What Treatment To Be Taken For The Bump On The Scrotum Which Is Painless?

I had a red bump on my scrotum. No pain, no itch. Not sure how long it has been there. A few days ago a poked with a needle and popped it. White Puss came out a with a clear liquid and some blood. Anything to be worried about? I had unprotected sex months ago but again no pain or itch.

Hello
Thanks for your query,based on the facts that you have posted it appears that you have what is called as Sebaceous Cyst over scrotum.

The scrotal skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.
Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size or get infected.
Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment.
If may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with the sac).This is a simple surgery done under local anaesthesia as out patient procedure and offers permanent cure.
