hard white bumps inside scrotum skin
I've had this problem for a little while now. I get these hard bumps in my scrotum skin. Not on top of skin but under a layer or two of skin. Sometimes they get really sore. some are on the upper layer of skin and I can poke with a sterile needle and stringy white stuff like pimple stuff strings out but then theres the ones that's a hard ball under skin that hurts bad sometimes and you squeeze them inside and nothing will come out it just hurts more and more but you can feel this hard little ball there. Some of them I have dug down through skin to the point you can see this little white ball and eventually I get it dug out but have to cut it away from the skin it seems to be attached to. I'm left with this little pearly white hard ball the size of a little pebble if you let it set once out it dries out if you set it on a hard surface and crunch it with your nail it literally crunches and pops and white material comes out and your left with a skin colored shell. The pain is gone from the area the ball was it. What are these things I'm digging out? Please help

I don't think it is anything serious but you need to see a doctor, probably a dermatologist. What probably is happening is the pores of the skin have become clogged. The white pussy stuff is most likely skin oil that has coagulated and now looks while and pus like. The fact that it is in the folds of the skin is what gives me this belief.
Men sweat a lot in that area and if we do not wash properly this can happen and even if we do wash daily some of us who have folds in the skin down there have to be more aggressive in washing there. Fact is men should be wearing the dresses and women the pants. I guess that is why Scottish men wear Kilts.
This is something if you wish you can tell mom about as it is not an STD or anything sexual. You don't have to for at 16 you are by law old enough to make your own doctors appointments and to visit a doctor without parental permission for anything to do with your reproductive system. Your scrotum is definitely part of that system so you qualify under this Federal Law call HIPPA.
I strongly suggest that you do tell mom or dad for if you are using a body wash to shower with it may not be strong enough to properly clean your scrotum and you may need another type of wash or use regular soap. Your doctor will advise you when you visit. Just remember this is not an STD but it should be attended to by a doctor especially if you wish to have children as an adult.
