Common Questions and Answers about Itchy skin under pubic hair

itchy

Avatar m tn s quite uncomfortable, itchy and you could end up getting spots from the hair being shaved under the skin (the hair grows back in on itself, it can be painful and go quite red). You can trim your pubes using scissors. Just be careful, if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend you could ask them to do it.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have recently developed very itchy, sore spots at the top of my vagina, above the clitoris in my pubic hair, they are also down the side walls of my vagina, they feel like big lumps under the skin and they itch like crazy. i get a crawling feeling when the itching starts, it sounds like pubic lice, but im pretty sure its not that. the sores can actually bleed if i scratch them too much, can you help to diagnose what it might be?
Avatar f tn Whenever my pubic hair gets to a certain length it becomes very itchy down there and I'm not sure why it does.
Avatar f tn I'm 14, and about a week ago I shaved my pubic hair, but not fully - just to clean it up. Ever since then I have had an unbearable itch around my labia/pubic area, which is embarrassing when I'm at school or out with my friends. What can I do to soothe or stop this itch?
Avatar m tn Hi, 23 y/o white male. I had protected sex with a new partner a few times, several weeks ago. Several days later, a number of 1/8'' (3mm) ish white, itchy, spots appeared under my pubic hair. They generally seem to be at the base of hairs. They have recurred in decreasing numbers since. When I scratch or wash them with a facecloth, the white, dry skin easily comes off, generally relieving most of the itchyness, and leaving a slightly red-ish area (somewhat raw looking skin).
Avatar m tn It is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs. I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep us posted on how you are doing. Kind regards.
Avatar m tn Ok, I really, really need to some reassurance here, and some advice. About June of last year, I noticed a round bump on the side of my scrotum, near where it attaches to my penis. I ignored it, picked at it, etc. It did not get any worse, or any better, and there was only one. I got annoyed and just cut it off with some scissors, figuring it was a skin tag. A few weeks later, i noticed a very itchy feeling in my pubic hair. I hoped it would go away... it didn't.
Avatar f tn For a long while now I have noticed i had this stain that is kind of brownish on my area where my pubic hair is (I saw it fully when i shaved a bit) and i hadn't thought much of it until recently just this morning i found another of these stains under my right boob. it feels smooth when i touch it but feels differant from the rest of my skin. should i be concerned?
Avatar n tn I have had these 2 dark red colored flat like bumps under the skin in my pubic area, like on the right side on my pubic area but near my leg. they have been there for like 3 months now. then as of 2 months ago, I developed another one of those lumps under the skin, but this time on the left side in the pubic area except its closer to my vagina lip between there and my leg. I put warm compresses on it and it goes down, but never goes away.
Avatar m tn It was really itchy all over down there on the pubic hair by the waist line and on the shaft a few days ago but no bumps or lesions that I noticed. I wake up yesterday and I notice two or three. I have taken a photograph that is high-res and I'm not sure if this is allowed to post or not. But, you can clearly see the bumps that I've described above. The photo is here - http://img697.imageshack.us/f/p5290249.jpg/ The bloody looking sores are the ones that I popped.
Avatar f tn Hey! I'm a beauty therapist and we get this all the time, it's more than likely shaving rash/ingrown hairs. Shaving rash is more of a redness on the skin and ingrown hairs just look like a typical spot. We always say to pop the spot only if it has a white head, and u should find a hair poking out, just pull it with tweezers, it's pretty hard to get a good look at ur own bikini area. Having sex on the same day as shaving could also irritate the area from the friction.
Avatar f tn The skin around the two is red..but not itchy. I also felt a lump that seemed to be under the skin which caused me considerable pain as I squeezed it. A few days later, I got one on the shaft of my penis, about half way up it. This also took 2 days to be able to pop, and I've been putting neosporin on it. What are these? The one on my penis is not where any hair is growing..but als dint have a lump under the skin that hurt.
Avatar f tn Cerave foaming cleanser for face, aczone 7.5%, tazorac .05%. The itch is usually worse at night. I do shave my pubic hair. My pubic hair area gets itchy as well. There is no inflamation on my glans nor scrotum. When the rash goes away, i take care to continue washing and moisturizing the area but they soon appear again. The inflamation on the outrr areas of my jock itch looks like raised red rash. It doesnt fill with pus like the one on my foreskin.
Avatar f tn I was asking what can cause the loss of under arm hair, then followed by loss of leg and arm hair , ( limb hair may be result of lupus attacking arm skin as it has white spots throughout from loss of pigmentation) then followed by loss of most pubic hair? Please refer to the detailed medical history which I included in my post to the left. I hope u can tell me what possibilities I need to consider. Thank you.
Avatar m tn What has me concerned is I have scene tiny white specs very far few and in between in the pubic hairs , however they shake off and come off very easy so im wondering if this is dry skin. They say the eggs of lice attach to the pubic hair and you have to slide them across the hair follicle and they dont just wipe off . I went to the dr after trimming the pubic hair and he said he didnt see anything he thought it was jock itch. I do see white specs from time to time but they come right off.
Avatar f tn but one of my hairs, which probably had a louse or nit came in contact with my pubic hair, and i saw eggs and found dead nits so i shave that area, not bald, but almost there. its very flaky down there, and i noticed white things in the opening of the vagina which wasn't on hair but skin. it could of , been flakes or toilet paper fluff, but im not sure. i feel crawling and biting all over my head near my ears and my body.
Avatar n tn s the pubic area as opposed to my actual genitles). Then over the next few days the rest of the pubic area became itchy and extremely flakey with dry skin. The carpet burn like sore began to heal but then I'd scratch without knowing and flare it up again. The sore is almost gone now, and even though the itchiness/dry skin comes and goes from day to day, the area is still far itchier/has more dry skin, than before this first happened two months ago.
Avatar f tn That was around 4 am on Wednesday morning, then on Thursday afternoon around 5 pm I noticed red dots that resembled a rash but occurring individually on my groin extending to my thighs on each side and at the very base of my penis under my pubic hair. There was also only maybe 3 on the base of shaft. I immediately panicked and have been in a constant state of anxiety since then for the last week. Each day since first noticing I kept checking for changes in the appearance of the red marks.
Avatar f tn when you shave, and most women can testify to this, a day or 2 later, when the hair follicles begin to expel outside the skin again (getting stubble back) it itches...maybe not under the arms but just about all women legs will itch when the hair starts growing back and yes even in their bikini area...also if the razor was new...new blades & especially if it was one of those extremely close shaving razors with 2 or more blades...ouch! I am surprised it didnt cut you...
Avatar m tn When Exactly does your pubic area start to itch when you shave your pubic hair? If I keep shaving my pubic hair before it starts to grow back will that prevent it from itching? Please answer quickly. Thanks!
Avatar f tn The day following I began to feel extremely itchy in my pubic area where hair was. Not knowing that I should have waited longer to get more accurate results, I got tested at my local planned parenthood that week and got negative results for any stds and hsv2. (I did not get tested for hsv 1) My itching still persisted with a rash forming. I went to my local clinic and was diagnosed with a UTI.
Avatar m tn I decided to let the hair grow back, and only recently have I discovered that there is an ingrown hair UNDER my skin. The hair is almost 1 cm in length, and because it is pubic hair it is rather thick. Near the base of the hair it is very close to the skin, but then it curves back underneath and the end of the hair just pokes out at the end but not enough for a tweezer to grab at. It can just barely be seen where it curves back underneath, so I assume it's pretty far under my skin..
Avatar f tn s healing I was being stupid and started scratching my pubic area. The pubic area is red and itchy I have one bigger soar on the top edge of pubic hair and there are very tiny ones as well. I went to the doctor to check the knee and prescribed herpes medicine but she doesn't really know what it is as of now she took swabs of knee.
