What Causes Bumps On Penis And Itching On Thighs And Legs?

Question: i have 2 bumps on my penis shaft with a dark center. almost like a small dark dot or small scrape. i have had scabies about 4 months ago. and i had unprotected sex about a month ago. butthe good friend i slept with told me he was tested and came up clean. my legs and thighs are itching as well as my penile and buttox area. im thinking it might be scabies or malluscum. ive read up about herpes and hpv and it doesnt quite seem like that. what are these bumps?
Brief Answer:
They are Sebaceous cysts.
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I saw the pic.
They look like Sebaceous cysts. The dark spot called PUNCTUM is typical of Sebaceous cyst.
In few patients, it gets ruptured spontaneously and discharges the contents. It may recur again in these patients as the Cyst wall will still be present.
In my opinion, you should consult a Surgeon and get them removed surgically under local anaesthesia.
There are no medicines for Sebaceous cyst.
It is not related to sex or fungal infection or Molluscum.
Itching could be due to scabies. Please take treatment for this as per your Dermatologist .
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
Regards
