Can Radiation Treatment Cause A Blister On The Penis?
I have a small white growth on the head of my penis... it is difficult to pull the skin back... also small clear blister notice today for the first time... no pain or discomfort unless I try to pull the skin back to wash. I have had radiation treatment for prostrate cancer and wonder if this could be an end product of that treatment... I also have a rectal fissure which I think has white growths associated with that condition... wondering if could be a connection to the fissure problem...

Hi,
A white growth can be due to STI if you had any unprotected sex. If STI is not the cause, it can be due to simple bacterial infection and the local application of antibiotics will help you. It can also be a complication of radiation treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
