Hello i would like to get this sorted out. I'm just gonna be blunt about it... I've believed for some time that my genitals (i'm a male, 15 almost 16) have been having an issue. The skin around my testicles has 2 white lumps on it an the rest of the skin is covered in smaller skin colour lumps. They do not cause any pain at all even through urinating and masturbation. I haven't worried much about this due to this but after 3/4 years of having them (found them around puberty) i'm starting to worry that this is a more serious problem... I couldnt find anyhting on the internet about it this is my last resort. I really don't want to tell my parents about this so that's why i'm here. Does anyone have any idea what this could be and if so what dhould i do about it? Thank you.

Hi guest,

How big are the bumps?  Do you shave?

You can have sebaceous cysts, swollen oil glands, on the scrotum.  The skin is very thin and they are usually more pronounced.

Hope it helps.

Hi there,

They aren't very big, the white ones are slightly bigger than the others but again they aren't big at all...

And no i don't shave down there... To be honest i'm too scared to XD

Are those cysts a problem? I don't mind if it is at least i know i need to take care of it.

I've now read up on people having a similar problem to me and they are saying it is normal to have them. Is that true?

Yes, it's normal and common. Lots of people have them.

Ok that's a relief. Is it something i should worry about? Like will it go on it's own time or do i need something to get rid of them?

They should go down on there own in time.
