bumps?

ok im 18 and dont have sex but for the past 3 yrs ive noticed small bumps on the vulva area and on the lips of my vagina...i heard that they might be a form of genital acne, but im not sure, sometimes they're sore...and its scaring me. i also have these larger harder bumps that sort of look like an ingrown hair, i popped on a blood and puss came out! im starting to think the smaller bump maybe a side effect of the birth control i started around the same time they first appeared, i take the depo shot. if anyone has gone through something like this please help me out!

It probably has something to do with your BC, but I would get it checked out.
