Iatrogenic swollen penis

Sex Transm Infect. 2005 Feb;81(1):15-6. doi: 10.1136/sti.2004.010058.

Abstract

We report what we think is the first case of localised angioedema of the glans penis as a result of contact allergy to prilocaine in EMLAP cream. We also propose a new term, contact angioedema for this condition.
