What Are the White Things on the Testicles?

White substances on the testicles may refer to white substances on the skin of the scrotum outside the testicles. This situation may be due to white secretions secreted by inflamed hair follicles on the skin of the scrotum, or it may be white fat granules. It is recommended to clean the area with clean water regularly, keep it dry, and avoid squeezing the hair follicles with hands. Generally, these white substances will not increase significantly. If they increase significantly, you can use iodophor to disinfect the area locally under the doctor's advice, and no further treatment is required. If suppuration occurs, it is necessary to go to the hospital for drainage in time, and do not handle it by yourself.

II. Testicular folliculitis

Folliculitis in the scrotal area manifests as red follicular papules with pustules on the surface, accompanied by pain or itching. Folliculitis is caused by bacterial infection, some of which are fungal infections.

III. Precautions

Patients should avoid drinking alcohol, drinking tea, coffee, and eating excessively acidic or spicy foods. Rest, maintain a regular lifestyle, and relieve stress. Wear cotton underwear to keep the area dry and avoid sitting for extended periods. If follicular papules appear, do not squeeze them with your hands to avoid worsening the infection. Oral anti-inflammatory drugs and topical ointments can be used under the doctor's guidance for treatment.
