Patient's question:
I have a few questions. My partner has bumps on his testicles, about the size of corn kernels, which are very itchy. They get itchy especially when it's hot. He hasn't seen a doctor yet. When he poked them with a needle, there was white, starch-like substance with no smell. It's been about ten years, and it seems to have grown with age. Could you tell me what this might be and how it should be treated?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is often considered that the possibility of folliculitis is relatively high, followed by the nature of sebaceous cysts. It is recommended to promptly go to the general surgery department and dermatology department of the hospital for a detailed screening to identify the cause and confirm the diagnosis, and then proceed with appropriate treatment. Testicular conditions are prone to recurrence, requiring long-term medication. Moreover, for male patients, it is important to seek treatment in professional and reputable hospitals based on the results of thorough examinations. Additionally, pay attention to a proper diet and avoid sexual activity.
