these started maybe 4 or 5 days ago. I tried to use nair but it wasn't working so i switched to shaving (had unprotected sex a day after). I tend to get ingrown hairs and i am a very paranoid after finding out i had hsv1. Cant really tell if this is genital herpes. I can either be allergic to this nair, a ingrown hairs or genital herpes. I also have one single bump near my anus. I couldn't get a good picture of it. Do anyone know what might this be? imageimage

    These look like folliculitis. It often accompanies shaving and can appear in the region where hair grows. quite common with black skin. it can be as a result of using a bare razor to remove hair. I recommend using a step 1 on the razor to see less of this.

    im quite positive that it's nothing to worry about.
