Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
As you mentioned that this infection is only from one week.
May be ,
1 Louse born itching or pediculosis due to infected hairs in pubic area .
White bumps with mild itching is a common features . Can be confirmed by a dermatologist as physical examination is very important .
2 May be due ti scabies as in this disease there develops intense itching in pubic area with armpit hairs .
In my opinion these above mentioned disease may be responsible for your problem so consult a dermatologist and take his treatment .
