It's very swollen. It's f*cking difficult to put on clothes, very complicated. The other day I went to play and saw that a couple was looking at me. I wanted to go in in a hole. The couple left, I felt like it was commented on, you know?”said.

During a recent performance, the singer faced an embarrassing situation involving a fan who commented on the amount of swelling in his groin, even questioning whether he was having an erection. He shared his concerns: “I kept trying to pull up the shirt. But now I'm wearing a longer shirt. I started to get worried about it. I got to the dressing room and started crying. It's f*cking me.”

Then, Anderson spoke about the current moment and the uniqueness of the disease. He is preparing for a new phase, but he is doing well. His cancer is rare and he has managed to control it so far. However, there is always the possibility that it could spread to another part of the body. This week has been quite challenging for the singer, but he has already spoken with the group members and is determined to face this situation.

Anderson shared that he has been inspired by people close to him who have overcome the disease. Additionally, he has found comfort in music and the gym to help improve his emotional state. He mentioned that there are days when he feels a little tired and even when he goes to the gym, he may not be able to complete the full workout. However, he believes it's better to stay busy, playing music and exercising, than sitting still.

Finally, the singer detailed the treatment he will follow from now on, he will do a puncture and control it with chemotherapy, but no longer with radio.
