I'm an 18 year old female with itchy red bumps filled with pus and hard to the touch on my upper thigh should i be worried?

Pustules: these are commonly called boils, some are superficial and will drain on their own. Warm compresses help this. Others are deeper and require antibiotics. If increasing in size and pain over a 24 hour period, see a doctor for antibiotics or drainage.
