Brief Answer:
steatocystoma multiplex; Excision

Detailed Answer:
Hi there.
I hear you & empathise.
The condition you allude to is called "steatocystoma multiplex" if my clinical hunch is correct & a lay term for it would be a "sebaceous cyst" of the scrotum. You may google the term & then compare the images to your condition & do give me the thumbs up if they tally.
It is a minor non life-threatening issue.
The only way to rid yourself of these would be to get them surgically excised & it is a "minor" procedure that can be done under local anesthesia in the outpatient clinic if so chosen.
You may apply an emollient like aveeno cream that may aid to keep the moisture in & limit the itch.
Good Luck & Godspeed.
