Bump On Scrotum, Milky Fluid Filled. What Is It?

I have had a large bump(about size of a pea) on my scrotum since December. I tried to pop it almost every day and just 3 weeks ago it popped and it felt under the skin. It finally shot out a milky fluid but now it looks like a tunnel connected to three smaller ones. If I squeeze one hard enough the milky fluid will come out of the other. What do you think

Hi there ~

I understand that your concerns are regarding an infection of the scrotal skin an that it has been made worse by your popping the lesion, which was an abscess or a folliculitis. I also believe that you have enough reason to be started on empiric antibiotic treatment while getting yourself hospitalized after consulting a qualified doctor in the out patient department. You might just need antibiotics or you may need incision and drainage of the lesion and this depends on the physical examination of the area. I hope this helps.

Take care and have a lovely day!
