Brief Answer:
Looks like sebaceous cysts.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

These look like scrotal sebaceous cysts.They are formed due to blocked skin glands getting infected.

Since they have persisted for 4 years, I would suggest to get them removed by doctor or they will keep recurring.Its a small operation and doctor can perform it under local anesthesia on day care basis.

In my experience these do recur with home treatment and hence should be removed with good antibiotic cover after that.

Keeping the genital clean and dry is very important to prevent this in future.

Please ask if there are doubts.Regards
