acne in weird areas?

i’ve been having these sores on my outer genital area and armpit, they’re pretty big and they have pus in them. they will get real bad for a few days and then calm down and then start again after a while. it’s been pretty constant for over a year now, in the same places. I don’t know what to do about it. I’ve had bad acne problems just on my face in the past, but nothing like this. thank you for any advice!

Do you shave in those areas?  Try making sure those areas are cleaned twice daily, if that doesn't help- head to your doctor for some assistance in getting it cleared up.
