A member asked:

What are hpv penile cancer remission and survival rates?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low, high: Cancer of the penis doesn't remit on its own, but if diagnosed early, the cure rate is very high. Keep an eye on it and report any bumps or red or white lesions early to your physician.
