Hi and thanks for using the forum.
These could be ingrown hairs. They also could be somthing like swollen glands which can occur when your body is fighting something off. YOu should have them checked out by your doctor to be sure. In the meantime, if you can take ibuprofen, it can reduce the swelling and pain. Good luck.
