I don't know, if it's from my razor or what.. I also have bumps… Do you the bumps don't itch and the zits don't get large… Do you think something is wrong with me?
Answer:
If they don't burn/itch then it's probably not from shaving. It could be an allergic reaction to the laundry detergent you use, which would show up in areas of friction of clothing against skin, like your thighs.
Or, it could be keratosis pilaris, a minor skin condition that causes small, pimple-like bumps on mostly thighs and the backs of arms. This is probably what it is. I had this in high school, and never figured out what it was or how to get rid of it. I was buying DermaDoctor's “KP Duty” cream and body scrub and it worked wonders, BUT it was high-priced. Then, I figured out that if you use regular body scrub (from Wal Mart or wherever) and rub it in in the shower, rinse off, and put lotion on the area when you get out, you get the same effect of using the pricey stuff.
Good luck!
Answer:
That happened to me. I was shaving with a Venus razor (the ones that you don't need shaving cream for), and it was causing my legs to do what yours are doing. I stopped and used a good ol' disposible one and barbasol shaving cream..make sure it doesn't have ANY perfumes or lotion in it. Sounds like you’ve sensitive skin just like me!
Answer:
well, the q is: were the zits there b4 u shaved your legs, or do they only appear after shaving them?
it could be that u either have razor-bumps, in which case there are plaenty of creams/gels u can purchase at a drugstore, or it could mean that u have real pimples, in which case u should check with your dermatologist for proper diagnosis and and treatment options
Answer:
You need to moisturize. Get some Nivea from wal-mart or target. It's the best. Also, are you using shaving cream or gel? That’s a must! FYI: more than likely they’re not zits. They are probably bumps from your razor. Good luck with that.
Answer:
Maybe you should postpone shaving until the bumps are gone [for this might aggravate them more] and try a brand new razor and wetting your legs more. Maybe this is the problem? I personally don't use shaving cream, I use bodywash.
Answer:
I have those, too
except on my upper arms and legs.
Mine are from not eating healthy as a young child and they’re called acid bumps.
At least, that's what my father told me.
