Hello,
Without examination,confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be rash due to friction rub,folliculitis,cysts ,molluscum contagiosum(multiple, small, dome-shaped papules, often with a central depression or plug) or genital warts(caused by HPV infection).From the symptoms it sounds like sebaceous cysts. A sebaceous cyst is a closed sac occurring just under the skin which contains a "pasty" or "cheesy" looking substance called keratin.
They are non contagious.
Hope it helps.Warm regards.
