Question: Hi, i have a small painless ball inside my scrotum (not attached the the testie), do you know whar it is??
Brief Answer:
Mostly it is Sebaceous Cyst.
Detailed Answer:
Hello , welcome to HCM..
Thanks for your query ,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have a small lump in scrotum .
I shall be happy if you can post me few more details to help me in making comments on your problem-
1) Is is freely movable ?
2) Can you see a tiny opening at the summit of lump?
3) is there any discharge of a cheesy material from swelling ?
The lump on the scrotal wall is mostly sebaceous cyst .
The scrotal skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin. Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.
Consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment. If needed it may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac)
Hope I have answered your query ,please feel free to ask if you have more questions , I shall be happy to help you .
Thanks and Regards.
