These look like Molluscum Contagiosum. They are caused by a virus ,possibly from sexual contact with another sufferer or just a carrier. If you are not sexually active they can be caught from flannels and towels. Towels,flannels and underwear needs to be washed at a high temperature. at least 60 deg.
They are not serious but may take up to 18 months to clear. Dont pick or squeeze, you may spread the infection. If they really bother you or you find they are spreading then do try phoning your doctor who may recommend some treatment.
