Hi,
Thanks for the query.

There is possibility of folliculitis.
So you once consult gynecologist or general surgeon to find out the actual nature of the lesion.
Then with their advice you can go for systemic and local antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and analgesics.
Taking sitz bath will help in reducing the symptoms.
Avoid continuous sitting, tight fitting clothes as these can provoke this type of lesions.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
