Please provide further details.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

Thanks for your history and a small description.
Please provide more information for me to help you to get a proper diagnosis - so that a proper treatment is possible. This is a secure site, this is a personal discussion and you can open up all the information. I hope you understand what I mean by.

Please tell me the following things ::
Are you married ?
How did the problem start in the beginning - on its own or after some accident or sexual contacts or what ?
Any investigations / treatment / consultation with Skin Specialist or a Surgeon ?
Please tell me city of your residence and job / work you are doing ?
Any exposure to dust / village atmosphere ?

Well:
Your history says : bulges and tumor like shape near your penis and on the rump area. Pus forms - swells and settles also.
This must be going on for months or years.

With this small history I can tell you the probable diagnosis. I can discuss more when you provide further information and post a clear photograph / picture of the area attached to this query.
YYYY@YYYY
You can send the clear picture at this email id and address it to my name: Dr T Chandrakant.

The probable causes I can think of are :
Seborrhoic dematitis with multiple abscesses.
Fistula formation
Affection by odd but specific bacteria causing this problem.

I would advise you the the following::
Clean the area regularly with liquid povidone iodine.
Consult a General Surgeon, have a physical examination to have a clinical diagnosis, so that further steps can be undertaken to have a proper and definite diagnosis.
You may need a biopsy. This is most wonderful tool to have a confirmed diagnosis.
Always remember- Once the diagnosis is perfect , then only it is possible to have a proper treatment. I hope you understand what I mean by this.

Till then continue with some multivitamins and probiotic to get boost in immunity.

I am waiting for your feedback and a photograph and any other reports done till now.

Since you are a Structural Engineer, I would request you to consult a Dermatologist or a General Surgeon.

Proper diagnosis is most important for a correct line of treatment.

Brief Answer:
Take an opinion of a renowned Dermatologist in XXXXXXX

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for the pictures and the history you have provided, I have gone through the pictures.

Hair can be seen through the lesions, some picture shows scar tissue, some shows the typical picture of chronic appearance.

This is some sort of chronic dermatitis with super-added infection. This is recurrent.

I would advise you the following::
Apply Liquid Povidone Iodine available as Betadine Solution (do not buy the Betadine Scrub) to the affected area in the morning once you get up, and after the bath, it dries nicely.
Avoid Hot and humid places (difficult in XXXXXXX and in XXXXXXX area in particular, I know).
Use loose underwear and pants.
Let the area be aerated whenever possible.

I would like you to take an Opinion of a Renowned Dermatologist in XXXXXXX (I hope it is not far way) before starting any antibiotics and do not apply any local ointments till then. This will ensure that he can see the exact condition as Dermatology (Skin) diagnosis depends upon the visual impression.

He may then start a proper course on clinical judgement or can advise biopsy if he feels so.

This can make us sure to have the most proper diagnosis and treatment to have a cure.

I hope this answer helps you to get a proper diagnosis, and get a proper further treatment. Please feel free to ask for more or if you need further clarifications.
Note: For further inquiries on surgery procedure and its risks or complications book an appointment now
