Hello
Thanks for query .

The dark spot on scrotum and swelling (Gland)in perineal region are mostly Sebaceous Cysts .

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.

Take Doxicycline twice daily for a week .

If persists you will need to consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment.

If needed he may advise you to get it excised in Toto (Completely )
