Hello,
Thanks for posting,
Painful intercourse might be as a result of vulvovaginitis or infection of the vulva and vagina which might be due to candida, bacteria or rarely viral etc. The after shave bumps/itches shows that you have developed folliculitis which is infection of the follicles. You will require topical antibiotics or antifungal cream after you must have been examined by a doctor or gynobs. A vaginal smear might be necessary to identify the actual cause of the vulvovaginitis.
Painful penetration might be due to change of partner (if not the same partner) and probably having a different size of sex organ. In any case a gynobs need to review you and provide you with appropriate treatment.
