Brief Answer:
Yes, they are possible related!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this penis swelling. It is most likely related to the cancers you have mentioned as a result of obstruction of normal fluid return from the penis to the bladder. I will suggest that you get it examined and confirmed for possible treatment. Have you had any treatment plan for these cancers already?

I hope this addresses your query. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
