What Does Pea Sized Pimple On Scrotum Indicate?

Hi. There is a pea sized pimple type thing on my scrotum, but when I try to pop it it does not pop and it is painful only when I touch it. I left it alone for 2 days thinking it would go away but it has stayed and now there is a little black spot inside of it. I'm a bit worried.

Hello
Thanks for query .Based on your statement I would state that you have developed a Sebaceous Cyst over scrotum .

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

Normally it fades away without treatment however needs to be treated if increase in size or get infected.

Take broad spectrum antibiotic like Cefixime along with anti inflammatory drug like Diclofenac twice daily for a week .

If does not subside consult qualified General Surgeon for evaluation .

He may advise you to get it excised in Totto under local anesthesia.
