Welcome to Health care magic.
1.Its an infective cause with collection - most possible cause could be hair follicle infection.
2.Needs an antibiotic course to get treated, if big and reinfecting - a small incision and drainage followed by the antibiotic course with good post procedural care will help.
3.Mean while you do not scratch the area or press the lumps, you will only complicate in that way, leave it alone , maintain local hygiene.
4.Avoid cloths which cause rubbing or irritation to that area - use soft clothing until lit heals.
5.Maintain local hygiene and use antiseptic liquid to clean the area. Good luck.

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
