Lump udner skin......any help?

Ok, so a week ago my gf out a rubber band around my testicles during sex ( dunno why probably for sexual stimulation, lol) anyway, after 1 or 2 days i found a lump just below the testicles where the butt hole starts (not on the testicles or something). Its painful when i sit down or press it . could that be from the pressure of the rubber band? Thanks for the advice !!! Its not red or something, its skin colour and under the skin

It could also be a hemorrhoid. That's the most usual explanation, but have it checked.


Some sexual fantasies should remain fantasies.

see a doc asap. Not an area where you want to take chances
Reply:could be a cyst or some kind of hernia. thats some weird stuff man.
Reply:Well its not from the rubber band because you fay that she put that around you testicles. It sounds to me that it could either be 3 things.


1) A skin infection- this could be from anything ranging from hygene issues to ingrowing hair.


2) a cyst- which is a collection of fluid surrounded by a small layer of skin. (This is what i expect it to be as you said it is painful when you sit)


3) Or skin cancer- very low chance of this because it is a very rare place to develop cancer and most skin cancers grow on the skin not under it!


NEVER THE LESS- SEE A DOCTOR ASAP!!
Reply:I believe that you may have a condition called Hidradenitis Supprativa. It is a condition of re-occurring boils/ cysts/abscesses , that are often misdiagnosed as ingrown hairs, herpes, being unclean and folliculitis. This is a newly diagnosed skin condition , but there is a lot of info out there.


Here is a link :

If this sounds like it might be you, READ it, PRINT it out, and TAKE it to your DOC.


Its better to try to start treatment soon, it can spread over the body if left untreated. These boils can become quite large and painful. Sometimes even lasting for weeks or months , do not attempt to POP them they can then tunnel under your skin and spread all over the body. Most common areas are but definately not limited to armpits, groin, binkni line, inner legs, and intimate places and basically anywhere that sweats and rub against clothing. Stress is a big inducer.





There is some support groups at MSN

and yahoo, and I am open for questions!


I have had this for 8 years, I was misdiagnosed for a LONG time, It was very embarrassing, painful and scary. I am just trying to help out so you don鈥檛 have to wait as long as I did.





I also prefer to use NEXCARE bandages.. there are 2 kinds I like for comfort and stay put reasons..


the first is like a clear bandaid.... soft on the edges with a small area of bandage... helps with those buggers when they are on bikni line.. usually stay for me.. or occasionally on my inner thigh for those I like the foamy sponge like ones that are beige in color.. I think they are some 3M.
