I shaved last week and i got red bumps around my penis area (where i shave my pubes at) and it was itching like mad crazy last week but now its normal. Anybody know how to get rid of these bumps? Some of them now are a little white so i think they may be pimples.
The same thing happened to me yesterday I shaved down their and now there are these little red bumps and there itching like hell idk what to do either but I heard they go away in abou 2-3 days I also heard baby powder works really well to relieve the itching.
Hi,
The bumps that you are talking about are called razor bumps. The razor bumps usually locate around ingrown hair. There are several things that you can do to treat this condition. The first and most simple one is that you wear loose underwear. Tight underwear can only cause more irritation to the skin and will make bumps even worse. The next thing that you can do is to apply warm water on the bumps. This is done mostly done by lying in the full bathtub. Warm water helps drain the bums with makes them go away much faster. You can also get some over the counter antibiotic cream and apply it topically on the bumps for few days.
