Brief Answer:
These are mostly Sebaceous Cysts

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .The multiple bumps that you have on shaft of the penis are Sebaceous Cyst.

Looking at their existence since two months They are unlikely to be invective in origin.

Penile and scrotal skin is reach in sebaceous gland hence more prone to get sebaceous cyst due to accumulation of sebum beneath the skin.

Normally they fade away without any treatment or with course of antibiotics like Doxicycline twice daily for 5 days.

Ensure to clean genitals with warm water twice daily

Ensure to avoid sexual activities till it gets cured completely.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any more questions please feel free to ask me I shall be happy to help you .
Thanks and Regards.
Dr.Patil.
