Have Sebaceous Cysts On Testicles. Looking For Home Remedy
Hi, I have a couple medium sized sebaceous cysts on my testicles, and also appear to have what is referred to as chicken skin on the underside of my penis . If possible, I would like to know some home remedies to reduce the bumps. I don t have the money for a doctor (I am 20 years old), and i know they are not harmful, just any information to reduce these would be especially helpful. Thank you!

hello dear,
dont worry, as you said they are not harmful.
only way to remove sebaceous cyst is surgical removal.
even with this chances of reoccurence is high.
dont apply any cream or anything else, it might irritate the skin.
thank you

Hello, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das.
Sebaceous cyst is the accumulation of keratinous material in the skin layer.
It is not going to be handled by the home remedies.
So, you have to go for surgical removal.
That is the only way.
