What Causes Reddish Itchy Lumps On Bikini Line?

I have these reddish lumps on my bikini line and it is sometimes itchy but they are very swollen. I am wondering what exactly they are and how to treat it for the moment. They do cause some pain and affect daily life and routine. I am planning on visiting my own doctor once I get back from vacation but for the time being I d like to know a way to help everything until then. Thanks!
