Meet a dermatologist

Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
The photographs are not very clear but with your history and appearance of lesions it looks like molluscum contagiousum.
It is a viral infection usually sexually transmitted.
The treatment is removal with needle.
Please meet a dermatologist and if possible upload a photograph of the involved area.
Thank you.

Brief Answer:
Molluscum contagiousum

Detailed Answer:
Hello
I have seen these photographs earlier.
As I mentioned earlier it looks like molluscum contagiousum but a confirmation of diagnosis is required by physical examination.
I suggest you to meet a dermatologist.
If it is molluscum, it can be removed at once.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
