It’s every man’s worst nightmare.
Penis cancer cases are rising around the world and are expected to surge a staggering 77% in the next 26 years, according to an alarming new investigation by BBC.
The British news outlet says cases in Germany increased by 50% between 1961 and 2012, while the UK has also seen a significant spike.
“Although developing countries still bear the higher incidence and mortality of penile cancer, the incidence is on the rise in most European countries,” researchers from Sun Yat-Sen University in China declared, following a large-scale analysis involving the latest data from 43 countries.
