For about a week i've had these red bumps. I use an epilator and razor. Just wanted to make sure this is folliculitis and not anything STD related? it doesn't itch, burn or hurt.

it looks like an older pimple or infected hair follicle. i have a few very similar on my bum cheeks and have been told i have folliculitis.
tight underwear, pants, jeans, sweat and shaving can do this too you as well!
recently had a full STI screen and nothing at all was detected and was calmed down by the fact if you thought it was herpes it would most likely ulcer.
hope this helps!

if you are concerned though, your GP should be able to tell you what it is by looking at it!
