Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic,

I have reviewed the attached photograph and it seems to be molluscum contagiosum.

It is a sexually transmitted viral disease.
I would recommend you to consult a Dermatologist and get them removed.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards
Dr Asmeet
