I Have Had Edema In My Right Leg After The Chemo For Prostate Cancer Which Is Now Spreading
Yes, thanks. Prostate cancer fighter. I am off chemo for last 2 1/2 months. I have had edema in my right leg for about a year. No big problem. Then, it grew larger, and spread into my left leg, foreskin and scrotum . I elevate, when I can. Often, can t free my penis.

Thanks for the query
Looks like it has spread or grown larger. I suggest u meet a urologist soon before the urethra gets obstructed, if it has already got obstructed then a foley catherter might have to be placed. SInce u have already received ur chemo then it might be mostly palliative care
