Hello
Thanks for your query.
I can understand your concern.
The picture you have sent is of molluscum contagiosum. Its a viral infection of the skin. It is usually sexually transmitted when present in the genital area.
The incubation period could be a few days to a few months, hence its difficult to say whether it has come from you or not.
Regarding the misdiagnosis of your ingrown hair, I would need to see the lesions to make sure of the diagnosis.
Its not related to yeast infection, since your boyfriend was diagnosed with that, it is unrelated to that.
The treatment for it would be getting the lesions needled out by a dermatologist.
It resolves after removal of the lesions, however since its a viral infection, it may recur again since the virus at times may reside in the surrounding skin.
I hope you got some light into the situation now.I do understand that you still might have queries in your mind. PLease feel free to ask them. I will try to clarify them in my further replies.
Take care.
Thank you

So after reading your response he let me take a photo. This is him, not something I found on the internet. I again asked about other symptoms. There's no itching or pain. No discharge. Flesh colored. They haven't gotten better or worse. Same diagnosis?
Yes, Same diagnosis mostly. From the picture, it seems to be molluscum.
In case you can send me one more picture, which is clearer it would be better as this is a little blurred.
Thank you

Sorry it took me so long to respond. Here is another picture. From this angle it looks bigger than it actually is, but it is clearer I believe.
Hello
Thanks for your reply.
This picture also shows that he has molluscum contagiosum which is a viral infection.
The treatment for it would be needling out the lesions by your dermatologist.
Take care.
