Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms of your son seem to be related to folliculitis which is an infection of the hair follicle.
I suggest using an antibacterial soap to clean the area.
I also suggest using an antibiotic cream for local application such as Neosporin cream.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
