What Causes Bumps On The Lower Abdomen After Hair Removal?

I just had a Brazilian wax 2 days ago and am experiencing some bumps on my lower belly and down the insides of my legs. They are just white bumps not really red or swollen and go away after I leave them alone however they itch like crazy, and when I itch them they spread like crazy. Could it be an allergic reaction to the wax? Or just some irration

ello,

Thanks for writing to Health Care magic, I am Dr , Muhammad Ahmad , I have read your question closely, I understand your concern and will be helping you with your health related problem.

This is a common manifestation of chemical allergy, there is usually nothing to panic about , untill the bumbs don't get infected. I would suggest you to keep a good hygiene, wear smooth soft clothes, do not rub, and take OTC antihistamin medication like Citerizine 10mg daily at nigh in night for 5-7 days. If you see any pus you should immediately contact your doctor otherwise do not worry everything should be fine.


I hope this answered your question, If you have more queries I am happy to answer you.
Regards.

Dr.Muhammad Ahmad
