I have been terribly remiss about writing new material for “The Doctor is In.” I have been very busy these days, having just returned from a medical trip to El Salvador. I plan to write a piece regarding this trip when I get the pictures from the photojournalist that accompanied us. For now, I will just say that we don’t have a lot to grouse about here compared to the average Salvadoran.
This column will address abnormal pap smears. Men, you may think you don’t need to read further, but you would be wrong. Since the vast majority of abnormal pap smears and cervical cancer are caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), which can also cause cancer of the penis, I would suggest all sexually active folks read on.
