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