    To get an explanation of what is going on you would need to see a Dermatologist.

    Simply, when you shave you are going to need to be very cautious in the area where this is - or stop shaving

    Do you use shaving foam and a clean razor that you use on your face .... ?

      What you may have going on could be related to issues connected with Folliculitis - you may have slightly caught the skin around this location, you may not even have realised it at the time - but this has caused an ingress to the follicle itself, or by some means, is preventing the skin from repairing in the normal manner.

      If you have not tried already I would try a normal antiseptic type cream used for treating cuts and grazes on the skin.

      Try applying a small amount twice daily in the general area for a week and see if you get a positive reaction.

      If this has no impact I think you are going to need to get professional medical advice such as from your own doctor or from a dermatologist
