What Does A Lump In The Pubic Area Indicate?

My husband has a lump in his pubic hair area with a black spot in the center. After sterilizing a needle he tried to pop it thinking it was a pimple or ingrown hair. However instead of pus, another black spot appeared. It's about the size of a dime. Should he try again or is it possibly a hernia?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

It is probably a cyst, most likely sebaceous cyst which contains sebum like material. Visit a general surgeon and get it removed if it is making a problem.

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

Regards,
Dr. Harihar Devkota
