White Bumps on testicles?!
Question: White Bumps on testicles!?
Ok so since 8th grade I have had these small white bumps on my balls!. Some of them are the size of a pin, a pencil lead tip, and pencil eraser!.!.!.they NEVER get bigger than that though!. I currently will be turning 21 in a few months!. Um, sometimes if they rub on my boxers or I scratch down there it might pop one and a puss like substance comes out!.!.!.sometimes the "puss" is totally dried out and sometimes it may be really liquid like!. The ratio of them popping is probably one a month!.!.!.maybe 2!. Never had it doctored, I have acne slightly bad on my face/shoulders/back area!.!.!.so I just figured it was a part of getting hormones when younger and just my oily skin!.!.!.!.um they also dont really have a "head" to them like a pimple/zit/white head they are usually rounded off and pretty skin tight looking!. Anything to worry about!? Had sex first time TOTALLY when 16, married her I was the only man she was with, had these then, have another woman now, still have them, only been with 2 women!.!.!.thanks!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Genital acne" is a term used by some doctors - not all - to describe a condition where bumps appear on the skin on the genital area!. While curious, this condition is not uncommon, and is usually temporary!. However, it could cause alarm since it sometimes comes with discomfort and even pain!.
The condition called "genital acne" is actually called other things in medical terms: acne inversa, or hidradenitis suppurativa!. It is not quite acne in the sense that it does not involve sebaceous glands, as in the face, but instead involves apocrine glands, which are found primarily in the armpit, nipple and genital areas!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

similar to a pimple not transmittable use very warm soapy washcloth (soap and water) applied a couple times a day should help eat healthy less fat more fruits and vegetables wear cotton shorts not man made material -- nylon etc don't allow skin to breath and get rid of toxins and keeps moisture next to skinWww@Answer-Health@Com
