Biopsy scar on penis is itchy and sore sometimes...

[copperpot]

I had a wart on the shaft of my penis that I had treated (cryotherapy) several times and it kept coming back. Fearing cancer, the nurse recommended a biopsy which I had done about a month or two ago and came back negative. While I'm graeful for that, the scar that remains, while small and not very noticeable, is often itchy and a little sore. It is also irritable when there is any sexual contact of any kind. Is this something that should go away? Should the scar go away eventually also? Is there anything I can do to fix this? Is there a chance the wart could try to come back where the scar is, which could be causing the itchy/soreness? If I was to use cryotherapy on the scar, would the area re-heal itself possibly without a scar? Any help and information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Scars aren't going to heal overnight, especially in an area as sensitive as the genitals. A wart could be trying to come back and though I can't say if this would cause itching, I know that scars can itch when they are being stretched. Go back to the doctor and show them and explain your symptoms. They might have a topical cream they can give you to relieve the itching.
