Cysts In Scrotum Area. Tingling In Most Body Parts. Related To Cyst?
I have cyst (multiple cyst) in the scrotum area (under skin). Cyst developed quite long time ago. I went to dermatologist once few years ago. The dermatologist said they are cyst and the dermatologist cut one of them for some test. Unfortunately, I haven't done follow-up after that.
Now a days some of them become larger. Sometime I squeeze cysts a soft/ hard white lumped come out then go way. I noticed some of them now very hard inside.
Now a days I am having tingling, sometime I feel tingling most of the body parts. Is it related to this cyst.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
These cysts are called as sabaceous cysts and are harmless. Sebum is a normal secretion over the skin and abundant over certain area. It has a protective role for a healthy skin. If the outlet of these glands blocked, it forms a cyst and totally harmless. It can be removed by surgery for cosmetic reasons, not for a real medical indication. Very rarely it can get infected with secondary bacterial organisms and it becomes painful and has an indication for its removal. Otherwise can be ignored. Nothing to worry. The tingling feel of the lesion or other body parts are due to your negative feelings only. So don't worry.
