I'm no expert but I used to get bumps all the time along my bikini line. Not just the red bumps everyone gets but big painful lumps. The dermatologist called it foliculitis (sp?) and gave me a topical antibiotic. At the time I only got bikini waxes in the summer and shaved the rest of the year - and I noticed I never had the problem when I waxed. So I just stopped shaving it and started getting bikini waxes instead. It's expensive but the bumps were very painful so it's worth it.

I would suggest seeing a dermatologist. Your general physician may just send you to one anyway.
