To medical experts: How to prevent sebaceous cysts, and can they turn cancerous?

I have several sebaceous cysts all over my head. It seems like every 1 or 2 weeks I’ll feel my scalp and there’ll be a new one (which is usually tender at first). I used to just have one on the back of my head for the longest time, now they’re all over! I’m not worried about them except for wondering if they’ve ever been known to turn into tumours or become malignant. That’s also the reason I want to stop more from forming. (I’ve long had an issue with dandruff, dry scalp, and sometimes seborrheic dermatitis).
