Hi there, I have had a sebaceous cyst on my scrotum for around 1.5 years now. And it seems now that there is a little tiny one growing beside it. I am arranged to go in for surgery in a few days to get rid of the big one. My questions:

1) Is there any alternative to the surgery for a cyst that has been there this long?
2) I feel these may be a result of my shaving my scrotum. If I still choose to shave it is there something I can do to prevent these cysts?

Thank you very much.
