Tell me what epidermal cysts of the scrotum are?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Implanted epidermal: Cells into dermis of skin from trauma or surgery which then multiply. Can also be due to a blocked hair follicle in scrotal skin. They are almost always benign, & hard rather than soft. Treatment is surgical excision by a urologist, general surgeon or a surgical dermatologist. Do not worry. Good luck.
