I have what I believe to be Sebaceous Prominences, and have had it sense I started masturbating ages ago with the use of creams/baby oil. I stopped using it immediately when I believed it to cause the Sebaceous Prominences but in 10 years or so its never dissipated or go away and now im told I just have to live with it. I never get new spots, or have the old ones go away and ive tried all sorts of things to get rid of them... Is there anything at home I can do it remedy the situation and get what i think to be small pockets of oils out of my ball-sack, and penis?
Thanks for contacting Chat Doctor with your health care question. I am sorry to hear that you are upset about having sebaceous cysts in your genital area. Your doctor has told you that this cyst will not go away, and he is correct. The cysts are growths that occur naturally, They did not start because you used oil for masturbation. The only way to get rid of the cyst is to have them surgically removed. The cysts are more of a cosmetic problem and will not impact on your sexuality. I can reassure you that you have nothing to worry about. Hope this answers your medical question. Please contact us again with your health care concerns and questions
