External bump(s) between inner thighs.

I don't know what topic this should be under but I'm in need of answers!!!
I'm 16 and don't have sexual intercourse or anything, I don't masterbate either, however I have been raped but that was over a year ago- and I don't believe this has anything to do with it, I hope.
1- Is it normal for your pubic hair to itch? I know a little probably is, but like at night it will itch badly.
2- Lately, the area has been itching a lot more and the itch will not go away. And there is a bump that hurts badly and yet itches kind of right on the edge of the inner area. But it's not just one bump. On the opposite side there is a smaller one in the same location with the same effect, just not as grand. I had slept for a few hours in a pair of denim shorts and it seemed to be tender then, but after that it has become rather itchy and the bumps have appeared. Can you tell me what is going on?

Have you looked at the possibility of crabs or pubic lice? It could explain the itching and possibly the bumps.
