Irritation from Shaving?

Posted , 3 users are following.

So I use an electric razor on my intimate area and I had shaved without trimming first so i was pulling a little when I was shaving and my pubic hair was also dry. So a few days after shaving I noticed I had some redness and that whenever my underwear would rub against me it would cause an itch. Could this just be friction causing this and also from my razor?

    Well its possible. Do you regularly clean the shaver head, detaching from the razor, removing all debris and cleaning in hot soapy water? If not you may have set up an infection of some sort. Just keep it well washed and dry. Dont wear pants at night. If it doesnt clear up within a week or gets a lot worse then see your doctor.

      I don't clean my razor as much as i probably should so that could be what caused it
