General & Family Physician 's  Response
yes these are like pimples. ingrowth of hair can occur but mostly gets exaggerated when we shave those areas. either you can keep the hair trimmed or you should rely on waxing{the whole follicle gets removed} these can be due to various other reasons mainly block sebaceous gland, or swollen glands dut to blockage. Vulval hygiene must be maintained and should be cleansed of the smegma that can get collected in between layers causing further irritation. in such cases you may find redness , itching or irritation.
