    Dear L222085,

    Some questions:

    Have you got any other itchy spots or itchy rashes elsewhere? Check your groin, scrotum, etc

    You say you're a virgin, but have you shared a bed with someone recently?

    Do you have any pets? Do they share the bed with you?

    Two possibilities come to mind to explain an intensely itchy genital nodule:

    If you've not had sex or been intimate with anyone for the past month, it makes scabies less likely. It could still be an insect bite and if you want to apply something to relieve the itching, try Eurax (crotamiton) which can be bought from a pharmacist/chemist/drugstore.

      It has been going away but im very scared because i found a ball near my right testicle but not attached. Im underage and very nervous on what this might be.

      Im very sure its a cyst of some kind but im very young so i dont know what to do.

    It's likely to be an epididymal cyst- look it up on Google. A testicular tumour or cancer would be a stony-hard lump within the testicle, so if you can distinguish your testicle and feel that the lump is separate from it then it's unlikely to be anything sinister.

    As a precaution, you should still see your family doctor/GP and ask them to arrange an ultrasound scan once lockdown restrictions are lifted.

    Also on testicles , 2 blots has come . And itching has started on genital and thigh area.

    Also i observed irritation in whole body while staying in sunlight .

    Plz respond to my problem and suggess me any medication .

    Thanks.

      hey, I have something similar right now, bumps on the penis & also my testicles.

      I've had an itch for over 4-5 weeks now and the only thing that came to mind that was different with my body right now is that I got corona 6-7weeks ago and since then my skin has been acting up. Might be completely wrong. Just a shot in the dark to be honest. I'll be going to my doctor very soon if this doesn't go away after a couple of days so please do let me know if any of you guys had these symptoms after you had COVID or if it's totally unrelated.

      Ever find out what this is? I have the same symptoms and I am pretty worried on what it is.

      I have something like that and was diagnosed of scabies

      the best advice is to go see your doctor or your pharmacist or physician
