Wow I cant believe some of the nonsense comments that have thumbs up as if they were actually useful. To those thinking this discussion is about acne please go inform yourself of the difference. A simple search and a few minutes should fill you in. Sabaceous Hyperplasia is a swollen oil gland that will not be "popped" by any amount off squeezing or puncture. Some acne products can help, however from my experience it seems to help prevent not cure existing conditions. When i saw a doctor he told me to wash more carefully as similar to acne, the cause is usually a clogged pore or duct near the gland.
This advice may prevent it, but what do you do about existing conditions? Well this is where i am stuck. I tried to force it out using a sterilized needle and tweezers but after getting part of it out there was too much blood in the wound to see what i was doing and the deeper section still exists. Additionally there is now a bit thicker skin over the area (scar tissue?) that is VERY sensitive, and further attempts to remove it are much more painful and less productive.
Another post i read said try to use a heat source as the oil becomes more of a liquid and perhaps could dissolve. I've taken hot baths but im not really sure if im supposed to buy a heat pad or something because this did not help me at all. Seemed to help others however which is why i mention it. My swollen gland is halfway up my penis so im not really sure how im supposed to heat up such a sensitive area past what ive tried myself.
Final advice, see a doctor or dermatologist, and be persistent about getting rid of it. My doctor made me feel like if enough time passed it would go away, but it absolutely did not. I was careful about cleaning this area of my body before, and much more so after, with the same results. Depending on how bad it is, you can perform self surgery, but be sure to take measures to prevent infection. Acne cream appears to work in some situations, if you can clear the clog the gland should return to normal. Not every occurrence or person is the same.
GUY'S THE CURE FOR SEBACIOUS GLANDS IS TESTOSTERONE. PERIOD. END OF DISCUSSION. THE REASON YOU HAVE THEM IN THE FIRST PLACE IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO MUCH ESTROGEN. I RECOMMEND HIGH-T YOU CAN FIND IT AT ANY VITAMIN WORLD OR GNC. I KNOW BECAUSE I USE TO HAVE IT. NOTICE HOW I SAID USE TO... YOUR WELCOME, CLASS DISMISSED.
