They look quite sore! I'm afraid I've no idea what they are. Are there any ticks in your area? If so, they could be a reaction to bites?

I don't know, I thought perhaps bites, hope they will clear soon:)

I posted about this the other day, Shéara had the same thing....
It seems to be just allergies, has your pooch been in long grass, nettles, crops or near freshly cut grass? I used aqueous cream every morning and night. It looks a little red on the pik, you can use sudocreme to ease the redness and any itching. It will clear up over a few days, nothing to worry about

Could be a number of things, maybe an allergic reaction, are you able to send the pictures to your vet to take a look at and ask advice from them.

To be honest, Jola, I think if Debo got ticks you would see one, sooner or later. They are horrid things that bury their heads into the skin and then their bodies swell up and they don't drop off by their own accord for a long time.
I does look as if he has been bitten by something, do you have mosquitos or horseflies in your area? Do the bumps irritate him?
Or, it may be an allergic reaction to the long grass he loves to run in - maybe even the seed hairs from the long grass are sticking into him and causing local irritation.
Is Debo's hair more thin around his armpits than anywhere else on his body?
If it doesn't clear up soon or gets worse, then yes a visit to the vet is probably the best thing.
Do keep us informed!
