Have Lumps Around The Groin Area. Have Been Using Neosporin And Antibiotics. What To Do Now?

I have two small, tender lumps under the skin around my groin area. One near the anus that's been there for weeks and one I just noticed inbetween my thigh and testicles. Painless until I press them, not visible, no response to Neosporin... I took antibiotics for an NGU about two weeks ago, but one of the lumps was there before I was prescribed them. Any thoughts?

Another course of oral antibiotics would be better.
