I'm having pimple kind of things on scrotum. They are hard and some are white in color.
They have no pain but get itchi sometimes.
Possible Diagnoses*
1. *Fordyce spots*: Small, white or yellowish bumps on the scrotum, caused by blocked sebaceous glands.
2. *Sebaceous cysts*: Hard, painless bumps filled with a cheesy, yellowish material.
3. *Epidermoid cysts*: Similar to sebaceous cysts, but filled with a soft, white material.
4. *Folliculitis*: Inflammation of the hair follicles, causing itchy, red bumps.
5. *Scrotal dermatitis*: Skin irritation or allergic reactions causing itchy, red bumps.
*Treatment Advice*
1. *Consult a doctor*: Schedule an appointment with a primary care physician, urologist, or dermatologist to determine the underlying cause.
2. *Keep the area clean*: Wash the scrotum with mild soap and warm water to prevent bacterial or fungal infections.
3. *Avoid scratching*: Scratching can lead to further irritation, infection, or scarring.
4. *Topical creams or ointments*: Your doctor may prescribe topical treatments, such as hydrocortisone cream or antibiotic ointments, to reduce inflammation or fight infections.
5. *Warm compresses*: Applying warm compresses to the affected area may help reduce itching and discomfort.
*When to Seek Medical Attention*
1. *Pain or discomfort*: If the bumps become painful or tender.
2. *Increased redness or swelling*: If the affected area becomes increasingly red, swollen, or inflamed.
3. *Pus or discharge*: If you notice pus or discharge from the bumps.
4. *Fever*: If you experience a fever in addition to the scrotal bumps.
