After you shave down there a lot of people get red irritated bumps a couple days after. It is important to shave with soap or a shave gel and to shave in the direction of the hair growth not the opposite because ingrown hairs or razor burn can easily infect the hair follicle and lead to a bigger problem in the groin area. If you are not sure if it is this or possible an std it is important to check with your doctor.

Does it infect your vagina if you cut pubic hairs?

No, but if you shave your pubic hair you can get ingrown hairs that can get infected. It is nothing too serious though, it is just kind of like having a pimple. They go away on their own. Cutting your pubic hairs though will not harm you or your vaginal area. if u dont shave ur pubic hairs down their and u have ur period all of ur hair down their gets clumped together and it really hurts, plus it smells even worse

How do you get rid of red dots on your skin that appear after you shave your legs?

I sure hope this helps seeing how's this seems to be a normal problem for a lot of people. Like what was said in the last post, they are ingrown hairs caused from shaving in the wrong direction. There are things that you can try to prevent or even help clear up the bumps. One thing is, when you shave (I know most people like a nice clean shave) but instead of getting a smooth shave try shaving in the direction that the hair is growing in. It won't be smooth but it will be close enough so that the hair is not noticeable. Another thing is after you shave, rub baby oil or baby lotion on the area. What this does is soften the hair so that it won't be so coarse and have to literally "push" it's way through your skin. Try to keep lotion or any kind of moisturizer on the area and this should prevent the bumps. Hope this helps. It worked for me and a lot of my friends. they will go away in time. There most likely ingrown hairs. Sometimes they just come and other times its from shaving in the wrong direction. That happend to me in my pubic area. I dont think you can

Not really, it looks like a blister at first for a few days which then breaks to form an ulcer, which is very painful. A ingrown hair is like a raised lump which feels quite hard when you push it, like a spot. The best thing to do is go to your local sexual health clinic and get it checked out.
