Hello,
It can be due to clogged pores or Lichen Myxedematosis. Lichen myxedematosus presents as dome-shaped, and flesh-colored or erythematous papule. I suggest you to get an evaluation done from a dermatologist and get a biopsy skin done to confirm the diagnosis.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

Thank You doctor, one more question, is it a really serious disease? Can that possibly relate to any diseases? STDs?
