Since when do you have this problem?
Any associated itching or pain?
Is there any itching more at night?
Any similar lesions over the scrotum?

Anything you are applying over it?

Brief Answer:
Genital scabies, take treatment as told

Detailed Answer:
Hi again

The good thing is that it does not look like any sexually transmitted disease to me.
I would rather keep the possibility of an allergic disease or genital scabies .
You need to apply a topical steroid cream like cortisone over the affected areas twice a day for three to five days .
In case anytime you feel that the lesions are increasing or you are developing any itchy lesions over other areas as well, then you might need to be examined by a doctor in person to rule out other possibilities .
