Hi,
Thanks for your query.
Brown spots on your testicle which bleed are most likely to be Angiokeratomas.
Angiokeratoma are benign tumors of vascular origin.
More common in your age(>60 yrs).
They are benign, mostly asymptomatic.(can be itchy in some)
Bleed on trauma.
Treatment of angiokeratomas can be RF cautery/cryothearapy.
They wont cause much trouble even if not treated.
However there can be many other conditions with similar presentatation.
Perhaps a visit to your DERMATOLOGIST /physician will help in diagnosis and treatment.
It would be more informative if you send me a picture of the lesion.
I would be able to help you in predicting the condition .
You can upload the photos here or mail me the photos to YYYY@YYYY with subject:ATTN Dr Sudarshan.
Please do confirm the sending of the photos by writing here, so that I can reply you back at the earliest.
Awaiting your response.
