What Could Be The Reason For Having Discolored Circle Shapes On My Scrotum?

Hello, I just noticed some discolored lighter circle shapes some the size of a pea on my scrotum and smaller. I m not actually really itching , my skin is medium dark and the spots are extremely noticeable. I don t feel that the are raised or anything. What might this be ?

Hi

Thanks for your query

Seems like you have developed sebaceous cysts over the scrotum.
Such lesions are very common on the scrotum .
Sometimes these lesions tend to develop calcification and then these appear as whitish in color and can sometimes be associated with whitish discharge also.
In most cases, no treatment is required but if the lesions are really bothering, then surgical removal of the lesions is the only available option.


In that case, I would advise you to visit a dermatologist for proper assessment and treatment.

Hope it helps
Best wishes for a speedy recovery
