What Causes Bumps In Between Side Of Shaft And Scrotum?

I have a very small, non-itchy, pimple like bump right in between the side of my shaft, and my scrotum. It was like a white head. It popped very similiarly to a pimple.... sorry to be gross. It is not at all painful, but it does scare the hell out of me. It did leak a very tiny amount of blood. There are no other "pimples" like it, and there are none directly on the shaft of my penis.

Thanks for posting your query to HCM.
As I understand these bump are probably SEBACEOUS CYST , as these are commonly develop in this area .
You dont need to be worried as it donot cause any harm .But you need to be careful as pressing or rupturing it can introduce infection so dont try to break it or press it.
If they are bigger in size or multiple you need to consult to general surgeon for its surgical excision .
hope this information will be sufficient for your query .
