Clustered bumps on left inner thigh.

Hello, last two days ago my inner thighs were chaffing. And yesterday, it was very itchy..
Today my left inner thigh is itchy, but the itch just came at random. I looked at my thigh to see what's
going on and i've noticed that on my left inner thigh, there's a cluster of raised bumps, skin colored and pinkish, not red, and not painful.. but occasionally itchy. They're many, around an 2-inch on a circle diameter only on my left inner thigh. They do not look like blisters, they do not look like fluid filled blisters, but some of them looks like they have white pus-like fluid inside. What are these? What do you think these are? Please help.
By the way, I don't think they are infectious because yesterday they were itching very bad and my scrotum always comes in contact with the bumpy itchy skin but up until now my scrotum and right inner thigh doesn't itch.
What do you think these are? please help. They do not hurt and they do not have a red base.
I'm scared what these might be? Do you think it's a rash, ringworm, or herpes?

Hello,
Although I cannot confirm a diagnosis without examination but I would suggest you to get eczema,scabies and fungal infections ruled out.Scabies is an infestation of the skin with the Sarcoptes scabiei mite. It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs.

Eczema is a form of chronic dermatitis (rash).Allergic reaction is one of the important causes of eczema.

I hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
