What Causes Appearance Of Seborrheic Keratosis On Scrotum?
My boyfriend has had a skin color growth on his scrotum ever since I can remember, we ve been together for 7 years. I asked him if he ever had it looked at, he said no. We started to have unprotected sex last year and I noticed something wrong. I went to my gyno and she said I have HPV and gave me some cream. I took a picture of his growth to show her and she said that he had a genital wart. My area has since cleared. He went to the dermatologist today to have it removed and they diagnosed him with sebhorrin keratosis. How is this possible? I am confused because his growth had clusters in it and was pink colored. Please help!

Hi,
It can be seborrheic keratosis(it can occur in clusters and can occur in the scrotum as well).
Nothing much to worry as
it is a benign condition and
non-infectious.
Make sure to get his blood sugar tested,
and consult with a general surgeon as the only treatment available is excision of the cysts.
Hope you got your reply.
Take care
