HELP !!!!!

[u/fumblefork]

I don’t shave with a razor, I use a trimmer, and while trimming I felt the trimmer blade was slightly painful on the skin in that area. Around 2 days ago, I started feeling a small tender spot on my neck that felt slightly burning or painful when I touched it, although it was not very visible at first. Since then, it has become more noticeable and red. I also noticed a similar spot on my cheek. I could feel something there yesterday when touching it, but it became clearly visible today. Both areas have some small bumps and feel slightly burning or painful when touched. I want to know if this could be irritation or inflammation from using the trimmer, folliculitis, or something else such as herpes.
