Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to a folliculitis which is an infection of the hair follicle. I recommend using an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream. I also recommend to use an antibacterial soap to clean the area.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
