This is a soft tissue infection caused by a bacteria.
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about these bumps. I have reviewed your information fully and the attached images. This is suggestive of a skin infection. My thinking is that you sustained small cuts during shaving which paved the way for an infection. Most of these would resolve without the need for any aggressive medical intervention. My recommendation is to do the following:
1. Avoid picking on it all the times. This causes spread and delays healing.
2. Cleanse twice daily with an antiseptic like Iodine.
3. Report progress to me in 48-72hours with another image.
4. Healing is expected to happen within 5-7days.
5. If pain is severe, use Tylenol.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.


Thanks and regards
