Personal Groin question...?

Question

I know this may be a wierd question to ask but, I recently shaved my groin and Im starting to get red bumbs around the hair sources.. No they are not cuts because I didnt shave my shaft so.... Is thier a way to get rid of the red bumps? Without having to let the hair grow back?

Thank you everyone for theese usfull tips. I do not need any more awnsers but knock yourself out! Ill just push best awnser to voting sinse there are so many awnsers.

For addtional details to peach, my shaft does not have hairs on it! The correct awnser was the person who said... "They jsut will go away in a few days. And Just trim it"

This case is ajurned, yes i used lots of shaving cream so *buzzer* you people who used use more lubrication lsoe. The fact is my body wasnt use to being hairles in that area. beacause I had so much hair there was sweat building up. Which causes rashes, meaning once I shaved it off I saw the rash from it. Sinse rashes spread on itch contact, thats exactly what happened. Case closed not shaving there again just trimming it!

Answer 1

Is this your first time shaving it? This is normal because that part of your body is not used to being hairless. I've read before that it is not recommended to fully shave pubic hair, you should leave just a little. But getting rid of it..Just leave it alone for a few days and it should go away. If you don't want to wait you can use something like Oxy Body Wash.

Answer 2

Well for starters, you didn't do it correctly if you have bumps, aka razor burn. You didn't use enough lubrication...such as shaving cream. Can't just use soap and water down there. Monistat has some good products to help you out now. You can find it in the tampon/condom aisle.

NEXT time, use more lubrication. Never single blade in that area either. Best if you use a thick hair conditioner. Or better yet, do it like chicks do...wax! Might hurt the first time, but you'll get used to it, it lasts longer, and never a bump in sight.

BTW, it takes about 3-7 days for the bumps to go away completely. Now get ready for the itching.

If you won't wax...then remember....lubrication and multiple blade razors (preferably triple blade) will do the trick.

Answer 3

Thats ingrown hair. Always happens. Best solution is not to shave at all. Frankly, only virgins, porn stars and men without long term partners shave their sak. You have to shave it every day unless you want those fine little prickle hairs to chafe your partner's inner thighs.. she will be sick of that gig in no time. You might think you look like a million dollars.. but the practicality is this... you will grow pubic hair.. so keep it trimmed.

George Kluney is the hawtest bloke around and he doesn't shave his chest.. and david beckham is a girly man.

Answer 4

Something to help prevent the red bumps from happening is to make sure to use plenty of shaving cream or lotion while shaving. Don't ever dry shave. Ouch. You have hair on your shaft but left it long. OMG lol

Answer 5

Dude, any groin question is personal.

You have to let the hair grow back. I'm guessing you're young enough that the skin is not finished growing and the follicles are still closer together then they will be when you finish puberty, or finish growing your hair. You are only creating more problems by forcing hair to become ingrown and possibly infected.

Leave your pubic hair alone for a couple years. Trimming it might be fine, but take it easy, tiger, before you just hurt yourself.

Answer 6

Antibiotic ointment (Neosporin) worked for me. I've found that an electric razor works A LOT better (Not the kind with 3 round heads but the kind with one straight one). I don't get the red bumps anymore.

Answer 7

this is normal mainly if you don't shave that much or that often the more you do it and the better the razor the less it will get like that, but try putting baby oil on it as well as lotions to keep it from getting dry and irritated

Answer 8

it is normal
but it is going to happen the first time u shave down there
but u just have to keep shaving and eventually it will stop
it will also hurt when u shave again...
or what i would do is stop using a razor and just trim,it will work better...

good luck

Answer 9

You've got "shaver's rash." Apply an over-the-counter cortisone ointment and it should go away within a couple of days. If not, see a doctor for more potent meds.

Answer 10

They sell a cream for it at like Walgreen's or any chain drug store generally. its called bikini line cream(obviously designed for women but still it works) their called irritation bumps some of which can be ingrown hairs... you can ask the pharmacist at the drug store for a cream to help reduce irritation bumps and ingrown hairs...they will know what your referring to having just shaved but who cares...
