What Do Blood Spots On The Scrotum Indicate?

I have what appear to be blood spots on my scrotum. There is no pain and no incidence other than one occasionally breaking and bleeding. The bleeding stops without any scabbing or refilling of the blood spot. What gives? I have had these spots for a very log time and my doctor never says anything about them.

Hello,

What you have is called a scrotal hemangiomas or angiomas which are benign abnormal growth of blood vessels in the scrotum. These are not life threatening. They can be treated by electrocautery but usually recurrence is very high.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
