It's most definitely a body hair issue and can be the results or hairs ingrowing. I've seen several incised and then gobs of hair removed and the pocket scraped to prevent regrowth.
Impact play could aid in promoting their formation if the most common area ( at or near the coccyx) was exposed to harder play such as slappers or paddles or the like.
Some of these cyst reform over time, others are successfully drained and curated and never reappear. If memory serves, males were the most prevalent examples of those we treated for the cysts.
