Hi, thank you for writing to Healthcare Magic.
With this presentation, I think it is a case of folliculitis. You need to be prescribed antibiotics that may be taken orally and/or applied locally with an antihistamine drug for itches. I would suggest you consult a GP or dermatologist for prescription.
I hope I have answered your query
I wish you good health
