testicle sac bleeding

What a coincidence. When I used the restroom this morning (after loading and unloading several 5 gal. buckets of paint), I was shocked to see a large bloodstain in the crotch of my briefs. This is the second time this has happened. Way down low at the very bottom, and sides, of my scrotum are herniated capillaries. On ocassion I have even popped them like a pimple, and they shrunk or disappeared. My dermitoligest said that the herniation of these subcutaneous capilaries is no real cause for alarm, but told me to stop "bearing down" (which I have to do on occasion due to constipation). He said they could be carterised and covered with silver nitrate to ward off pain and infection, or treated like spider veins with saline injection to kill the tiny capilaries (this would produce a burning sensation for several hours). Cronic high blood pressure and obesity can also be contributing factors, but not in all cases.

Hello everyone, well I am 24 yr old male and I am also facing a similar problem i.e bleeding on the lower sides (both- Left n Right Side ) of my ball sack, it i also leaving some of the dead skin. The pain/irritation is so intense that I cant even sit, walk or stand. This has happened for the 3rd time in 2 months. last 2 times I applied oil n cold cream to ease the problem but this time it doesnt seem to be working out. It is there from last 3 days, Please help me find a solution. Its ****ing irritating.

This has happened to me three times in the last two years, on each occasion I have been staying in hotels and  bleeding has started immediately after I got out of the shower, so I've resolved to avoid having the shower too hot, not use the industrial complementary body wash they give you in hotels and be careful with their towel!  My tip for stopping the bleeding is to have a stypic pencil in your wash bag ( intended for shaving cuts ) rub it on the source and it reacts with the blood and seals the wound very quickly.

I then put on two pairs of pants, wedge some tissue in just in case  and rinse the hotel towel out from the "other side" in cold water - cold water (and I think I am right in saying milk if you have some handy) gets blood off fabric much better than hot water which "fixes" the blood stain.  

I feel much better for reading these responses, I was thinking all sorts of things from bed bug bites to ...

I had a bleeding incident this AM in the shower from my scrotum, with no apparent cause. I had all sorts of dire thoughts that something was wrong with me. My wife had to help me stop the bleeding--tried styptic pencil, pressure. Your comment was a BIG help--thanks.

Thank you! I have had this bleeding for some time and the only thing I could think of was the big "C" so I resisted seeing my doctor (brilliant I know). I have also been fighting swelling and "leaking" through the skin of my left leg which I was told was due to failure of the valves in the veinous system in the leg, similiar to vericose veins. I never dreamed the two would be linked, so now that I have read this post I will go see my doctor and see if both problems are symptoms of the same failure. Thanks again!

thanx a lot 4 this timely n seemingly priceless info. Im abit shy 2 discuss this w any doc but ur info seems v logical n encouraging. Tc n adb. I will report any improvement in itch n bleeding minimisation. I've had a surgery for plonidal sinus done about 2 yrs bak.

My dog has bite my sac, I had my cloths on when it happened. Will I be ok? Please anwser. ;(

I'm 24 and had the same issue. My incident happened out of nowhere. When I read this thread and think back, I have been eating very unhealthy and drinking a lot. These factors coupled with high stress at work and lifting weights regularly might explain a high blood pressure. The bleading also looked to be coming from a very dry area. I believe that this might be related to an unhealthy lifestyle, espicially considering that the mentioned specialists noted that this is regular for anyone ages 30-39. I'm going to make sure that I regularly moisurize that area and pursue a more healthy diet to see if this might resolve my issue. I hope this can help point others in the right direction. I was extremely worried when I first saw this. Thank you all for the information.

Hi, this happened to me today also. I got the impression it was just a hair follicle being removed when drying after showering. The disconcerting part is that it continued for quite a while.

I have bad blood flow through my right leg, and that cause blood to try to find the easiest way to flow so it goes through your Testicles... which causes alot of pressure on veins that normally don't have that much blood flow... and twice mine have ruptured and bleed... waiting for surgery to clear the blood flow in my leg...

Hi all,

Well now I feel much better having found this webpage.I really thought that I had a serious problem when my ball sack started bleeding after showering this morning.Like all the other posters here my bleeding took ages to stop and I thinkl I was in shock too.

I just sat on the toilet,called my wife and pinched the cut for at least 15 minuites.

Eventually the bleeding stopped,but now I'm worried about it happening again suddenly.

Thank you very much to all for the reassurances.

 

Thanks Doc , I have what looks like little blood blisters on my sac and the bleeding started a few days age , even when I was fully dressed noticed feeling wet on my leg and it was my sac bleeding !

Just happened to me, bled for an hour till my wife got home to go out into my workroom and bring me the super glue. Used it before to close other cuts, but never here. Put a dab of super glue on the spot, it will close it till it closes itself. Read quite a few articles on this, and the ones who went to doctors, most got the super glue treatment under a much more expensive name. The more I read about the stuff, the more I think Super Glue or gel should be in everyones home first aid kit.

I came to this site very concerned and sharing the same issues as many listed here, what seemed to be excessive bleeding that took forever to stop, immediately after my shower and consequent toweling off. The reply from dougmckeel on this article was great. Precise and specific and relieved a ton of concern on my part. Thanks for this site and thank you Doug for your input!

Thanks! I have problems with protrubing varicose veins and many blood spots on my scrotum. From time to time it opens and bleeds profoundly...What shall I do? Surgery?
