hi, I noticed that i have cyst like lumps inside my ball sack and they hurt, they are about the size of a pea, i have about 4 or 5 now, one became the size of a nickle and then turned really red and looked like it had puss in it, i doctored it and cleaned the area and poked it with a needle and now its almost gone, but the others are there and dont look like that one, what could it be?
Hello Thanks fr query. Based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have multiple Sebaceous Cysts over scrotum.
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 further treatment.
If needed some of them which are bigger may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac). Dr.Patil.
