Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. These small bumps can be due to shaving and are known as hidradenitis suppurativa.
These are benign lesions and usually heal on their own, you can take antibiotics of pain and inflammation develop.
There is no need to apply any steroid cream as it will lead to infection.
Hope you found the answer helpful .
Wishing you good health.
