Angiokeratoma on the scrotum: How best to treat it ?

[TheHolyGrail]

Hello,

I noticed some Angiokeratoma's on my scrotum. It is a a small blackish colored blister in the small surface capillary. I have like 4 or 5. About the size of a pencil tip one is a little bigger than that.

I believe they are a benign, but kinda embarrassing. I don't want to have to explain to a potential mate.

Not sure what caused them, possibly blood pressure. Maybe shaving down there or riding a bike ?

I was reading that they can be cauterized, is that the best treatment ?

If so, would a dermatologist be the best place to remove these ?

Sure a dermatologist would do it but he, like me, would ask you why?

To look better and in turn not worry. Cosmetic reasons.

They are also caused by pumping your balls with a vacuum device such as Bathmate. I have them from Hypothyroidism on my scrotum due, but then my scrotum got sucked into bathmate and that led to more.
