Q: a tiny dark bump < 1 mm appeared on my scrotum feel some pain when touched, could this be a hair or anything serious?

Here are some...: Most likely, what you described represents the occurrence of hyperactive sebaceous glands of hair follicles, which may become infected at times just like the acne on the face. Of course, it's hard to give right Dx without a direct look and feel on it. More? Seek evaluation and counseling.

Q: i have a dark spot(nickle size) on my scrotum but no bumps and it itches, any ideas?

Drug: This could be a fixed drug reaction. See your dermatologist for treatment and evaluation.

Q: i have a bump on my scrotum and its kind of a dark red like blood is built up in that spot. i have no clue what it means.

Cherry Tumor: It is either a blood blister from a minor injury, a blocked hair follicle (most likely in the young) related to changing hormones or it is a benign blood vessel growth known as a hemangioma. If it does not calm down you should show your dad to see if a doctor needs to take a look at it.

Q: i had noticed that there are some dark brown bumps or dead skin on my scrotum and i have no idea what s that never had any sex before?

Could be normal: As we get older, we get more "spots" on our skin, including the scrotal area. Because normally skin here is 'wrinkled-up' and we usually don't check down there daily, seeing some darker spots can be worrisome. Stretch/flatten it out to see what it looks like. If u are certainly sure this is new, consult doc to have it checked. The picture here=normal scrotal skin with brown bumps. Good luck.

Q: what color are genital warts usually? i have bumps top of scrotum and pubic area. dark pink to tan looking. about 8 spots 6 have hair coming out of them. was seen by 3 drs was told maybe serohis keratoses, maybe moles? have had them about a year?

: Believe your doctors and follow their advice. Please stop asking unanswerable questions on this forum.

Q: how do genital warts spread on yourself? husband has darker pink/red/brown cali flower bumps on pubic/scrotum. now has one flat tan/pink spot on top of penis base. is he spreading by his own hand? by shower towel? us having sex? i am vaccinated?

: The virus is already in his body so the lesion can appear at different sites in anogenital area, not necessarily self contamination.

Q: small bumps on my scrotum? need to scratch em often

Molluscum?: Small 2-5 mm dome shaped bumps or papules on the genitals could be from a viral induced infection known as molluscum contagiosum. These are more commonly seen in children, but can also occur in individuals that are immunosupressed. There are also other causes for lesions on the scrotum, but without examination it is difficult to tell. I recommend a visit to your doctor or a dermatologist.

Q: why might someone have white bumps on their scrotum?

Here are some...: Known to us, we are not born equal although we share the same anatomical terminology for the supposed same organs. As a result, the sebaceous glands of hair follicles may vary and some men may have hyperactive sebaceous glands or even develop sebaceous cysts in the scrotal wall. Of course, it is hard to tell for sure without a direct look at them.

Q: i have this small bump on my scrotum. what could it be?

Varies: Could be a sebaceous cyst if it is "on" your scrotum . It could be a spermatocele if it is "in" your scrotum. It is best to have a doctor examone you. It does not sound serious but get seen.

Q: have had a lot of noticeably sized bumps on my scrotum for few years now - could they have caused any side affects?

POSSIBLE Fordyce: spots, which are visible seabaceous glands. Please see your doc for diagnosis. There are other possibilities. Please don't worry. Peace and good health.
