description of your symptoms sounds like hidradenitis suppurativa ,it occurs near hair follicles where there are sweat glands, usually around the groin, bottom, breasts and armpits.
The condition can be mistaken for an infection, an ingrown hair.
Next Steps
Consult with an dermatologist .If it is diagnosed as
hydradenitis suppurativa , treatment involves different types and takes time.
