Do These Sound Like Tumors?

396545116 I have two lumps on different body parts. One is where the cheek and mouth meet, I guess you can say at the corner of my mouth. I got it about a week ago, and it keeps growing a scab on it. It's painless. The other is on my penis foreskin, it's been there a few months, and is white, hard, and pretty small. At one point, it grew, but then it shrunk back. Help, please?

    James H - Anon,

    Neither of them sound to be tumors. The corner of the mouth is a very rare place to get a tumor, infact in all my text books and years studying medicine I have never heard of one developing at that site. It is probably a cyst,pimple,wart, etc. its not a tumor.

    Your foreskin is what concerns me...however that sounds like a wart more then anything. That one though I would have looked at if it continues to grow or change in color. If it does ...Go to your primary care physican and have them look.

    note:

    Tumor is any cell that fails to die, according to apoptosis (programmable cell death)

    for the foreskin...
    is it sharp to the touch under the skin? Cancer is very gritty for the most part and if you feel under the skin it will feel very rough..
