What Causes Bleeding Bump On Scrotum Despite Having Cephalexin?
I am taking cephalexin for a lump in scrotum (took 3rd of 30 this morning). A pin hole in the scrotum where the lump is began bleeding, but I was able to stop the bleeding with tissue and a band aid. Is this a sign that the cephalexin is working as it tries to kill an infection?
In short: Do not meddle with the lump if it is not giving problem.
Explanation: Sebaceous lumps are very common on scrotal skin so if its that, please do not meddle with it. Meddling might have caused you bleeding. So, if you have any discharge from your lump then you can take antibiotic otherwise not requires. Please visit a dermatologist for its removal. Do not try yourself. Good luck
