Atheroma on the external genitalia is a benign formation that appears as a result of blockage of the ducts of the sebaceous glands.
Most often, atheromas occur on the scrotum about 90 – 95% of cases.
What does atheroma of the scrotum look like?
Atheroma of the scrotum is a seal of a rounded or oval shape. Usually small in size. If you look at it more closely, you can see a hole in the capsule of the build-up, through which viscous contents with an unpleasant smell come out. This is the secret of the sebaceous gland, which does not come out due to blockage of the duct.
Causes:
The scrotum contains a large number of sebaceous and sweat glands. The glands perform the function of thermoregulation, because when the temperature changes, the production of spermatozoa is disrupted.
The reason that directly leads to the appearance of a skin formation is an abnormally increased work of the sebaceous glands.
Also, such a blockage can occur: if the rules of intimate hygiene are not observed, if the hormonal background changes, obesity, or if the sebaceous gland is injured.
What are atheromas of the scrotum complications ?
- an increase in atheroma in size;
- skin redness;
- cyanosis of the skin around the formation;
- soreness of atheroma;
- increase in body temperature.
- Self-opening of the abscess can lead to the growth of a fistula.
