I have several sebaceous cysts on my scrotum and want to know if there are non-surgical treatment options. Would homeopathy work for this, or should I see an allopathic doctor? If so, which specialist is best a urologist or dermatologist?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Sebaceous cysts on the scrotum are usually benign and may not require treatment unless they become painful or infected. Non-surgical options are limited, and homeopathy lacks strong evidence for effectiveness. It’s best to consult a dermatologist first, as they specialize in skin conditions and can guide you on management or refer to a urologist if needed.

I'm feeling really worried about these pearly penile papules and I'm looking for some advice. Are there any home remedies or treatments you can suggest? Also, do I need any specific medicine to get rid of them?
Pearly penile papules (PPP) are harmless, but for aesthetic concerns, consider consulting a dermatologist for professional advice; some home remedies like tea tree oil, castor oil, and aloe vera gel may help reduce inflammation, but there's limited scientific evidence for their effectiveness; medical treatments like carbon dioxide laser therapy, cryotherapy, or radiosurgery may be recommended by a dermatologist, but over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are not typically advised for PPP removal.

I've got these cuts on my left armsix deep, straight scars from 15 years ago that I gave myself. Now I really need to get rid of them quickly but I'm not looking to use laser treatment. I have a medical test coming up next week, and I wouldnt mind if the scars looked like an accident wound but definitely not self-inflicted. Got any advice that could help?
Consult a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for a scar revision or excision procedure, and for immediate camouflage, use medical-grade concealers, silicone gel sheeting, or scar tape to disguise the scars as accidental wounds, and consider explaining your situation to your doctor, as they may be able to provide a medical note or documentation to support your claim.
