    It looks like infected hair follicles from shaving. Just keep it clean and they should soon disperse. Dont try squeezing them or you will spread the infection further. No need for Neosporin....just soap and water is fine. Are you wet or dry shaving? Is your razor head clean and washed thoroughly...even if you use an electric shaver you should be able to remove the cutting head and sterilise it in hot water. Dont use the very cheap razors..they can cut without you knowing it. If you are wet shaving make sure you renew the razor often.

      Looks like its healing Ok but constantly close shaving will encourage these types of lesions and ingrown hairs, so be prepared for more.

    Well,it does no harm to be tested for Herpes and if positive get treated. Your nurse would have a better view of your skin than is on here. When you say you used a mans razor had it been used by someone else? Never share razors. You can pass infections like that. If it was just a man type of razor thats fine.
