Red Bumps Around Pubic Area. Why Does That Happen? Can I Try To Pop Them?

I have some red bumps with small white heads around my pubic area. Don t seem to really itch or anything. Started out as just 1-3 of them on my pubic area and those seemed to almost dry up . Few weeks later another 3-4 appeared on my scrotum . They burn/tingle a little when I put neosporin on them. If I try popping them, they just bleed . Could this be follicitus or should I be worried about herpes? Got tested for syphillis and ghonnorea and both were negative.

Hi, Bahester,
Thanks for query.
It seems that you might have Folliculitis.
Keep local part neat and clean.
Apply some antibiotic powder on the part.
If bumps size increase then go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Ok and bye.
