Those areas could be little areas of bacterial infection, ingrown hairs or allergic reaction. You can try washing the area with soap once a day and rinse it well. Make sure she does not lick the area frequently as that will make it worse. An Elizabethan collar can help to prevent licking. If the lesions do not look significantly better in one week, have Royal examined by her veterinarian. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
