Patient's question:
There's a small red bump between the testicles and the anus. What could be the reason? It hurts when touched, but it doesn't itch. It's fine as long as it's not touched, but it hurts when touched, even when the underwear touches it. It appeared overnight, and I don't know what's going on?Doctor's answer:
There is a small red bump in the perineum, causing pain upon contact, but it is not itchy. It is suspected to be folliculitis.Recommendation: You can use povidone-iodine disinfectant to apply for sterilization, three to four times a day. It is effective for anti-inflammatory purposes. Pay attention to hygiene, and sterilize underwear by boiling and exposing them to sunlight.
For patients with testicular issues, timely treatment can reduce the likelihood of recurrence. If left untreated, it may affect overall health. Therefore, patients should receive timely medication and maintain a regular sexual life while avoiding prolonged sitting.
