What you described suggests infected hair follicles. Keep the area clean and dry. Apply triple antibiotic cream to the area. If you develop ulcers, more lesions or fever, see a doctor. Get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Safe sex: https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines

You can apply warm compresses (washcloth with very warm to hot water, but not too hot) to the areas several times/day. They may open and drain. Don’t pick at them. If they are not improving or they are getting larger, or you have a fever, please see your doctor.
