Razor Burn In Genital, Urination Hurts. On Hydracortizone Cream. Help?
I had gotten razor burn from shaving down there and it irritated my skin completely. It had gotten swollen, red, itchy, even burned when I peed! I went to the doctor and she just said it was inflamed from the irritation. I ve been using A&D ointment and hydracortizome cream but it still burns when I pee. When will the inflammation go away :( it s so unbearable! I dread going to the bathroom so much now. I just want this to be over.
