Brief Answer:
Fordyce spots

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for the picture.
The spots that you were showing are not visible unless specifically pointed to with magnification. But yes they are fordyce spots. They may be disturbing but do not cause any harm or require any treatment further. They will disappear on their own.

I think you should just leave about the appearance here and go ahead with rest of your life.
