Hello and welcome to HCM,
Painful bumps on mons pubis can be due to enlargement and inflammation of Bartholins gland.
Obstruction and blockage of duct of Bartholins gland can cause its obstruction and hence inflammation.
A course of antibiotic along with deroofing of the gland treats the infection and inflammation.
The bumps on inner thigh could be a different entity or could be due to infection of skin or hair follicles.
A clinical assessment of both mons and thighs is required for clinical assessment and hence treatment.

Thanks and take care
