Brief Answer:
its mostly multiple sebaceous cysts

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX

A have read your query and understand your concern.

As per your description, it looks like you have got multiple sebaceous cyst over your scrotum. It's a relatively rare condition, but well documented in literature.

It's treatment depends on the degree of severity and presence or absence of infection. If its infected, and very densely packed then, excision of the entire scrotal skin is preferred, followed by flap reconstruction. If its not infected and loosely placed without any infection, then excision of individual cyst can be tried.

So, I would suggest that you show it to a surgeon, for a clinical evaluation and confirmation of the diagnosis, so that further management can be discussed with him.

Hope I have been helpful.

Regards,
Dr. Deepika Patil.
