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 f tn Do you use shaving cream?
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 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 If you shave with a razor it could be razor burn. :o but ive heard lots of women complain about their vag swelling/burning after sex. Ive had it happen, but i read it could be a lubrication problem, its commen in pregnancy to have this happen.
Avatar f tn Cuz i cant see lol i shave some parts over and over haha. I use one of them big razors with the shavin cream already on them .. not sure of the name but i find it way easier to usr that .. and then if the razor is to big for part i use a normal razor.. !
8274643 tn?1406141596 Omg I need to shave my lady parts so bad but I can't see to do it any more! I can't do it in the mirror because I'll cut my self lol! How are you other mommies shaving your vajayjay? I can't stand feeling like a chubaca!
Avatar f tn Alright, I'm scared to death of asking this, but I had an outbreak of pimple like things down around my vagina and anus. They itch occasionally but only if I have discharge or something, but they don't hurt and they don't have puss or anything that comes out of them. The skin will just break open if I scratch them and then they'll scab and be gone.
Avatar n tn You should never, ever share razors and you should never use the same one on your genital area that is used on other body parts. Also a dull razor will result in razor burn and ingrown hairs which face it just aren't very attractive on the genital area now are they? You need to go and be seen have this all looked at. Do not pop any more. Do not shave again until the skin has completely healed. It could be many, many things and the only way to know is to have it properly evaluated.
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
163305 tn?1333668571 WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has blocked Texas from enforcing key parts of a 2013 law that would close all but eight of the state's abortion facilities. The justices largely granted the request of abortion providers Tuesday. With three dissenting votes, the court suspended a ruling by the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals that allowed Texas to enforce a rule making abortion clinics statewide spend millions of dollars on hospital-level upgrades.
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 You should never, ever use the same razor on your face that you use on other body parts. If you have, toss that razor or change the blade if it's not a disposable! This doesn't really sound like molluscum. It's a holiday weekend so probably at this point just wash the area well in the shower each day with an antibacterial soap and see how that goes. If you still have the rash monday, go and be seen.
Avatar f tn Would you use a crib that is no longer deemed safe for use for a reason that you have checked and made sure the parts are fine? My thinking is regularly checking parts to ensure safety would make it ok? A few cribs out of thousands have a problem and they toss them all out while many are still good. Baby will only be in it at night and during the day will be in a pack in play. I am greatly considering using the crib instead of buying a new one.
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 f tn I am thinking about taping a long stick from mini blinds to a razor to shave my legs. I can shave my girl parts worn a mirror and electric razor. I stand up in front of the mirror with a paper towel on the floor to catch the hair. Works for me,no bending involved.
Avatar m tn 30 minutes before the sex, i had shaved my public hair and during the process i had a razor cut (bleeding happend) just above the place from where penis starts. During the sex, the vaginal lips will touch this razor cut while thrushing in. The condom will not cover these razor cuts and they are outside the penis touching the vaginal lips which are wet. There was no breakage of condom during the vaginal sex.
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 f tn My husband tryed once to shave my other parts i freaked how do you not freak about getting cut ive been trying to do it myself since by feel but that doesn't work to well
Avatar m tn The first (and only) time I ever shaved down there I got little bumps too. It's razor burn, and sometimes a couple will stay and are like little pimples. As far as I know, this is just a mini ingrown hair. If you're freaking out, go see a doctor. Chances are it's nothing, and certainly not cancer. You don't get cancer from shaving.
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 m tn Do you think she could have transferred herpes to her stomach through her razor and this cut? Is HSV-2 easily transferred to other parts of the body? At the time of this incident she was not having an active outbreak, she has shown no signs of lesions on her stomach and she has had HSV-2 for a little more than four years. Do you think we have anything to be concerned about? Thank you so much in advance for your response!
Avatar f tn On the 28th of july I let a girl who is an injection drug user with hepititis C shave my bodily hair with my razor. She had used it on herself a few weeks back, so I disinfected it with isopropyl rubbing alcohol for several minutes before letting her use it on me. At one point she took the razor and pressed it against her finger gently, which did not draw any blood from what I could see.
