What Causes Bumps On The Pubic Area After Shaving Pubic Hair?

I shaved my hair in pubic area but not very low just around where my underwear hugs. Shortly after that I noticed a growth that has spread upwards and now downwards with lumps on each end of it as if it couldn t go any further and just decided to continue to grow in the areas that they stop. WHAT could it be. I ll be going to doctor next week but can t right now. BTW it s only painful when pressure is applied by underwear

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I think it can be folliculitis, infection or inflammation of the hair root and ingrown hair. You can use an antibiotic ointment over it to treat it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
