What Causes White Bumps Around The Groin Or Abdomen Region?
Hello, I am a 23 year old white male. Over the past two months, I have noticed tiny white pimple like bumps around my belly button, upper groin/lower abdomen. I tried popping them and they only bleed a lot. They do not itch or cause pain. I am not sexually active.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of white bumps around the groin or abdomen region which seems to be due to contact dermatitis . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like photogenic dermatitis, allergic reaction , psoriasis , skin infection , sun allergy or fungal infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to keep your skin clean and dry and protect it from sun. Apply only petroleum jelly and take antihistamine like benadryl twice a day. If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe immunosuppressants along with anti inflammatory and corticosteroid ointment. Doctor may order certain test like skin patch test , blood test , allergy test and take history to rule out the side effects of certain drug .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
