Hello
Thanks for query .Based on what you have described your husband has Sebaceous Cyst over scrotum on left side which recurs and gets infected repeatedly ,

The scrotal skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.

Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.
Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and get it excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac) so that it will not recur again.
