Razor bumps or shaving bumps technically known as Pseudofolliculities Barbae is an after effect of shaving with the razor blade especially when it is improperly done. The razor blade could give the smoothest of shaves but at the same time the most susceptible to razor bumps. Although shaving with the razor blade might not be as messy as the shaving powder, it is however very risky if improperly done. What with the development of ingrown hairs and the attendant bumps. This article is therefore all about how to effect treatment for the scourge if it develops.
Once razor bumps develops, before taking any action it is advisable to allow the hair to grow for a while unattended. One should allow it to grow for between 3 and 4 days. This will allow the skin to rest for a while. I have personally tried this method and it has worked for me and it would work for you too.
Do not pick or squeeze the bumps if they develop. Doing so would make them worse. So it is advisable to effect treatment as they develop.
From experience I have found out that infant diaper cream is very effective in getting rid of it fast. Apply the cream gently wherever it develops or where you feel it might develop.
Razor bumps could get infected fairly easily so attend to it immediately it develops. Local antibiotics might also be effective in treating it.
If however this proves ineffective, you should contact a dermatologist for medical treatment.
