.

Could be a condyloma like a wart. Let your primary doctor know and they can refer you to someone for a biopsy.


Hello,

You are asking a very important question. What is the cause of the skin lesions that you see around your anus and penis. Additionally you have a family history of anal and potentially colon cancer lurking in the background. You have provided photos of these lesions which have apparently been ongoing for about a year. Your most pressing worry is whether or not these can be cancer.

I have looked at all of the photos. Truthfully it is impossible to make a diagnosis by simply
observing your photos. The causes of these lesions can be many. My immediate inclination would be to blame an infectious etiology for these lesions. However, the most important thing to do is to have a physician look at these lesions and perform a biopsy and culture of the lesions. Only with a good physical exam can the cause of these lesions be determined and treatment recommended. My advice would be to have your doctor examine you and perform a biopsy. The other alternative would be to be seen at an emergency room or urgent care center for an evaluation.

Good luck in your endeavors.
