What Causes Lumps Blow The Penis?

Dear Sir,

My friend has 2-3 boils/lumps below his penis, i.e, on the balls/scrotum/testicles. what is this? Is this an indication of some serious problem like std diseases or simply bacterial infection? pls advise. Is their any danger for others if they have sex with him?

Hello
Thanks for query,
Lumps on the scrotal sac are mostly Sebaceous Cysts over srotal wall .


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)
