According to WebMD:

Penile cancer, or cancer of the penis, is when cells grow out of control on or in a man’s penis. It often starts in skin cells and can work its way inside...

Research shows that it’s more common in men who:

  • Have the human papillomavirus (HPV)
  • Are over age 60
  • Smoke
  • Have a weakened immune system because of HIV or AIDS
  • Aren’t circumcised. Fluids and a thick buildup called smegma can collect under your foreskin and might make cancer growth more likely.
  • Have a condition called phimosis, which makes your foreskin tight and tough to clean. It can also lead to fluid buildup.
  • Had psoriasis treatment with the drug psoralen and ultraviolet (UV) light."[1]

Other risk factors for penile cancer are promiscuity, AIDS, homosexuality (see: Homosexuality and penile cancer), obesity and engaging in bestiality.*Increased Risk of Penile Cancer among Men Working in Agriculture, Asian Pac J Cancer Prev. 2018; 19(1): 237–241. doi: 10.22034/APJCP.2018.19.1.237
