Hi,
Cluster of bumps indicate lichen planus and if itching is there then it might be a reason of candidal balanoposthitis. Lichen planus is treated with topical steroid while candidal infection is treated with topical antifungal like clotrimazole.
Hope it helps. If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.
