Cause And Cure For Blood Filled Lump On Scrotum

Hi, I had a hard bump about the size of a pea on my scrotum that was visibly dark underneath the skin. I squeezed it like a pimple and, after putting on a lot of pressure, it popped and shot a large amount of blood all over the place but nothing more. After cleaning and looking the lump is much smaller but only continued to bleed a little bit. There was no pain when touched and I have put neosporin on the now popped lump. What is this?

Hello,

It seems to be a superficial bacterial skin infection of the scrotum. You can apply topical Neosporin cream over that bump. Make that area clean and avoid tight-fitting cloth.

Wear loose underwear. If no improvement with Neosporin like antibiotic cream than consult surgeon for detailed evaluation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
