1. Scrotal angiokeratoma is essentially a dilated capillary vessel covered with a keratinized layer. This is related to personal factors and is not contagious. Even if it is not treated, it will not cause any harm to the human body, but it is easy to cause damage and local bleeding. Laser, microwave and freezing can all be used for treatment.

2. The current recommendation for treating hemangioma is to use minimally invasive treatment, which is to use catheter nanoneedles under high-frequency color ultrasound positioning to directly act on the tumor, allowing the tumor to slowly ossify, shrink and disappear. It is painless and non-traumatic, and will not recur after being cured. It is recommended to be cautious.

3. Scrotal angiokeratoma generally does not affect health and does not require treatment. However, for some people, scrotal angiokeratoma may gradually increase in size and may be accidentally ruptured, causing continuous bleeding. Therefore, if conditions permit, it is better to undergo laser treatment as soon as possible.
