HI.
Great finding of so many sebaceous cysts , one of which was biopsy proved to be sebaceous cyst.

There is no need to worry as such as they are never going to transform into cancer or so. But they are going to be a potential source of secondary infection..

I would advise you to get them removed , all of them so that again you are going to have a tissue / biopsy diagnosis and the best part is you remain disease free.
I find this answer helpful
