Brief Answer:
Calcified cysts,harmless lesions
Detailed Answer:
Hi again
I have seen the attached pictures.
You seem to have developed calcified sebaceous cysts.
Now this is basically a very common and harmless skin condition which tends to occur over the groin region of men.
In most cases ,since they do not cause any discomfort and are harmless ,so they can be left on their own .
Only if these lesions are associated with any discomfort or pain ,then a surgical removal can be done.
Hope it helps
