What Could Be The Discharge Coming Out When Scratched Between Scrotum And Anus?

I am a 50yr male healthy. I itch between scrotum and anus when I scratch using a finger tip not the finger nail there is a clear liquid that will discharge and the itching stops. Any ideas on what it might be. I am embarrassed to see a physician about it..

Hello,
Thanks for the query,

You might have developed sebaceous cyst.

It is a collection of dead material under the skin.

When you press this material comes out as black debris.

Dont worry its not a dangerous condition.

Treatment is mainly surgical.

It can be removed with the wall of the cyst, through a small incision.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
