I've had these for a year now. Thought it might have been in-grown hairs so I never treated them. I've been placing body powder on them for a week now.

Brief Answer:
Post a clear picture please

Detailed Answer:
Apparently they are looking like sebaceous cysts and are on the line of fusion.
The only way is surgery, but I personally feel that one should not do anything, if it is not causing any symptoms. No powder can help so you may please stop using it.

You may please take the picture from a distance, and post the clear picture.

You may consult a Dermatologist or a General Surgeon or Urologist to get the perfect diagnosis.
