Common Questions and Answers about Safety razor angle

safety

Avatar f tn First off, always shave downward, or "with the grain" your hair grows at an angle, and you want to follow that angle. As far as the bumps go, wash them with rubbing alcohol amd put some lotion on them. They should clear up with time.
Avatar m tn something that looks like someone poked him with a needle so it not the typical cut a razor blade would cause but a poke kind of. anyway, had the wife clean his lip really well and with alcohol etc.... common sense says he is fine as it wasnt something major . also i do clean my razor pretty ok after shaving but a worry is a worry and i cant help it. called his pediatritionist clinic today and asked i can come in to make sure his antibodies are good from back when he completed the vaccine..
Avatar f tn For transmission, plenty of infectious fluid is needed to be exchanged inside the body, for which, a safety razor does not qualify. However, for personal hygiene, and to prevent other contageous infections, it is always better to avoid anybody else's kits. You may use a different brand having different color to eliminate the risk of picking up the wrong razor inadvertently.
Avatar m tn One other thing i noticed is that some of the hairs are short and some long so your razor was either dull and you scraped your skin or it was new and you did not go straight but was at an angle and scraped it that way also.
Avatar f tn You are most likely having an allergic reaction to whatever shaving cream or lotion you are applying to your legs, assuming you are using a safety razor. It is also possible that you do have extra-sensitive skin and the skin response is to mechanical irritation from the shaving device you are using. You might want to switch to a “non-allergenic” shaving cream/lotion product. On the mechanical side be sure to avoid using any razor that is not ultra-sharp.
Avatar m tn Hi-I used a (used) safety razor at a golf course and cut myself. 10 Days later I had throbbing voluntary muscles throughout my body and a sinus issues. The sinus issue cleard up in two weeks, but the throbbing eased into a dull ache-particularly in my right biceps that I've had for 6 months, I was tested thoroughly for HVC (multiple antibody, PCR Qual) and HVB. All negative. My hepatologist has referred me to a neurologist saying the razor was just a coincidence.
Avatar f tn the reason it looks that way is bcuz the razor cuts it at a blunt angle.....
Avatar m tn Hi, I've been reading a lot online but cannot find anything closely related to the problem I'm experience.. I'm really hoping someone can help me figure out what's going on. Almost every time after I have (unprotected) sex with my girfriend, I get small red bumps (~20-30) on my penis--mostly along the front and sides and lower foreskin-- as well as sometimes a few near my stomach and pubic hair. This has happened maybe 10 times.
Avatar f tn Turns out it was razor bumps but since i was picking at them n tryin to pop them i got them infected so they gave me some antibiotic but i did get some blood drawn for safety reasons n will know the results on those by next week
Avatar m tn A razor blade, not an electric razor within an hour prior? Yes, that ought to greatly up the risk from oral as a safety blade may have made one or more minute nicks in your skin (not enough to hurt or visibly bleed, but, leaving enough wounding for infected saliva to breach the skin barrier). Eight weeks does sound long enough though (especially if that's the recommended period).

Avatar n tn m just being my usual paranoid self but this is really eating me up alive. I had forgotten my shaving razor when I stayed at a hotel over 3 weekends ago. The hotel staff brought over a disposable one upon my request. Although not packaged (or sealed), the razor appeared to be new and I went ahead used it. I cut very easily when shaving and there was definitely blood from me in this instance.
Avatar n tn m not throwing up, I can still have sex, although some times during orgasm it feels some what uncomfertable behind my balls almost in that area between the scrotum and butt.. like a razor type pain. When I do orgasm my left testicle almost goes so high it dissappears for a few then after I tend to be pain free for a few. Every once in awhile it will look like its laying on a different angle. Any ideas of what's going on?
Avatar n tn Razors are somewhat a needle-like object, and it is inevitable that during shaving blood will get onto the razor. Someone who shaves, using a used razor (of someone who is HIV positive), may get cuts while they are shaving that may possibly allow the virus a way to enter into the body. It's probably unlikely, in the first place, that the virus would even survive on a razor... but there is a bit of risk, so why even have that risk when it can be completely avoided?
Avatar m tn appx 11 weeks ago I had a few drinks and used a used safety razor in the shower at a massage parlor (all women giving massages). I cut my neck shaving. At 8 days my biceps and triceps began aging-my thighs slightly too. My sinuses became inflamed and cleared up in abt three weeks. My muscles have improved but now at 10 weeks still are a bit weak. . I have had a temperature slighly below normal (98.0) for a while now. I had an HIV rapit test @ 6.5 and again at 9 weeks. Both were negative.
Avatar m tn I think that if you are that concerned about the chances that you may catch HCV then you should talk to your friend about your fears. Being honest about our care/responsibility in living around other 's and their safety when we have a disease is important. More than likely you should not be able to get hep C unless it is blood to blood . I gave birth to my children and did not know I had HCV and neither have contracted HCV or the father in the 30 years of having it.
Avatar n tn Like all other items of personal use like tooth brush, safety razor and beard trimmer, I would limit the use of MY sex toys (If I ever intended to use any) to myself only. Although the risk is very negligible as rightly pointed out by alienshadow, but why to that that even?
Avatar f tn I had this problem last summer before I found out I was expecting. I promise I feel your pain. I had em like 4 different times. 2 under one, 2 under the other. I had to stop shaving so often. & make sure your razor is clean. I also use witch hazel under my arms after I shave before I put on deoderant. If you need relief, use a hot towel to bring it to a head. Then burn tha tip of a safety pin or a needle and stick it in that middle. You will need assistance because it hurts like hell.
Avatar f tn My dad is 76. He was told by the specialist that he has narrow angle & cataract. He was told to do laser PI to prevent the glucoma first. Just wonder if the laser PI is needed and is it will worsen the catarct situation since he plans to have the cataract removed at least 6-9 months later.
Avatar m tn My mother is suffering from Angle Glaucoma and she got PI done in her eyes and the doctor seems to have said that she is fine now and should come for regular check ups. The doctor seems to have told my mom that me as her son have a risk of suffering from the same condition. Could someone let me know if I do indeed have that risk and what can I do to make sure I don't suffer the same. Thank you.
Avatar m tn 10 weeks ago I had a few drinks and used a used safety razor in the shower at a massage parlor (all women giving massages). I cut my neck shaving. At 8 days my biceps and triceps began aging-my thighs slightly too. My sinuses became inflamed and cleared up in abt three weeks. My muscles have improved byt now at 10 weeks still are a bit weak. Today my sinues just became inflemed again. I have had a temperature slighly beloe normal (98.0) for a while now. I had an HIV rapit test @ 6.
Avatar f tn Ok my 4 year old is stealing everything in sight dispite lectures time out and loss of toys over this. The 18 month old climbs beautifully but isn't quite walking yet. This culminated in the older boy stealing daddy's razor today during bath time and shaving his face chest and butt defore I catch on because I go in to tell him he hastoo much water.

Remember that babies can get into trouble faster than you can imagine. If there's a dangerous spot in the house, a baby will surely find it. Before your baby begins to crawl, there are some household precautions you should take to safeguard your little one.
Avatar n tn Please don't be scared. I know it is frightening, because I am in the same boat as you are. I have recently been blood tested for herpes. Please go get it checked out, for your own safety. Follow up with a blood test in a few months. I can't officially diagnose you (which I know may not ease your mind) but please, I DO advise for your own safety to go to the clinic. Are you in college or near a planned parenthood? You may be able to get discounted visit fees there.
