Could be a problem: You may have a disease call hidradnitis suprativa, that is a chonic infection of skin in the areas of sweat glands. This sometimes can be helped with chronic antibiotics, but sometimes the affected area has to be excised. Check in with a dermatologist to see what they think.

A 27-year-old male asked:
I have a small pimple on my scrotum. I popped it a few days ago & white puss came out, I figured it would have been gone by now, but its a little bigger and squeezed more white puss out. Ingrown hair? Sign of STD? No other sore or symptom?
