I have a firm bump on the side of scrotum not on the testicle and I put pressure on it and puss came out. Could this be related to an STD or just a large pimple. I ve had it a little over a week. It was painful at first like a large pimple but now it doesnt hurt. What could it be?
Cysts are pus-filled spots that form underneath the skin. They can appear on any part of the body and are usually harmless unless they become infected. The management of an intra-scrotal abscess, regardless of the cause, requires surgical drainage.
