Recurring pink bumps on vagina

I have pink bumps (with white puss) that appear on the outside of my vagina. It is always in the same spot. On the left side and sometimes down towards my anus. I have been sexually active with one person and that person has only been with me. In that same area (where the bumps appear) I felt a lump inside of the skin near that area. There are only one or two at a time (never more than that) and they come and then i won't have another for like a week and then it reappears. I experience itchiness periodically but never really any pain. So what could this be? (and yes I shave frequently)

you really need to be seen and get a proper work up done. this could be any number of things going on and since it keeps coming back and involves pus, not a good idea not to follow up on it.  

do not shave or use a hair removal method until you've gotten this cleared up!

You shave and your skin is irritated from it.. Sounds like you have a little foliiculitis going on the more you shave the worst it may get.... You can try hair removal products that carries some risk of irritation but its much better than a razor shave just start off appling little amounts to prevent breakouts.... Goodluck time will clear up the issues you have now...
