Large pimple-like bumps on my scrotum and inner thighs

I have a few spots on my inner thigh just below my scrotum. This is the place where it usually starts sweating first so i thought it was a heat rash/sweat rash whatever...but then these pimple-like things popped up and they give off an odor like stink bait and smell horrible. It has only happened once before but after i cleaned it with face cleaner for 3 days 2 times a day it went away. Now I'm getting them back. Am i the only one or has anyone else had a problem like this?

Hey guys, I had something that seems like this and it turned out to be folliculitis.

Hidradenitis suppurativa.... I have the SAME problems, but when I went to the DR, they sent me to a derma.. She told me about this thing called Hidradenitis suppurativa.. Its the puss and blood mixtures... its such a pain... She told me to take some antibiotics and go on my way, and that a surgeon could probably help... But I have a small kid, I can't have down time... But look it up.. Remember sometimes they are not as bad as the pictures that are shown..

I have something similar but only on the inner thigh (not on the genitals). They started a few months ago after some weight gain. I have had 3 total. I kind of popped the first one which had the clear liquid and blood and left a large purple around the area that it was which has not gone away, second I left alone for about 2 weeks until the swelling went down then was able to squeez an average pimple like puss out of it without discomfort or blood but still left a little purple spot. Third one I still have and have not messed around with at all for like three weeks but has not gone away. I do not want do risk getting that unsightly purple spot again.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. I get these HUGE pimple looking things on my inner thighs all the time. They hurt really bad, I usually squeeze them til they feel almost like they are tingling, after doing this once a day for about 3 days, it's ready to pop. No it WILL hurt when it pops, u will know when it's ready too, Everything that touches it will make it feel like it's on fire. I was told it's just a boil.

HPV-human papilloma virus... you need some stuff from the doctor called condylox, it's a clear gel

Oh i cant tell who to beleive im only 15 and im scared as hell right now and its quite embarrissing to talk about to anyone

I also have this issue. They get really red and hurt so much.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa. Look it up. The mayo clinic has a very informitive article. (see also boils)

Basically, it's severe acne. (folliculitis). Bacteria in the oil ducts around hair folicles. (staphylococcus)

Warm compress, clean with antibacterial soap, antiseptic ointment. Perhaps a course of antibiotics.

Tham8397 thank you SO much for sharing the term Fordyce Spots. I have been searching for years as to what my skin problem is and I believe it is Fordyce Spots. After looking them up on the Internet and seeing the images people have posted of them, they look exactly like my skin. As a woman who is overweight and also has a sit down all day job, the area of my inner thighs and under my butt is filled with these little white bumps, along with some black heads (which are also caused by sebum blockage). It appears that these spots can get an infection in them and that is when they start looking like pimples with no head. I find that this is the time they can start hurting, and because they hurt I try to "pop" them. As soon as I do that, two things can happen... Either they go away or, most likely, they start to fill up with clear, sticky fluid. As I keep trying to drain the sticky fluid out (and there is a ton of it) they will fill back up until I am finally able to squeeze out the little wax like sebum core that is in there or until it turns in to a full on abrasion and ultimately an UGLY sore on my skin that scabs over and takes a while to heal.
Now knowing that there are products available over the counter that can assist me in getting rid of the sebum while they're still white bumps, so they don't go into infection leading to my poping and the horrible results. I know that I should not squeeze/pop anything but it becomes compulsive, one because it hurts and draining the clear fluid out helps relieve that pain and two, seeing how much clear fluid in there becomes interesting.... I know that's gross, I'm sorry, but I've been open about everything else...
Anyway, again, thank you. I'm sorry this response is so long but I hope that my sharing how Fordyce Spots affect me, how I think the large bumps with clear fluid start and that there are remedies out there over the counter all someone needs to do is Google Fordyce Spots will help a future reader of this link identify their afflictions as well. I was just lucky that after years of searching every time one of these large bumps would appear, I finally used the right combinations of search terms that lead me to the original poster on this thread because the symptoms were similar. And lucky enough that you shared your experience on that same post.

Have a good one! Thanks again!

My daughter was diagnosed with this at the age of five it is very contagious and should be treated with prescribed antibiotics oral, prescribed antibiotics cream, or even lasered off

did you find a remedy? I have a huge one all of a sudden for the first time on my inner thigh close to my scrotum. I've never had this before, especially 1 big 1. Is it safe to pop? I hear lemon overnight helps. Maybe a doctor for a cream?

What you have described much like another person who he miss informed calling this fordyce spots. Google images of them they are very small white bumps, so small you could probably not pop any.. You have likely got an ingrowning hair issue. You check with the doc though and dont let them get infected. That really sucks

My bumps would grow in the area when I would open my legs.I thought they were first boils.When to my dermatologist and was told they were cyst.She would remove them and they were tiny white little balls.Sent off and everything came back negative.

I was told a very young boy had over a 100 in the groin area.OMG I thought.I had only 3-4.I heard if you take some Apple Cider Vinegar put some in a cup with some warm water,you can use a cotton ball to cleanse around your groin area and wherever you feel you need to clean on all your male body parts.I really don't care about the smell.A good cool shower later will work for me.Good Luck Guys!

I've been having small, medium, and large bumps all around my ass line, thigh, and ball sac! Can anyone tell me what that is?
