I'm a woman in Texas. I'm married and have a school-aged child. I have a medical background. I'm quite liberal, socially. I love helping people with medical, parenting, and social questions. Don't ask me about tech stuff or finances, because I need advice on those things myself!

first of all, guys may not want to read this question.

so swimsuit season is coming and i shaved my, umm, area down under. i have before i didnt get much razor burn at all but this time it is HORRIBLE! two days since i have shaved and i just noticed the ENTIRE area is red and bumpy and i have seen it before but this time is bad! it looks like a million spider bites, it hurts and itches! how do i get rid of these bumps? it looks like a freaking disease but i know it isn't i never had sex or anything.

please answer fast this is starting to scare me! (link)
There's some 'no bumps' stuff you can get at a grocery store, near the Skintimate and things like that. I haven't used that, but it might help. Some things I'd try are 1)Warm washcloth compresses 2) Unscented lotion 3) over-the-counter cortisone cream (keep it away from your introitus (opening) and off the inner lips 4) Keep clean otherwise, using Vagisil wipes or just warm water.

A good thing to know is that razor quality DOES count. I use Mach III (even though it's a men's razor). I will never again use a disposable. They do a horrible job and leave me looking butchered.
