The red bumps are ingrown hairs so just exfoliate well down there, also shave with the grain not the opposite direction and use a new blade every time.
Good luck.

Try using an electric shaver with baby powder. That will work better than a razor with shaving cream. Your skin will be less sensitive. You shouldn't keep shaving if you are getting red bumps. The area will become more inflamed. There are lotions and creams that will prevent razor burn. You need to try some of those.

Try waxing instead of shaving. Razor Blades could be a little harsh in that area.

Try "Bikini smoothing cream" by Gigi, you can get it at any Sally Salon Supply. It is a topical analgestic that relieves bumps, ingrown hairs and redness. If you cant find it you can always try Tea Tree Oil, and you can get it at any local pharmacy or grocery store.

Yes, stop shaving off your pubic hair.

try a cream or a wax, but change the method, it is upsetting the skin...but keep shaving as its cool !

always use a fresh blade - not one used on the legs
and stroke with the grain of the hair - the way it lays
not opposite and against it
