Itchiness, Irritation, Painful Bumps Post Shaving Pubic Hair. Remedy?
I m a 13 year old male an I shaved my pelvic pubic hairs. Its becoming itchy and a bit irritated. And now ever since I shaved I ve been noticing a lot of pimple like bumps apearing there. They re like mostly under the skin and they hurt kind of like the under skin pimples that apear like beneath your nose . I don t know hard to explain but is there any way i can prevent them, get rid of the current ones and prevent scaring? Thank you.

Hi...dear danny..,
Thanks for choosing HCM..,
Hairbuds in the pubic area are senstive..,
During shaving, cutting of hairs alongwith hairbuds will.,
damge the skin around the hairs...
So U got this presentation ..pimple like lesions with irritation.,
1) Don't cut the hairs, only trim the hairs at pubic area.,
2) Apply gentamycin and betamethasone combination cream.,
3) Tab Doxycycline 100 mg daily after lunch..,
4) Tab..Levocetrizine daily night times.,
