General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi, they are sebaceous cysts and the commonest lesions in that area. They usually dont cause any problems and dont require removal. but the only treatment is removal. We remove these cysts only for cosmetic reasons or in some cases if they get infected due to handling or poking by the patient. So if they are a cosmetic issue for you than you can see a Surgeon and get them removed by a small operation.
Take care,
Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
