Re: fear of penile cancer
No. You have to believe the tests yu have had done. Also the docs and nurses would have checked for cancer. As the spots are healing then it definately isn't any form of cancer. I hope this helps and I also know how hard it is to stop worrying.
Re: fear of penile cancer
I agree, if it's healing, then it's not cancer.

Re: fear of penile cancer
I dont think its cancer either.. Are you using condoms while having sex? If you are maybe its nothing but if you are not you should go get tested for STD's.
Hope all goes well.
Re: fear of penile cancer
Well the person I have sexual intercourse was put on birth control and during that she was tested for STDs, etc.. so I know I don't have STDs.. besides shes been my girlfriend for a good while and i know she doesnt sleep around.
It is healing though, it's still kinda red/dry but not as much... My nerves are killing me though, I hate health anxiety... When I think about it.. I think the inside of my penis is burning but when I pee and don't think about it, etc.. I don't even notice it. It could be a urinary tract infection but I really doubt it, considering it only happens when I think about it. What do you think?
Re: fear of penile cancer
You have the answers yourself - it is nothing!
It is in your mind
Re: fear of penile cancer
HI Jpwn,
You seem to be trapped in a cycle of constant doubt.
Googling,etc will continue to exacerbate your fears.
The answer lies within you.
Either go to the Doctor and set out all your fears or accept that you are fine physically and deal with your mental torture.
One day at a time make a pact with yourself not to go looking for symptom checkers on the Internet-it is clearly causing you great distress.
Focus on distracting yourself through activities which have a positive impact on you.Day by day this will raise your spirits and allow you to have a healthier outlook.
Best wishes,
Chalky
Re: fear of penile cancer
Yea, I know.. Health Anxiety = Annoyance.
I'm so glad I googled long enough to find this site, you guys are so helpful.. Thank you
Re: fear of penile cancer
Well, like I said.. It doesn't burn when I pee or anything.. and I certainly don't have any discharge..
It's just when I think about it.. It does.. but when I don't think about it.. it doesn't. lol
