I've noticed that after I shaved my pubic hair, little bumps started to appear. How can I make them go away?

Question

By the way, I don't have any STD's or diseases.

Answer 1

its like skin irataion !

baby powder works!

Answer 2

those are ingrown hairs.

they are not an issue, its just when a hair tries to grow, and the skin is blocking its progress. you could get pimple-like things too

Answer 3

dont shave your pubic hair, it will just make it grow faster.

put mosterizer on it, if that doesnt work just wait a few days and they should go away.  

Answer 4

uhm you have razor burn. lawl.

if your a first time shaver this normally happens down there.

Use shaving cream, and don't shave dry..

Answer 5

ok this may sound wierd but aftre shaving apply a cream called eyebrow cream it makes the swelling and reddness go away. its used for when girls pluck there eye brows ...just check the warning label to see if you can use it there.

Answer 6

u got STDs

Answer 7

They won't go away, they are more hair follicles growing in the spots that were cut so short.  They will itch like cray!  It is no STD so don't worry  

Answer 8

Slowly cut off the first layer of skin.

Answer 9

That is normal, it is probably because your razor is dull, so try a new blade, and this may sound g*y.. but it will prevent those bumps..... shaving cream with moiturizers. That will help with dryness, and help reduse the amount of bumps.

Answer 10

hmmmm. Are they little white spots? They could be fordyces spots????

Answer 11

This is going to sound really girly, but invest in the baby oil gel.  Before you shave your pubic area, put it on and rub it in.  Then wait 5 to 10 minutes before you jump in the shower and shave.  As for the ones you have now, put some really moisturizing lotion on to make them not itch.  They are from razor burn, so they won't go away overnight.  The baby oil will mosturize the skin before hand, so you shouldn't have the problem in the future.

Answer 12

Use an unscented lotion... it's razor burn.  Next time use better cream and go slower.

Answer 13

ok that means you might get a lot of ingrown hairs which are gonna hurt

I have heard frommy black friend that he has to use a safety razor of somekind to make that not happen cuz it'll hurt like a bit@$ ! ! !

Answer 14

My boyfriend doesn't use razors to cut his pubic hair(if you do that may be one reason you have those bumps) he uses clippers...like the ones guys use to do their facial hair..he doesn't have that many bumps. also he use alcohol when he done also. hope this helps you

Answer 15

dude that sucks...what happened is the hair ingrew into your skin it can cause a infection...i am guessing your of african american origin? -_O i think they sell a cream that helps for this at drug stores.

Answer 16

Use Nair for Sensitive Skin...I used to get those when I shaved my cookie, and I would put this stuff on it from Crabtree & Evelyn called Gardeners Lavender Oil Topical Gel and they would disappear over night! But they discontinued it, and that S**t worked too.

Answer 17

if i were u man id just use an electric razor or something. buzz cut it

Answer 18

next time don't shave it. Just trim it real short, so you won't get the irritation from the sharp blades. If you want it real short and smooth, again, you better use an electric razor. The little blades inside the machine don't touch your skin, so  you won't get those nasty bumps.
