bleeding warts (scrotum)
by leog59, Sep 07, 2008 01:58PM
I have warts/dark spots in my scrotum. They bleed sometimes. I am 58 years old. My dermatologist cauterized what I thought was all of them. Since then, I've had two episodes of bleeding. This last one has been the worst. I managed to reduce the bleeding but it took over 45 mins. I tried a syptic pencil; a frozen compress; gauze pads. Finally, I had to put on a female sanitary pad (my wife assisted). What should I do ? The situation is getting worse.

It is usually unlikely that the warts bleed uncontrollably. I would recommend going back to the dermatologist and reconsulting in this regard.
The dermatologist may take a biopsy to ensure that the lesion is a wart for sure, if not previously done. Thereafter the dermatologist may cauterize all bleeding points and remove the remaining warts by himself/herself.
I think managing it at home may not give the best results and in case of a repeat episode, you may go to the ER.
hope this helped.
