If you are having issues after surgery, especially with pimples and bumps you should contact your doctor.  There should be no issues with trimming you hair.

It can take over a month for transplanted hairs to fall out initially, so not seeing any shedding at day 12 is nothing to be alarmed about. Using scissors should also be fine, unless your doctor has told you otherwise. As for the bumps, you need to see your doctor. Without a picture or any sort of context it's hard to say what the issue could be.

At 12 days after a beard transplant, sometimes the hairs may remain for weeks or months and possibly even grow early.  Sounds like everything that is happening is normal
