Angiokeratoma of Fordyce

[Dec66]

Google it, but perhaps not while you're at work.

Does anyone else, sorry I mean does anyone have this malady, and are bike saddles combined with highish mileage likely to be a contributory factor?

Ask your doctor/dermatologist.

Thanks, Vernon; I asked here because I didn't really fancy burdening a hard-pressed GP over something essentially cosmetic, but you're right, maybe I should.

Bit embarrassing, though, flashing your saggy old love spuds to a locum.

I'm sure they'll have seen worse...... Besides which, as the lesions can become infected or harbour fungal growth, I would suggest your hard pressed GP would rather give you advice than treat the results of your misplaced coyness.

It's not if they haven't seen saggy old love spuds before...

Fungus? How very dare you, my underparts are a textbook example of personal hygiene

You did frighten me into having a proper look though, and the spots are pretty tiny at present and there aren't a lot of them. They have been far worse, which adds weight to my supposition that saddles may be responsible; I'm on the more forgiving hybrid right now, with its extra padding and more upright stance.

Anyway, we'll see what a GP says.

Not like mine... Are you familiar with the 1970's pastime of "clackers"?
