Bump Where Its Not Suppose to Be Posted: 01-04-06 21:31pm
My boyfriend shaved his scrotum a little
over a year ago and a small bump formed
which he thought was irritation from
shaving. However a little over a year has
passed and the bump has since grown to the
size of a small marble or bb pellet on the
bottom of his left testicle. It is hard,
painless and not attached at all to the
actually testicle. The top of the bump is
white-ish as if liquid may be in it but it
never popped or has any type of fluid ever
excreted from it.
I have been urging him to have it looked
at but he is too afraid hear bad news
(cancer). Currenlty we do not have health
insurance and I would like to have an idea
of what we may be getting into so I could
select adquate coverage.
Could this possibly be tumor or mass? Or
could be a cyst that developed under the
skin? I have been read up on it but have
gotten no actual advise and appreciate any
enlightment because I am desprite for
something that I could say to him to make
him want to get it check out.... :cry:

Yeah, it's likely an ingrown hair, when
you don't take care of them right away,
that's exactly what happens to them.
