What Are The Chances Of Getting Staph Infection By Using Shaving Razors?
I shaved my eyebrows over 2 weeks ago with one of my used razors that I use on my legs. Since then, they have been itchy. Within the last week, they itchiness has become worse and there are painful bumps as well. I may be freaking myself out but am worried it may be a staph infection. What do you think? Also, the bumps are not like pimples, they have no white or black head.
