Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to folliculitis which us an infection of the hair follicle. I recommend to use warm compresses at the area. I also suggest to use an antibiotic cream such as Neosporin cream for local application. The symptoms will go gradually on it's own.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
