Hello
Thanks for query.
The lump on penis is mostly Sebaceous Cyst .However it needs to be confirmed by clinical examination by a qualified General Surgeon.

The penile skin is rich in sebaceous glands and hence prone to get more sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.

Normally they fade away without treatment however they need to be treated if increase in size orget infected.

Please consult qualified General Surgeon for clinical evaluation and further treatment.
If needed some of them which are bigger may need to get excised in Toto (Completely along with
the sac).
