Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
The lumps is of a short duration and does not cause much pain , you say.
MOst probably it can be a boil only as the old ones would been noticed long long ago.

wait and watch.
Consult a Doctor to get a direct examination and request for investigations or excision if he feels so .
Do not keep such lumps as pending if suggested by Doctor as this is the area under constant movement and pressure.. Let the lump not grow larger to cause lager problems.
I find this answer helpful
