How I Can Get Rid Of The Pimple Like Bumps On The Skin Of My Testicles?

Hi im 20 years old and have 2 little pimple looking bumps on the skin of my testicles (not on the actual testicle). I have popped them and a pus looking substances came out but they come back. No pain or irritation occurs until I squeeze too hard for too long. Any ideas of how I can get rid of these? Or what they even are? Thanks

Hi,

This can occur because the skin is moist and under a lot of friction from the skin of the thighs, which can lead to irritation and predispose to pimple formation. In addition to pimples, ingrown hairs also commonly occur in this location. Both pimples and ingrown hairs should resolve on their own with some good skin hygiene. Given the location and description of the spot, it is unlikely to be a sexually transmitted infection, since sores from these tend to occur more often on the head and shaft of the penis. However, genital warts can occur on the scrotum. Therefore, you should make an appointment with your local doctor. I usually prescribe antibiotic in these cases as there is pus formation inside it. They will be able to look at the spot and quickly determine whether it might be a sexually transmitted infection and, if so, what should be done next for treatment.
