Let me say that I know for a fact that these are in fact genital acne. I was tested by my doctor several times and have been getting these all of my life. I get ingrown hairs and pimples all of the time. I've asked my doctor what I can do to prevent getting these and he said to wear loose-fitting clothes, which I do. This does not work. I need any advice on how to decrease getting these pimples. Is there a soap that I could use? It is embarrassing when I get a pimple. I want this to stop.
Genital shaving creams with aloe help me, but the best thing I've found is to just pop them quickly as they appear. I get them every time I shave. You could just use a mild facial cleanser, but in that area you should be careful.
KC once gave me advice on using anti-perspirant on my thighs for heat-rashy bumps and it really worked. I'd hazard to guess that it might help here too.
Would the natural deodorants work because I'm nervous to use the antiperspirants that contain aluminum? Thanks!
I don't shave in this area because the pimples get worse. Maybe the natural face cleansers would be safer. I'll try it.
i get pimples and ingrown hairs too. i do shave around the edges (my mom told me its not a real game unless theres grass on the field, lol) and i pluck between shaves, not for any good reason just cuz i think its fun. try to figure out the cause of those particular breakouts. and sleep a la nude. if its a moisture thing you gotta air out, you know?
