Fighting Male Organ Bumps from Razor Burn Razor burn. Razor bumps. Shaving bumps. Razor rash. Psuedofolliculitis barbae. Whatever you call it, it’s the same thing – tiny red bumps that dot the skin, looking something like an outbreak of small pimples. They come about in some guys after they shave, and it’s bad enough when they’re on the face. But if a guy manscapes, he may then come up with male organ bumps, which are even more unsightly and problematic – not least because, being located on or around the manhood, they may cause a partner or potential partner to wonder if they have something to do with a guy’s male organ health. Why? So these male organ bumps might come about when a guy decides to shave that thicket of hair between his legs. But why should that produce razor burn in the form of bumps? And why do only some guys seem to get it? Most of the time, razor bumps occur because of an ingrown hair. This generally means that after a hair follicle has been cut, it reverses itself and instead of growing out, it starts growing back inside the skin. This causes an inflammation, which in turn leads to swelling that eventually becomes the bump. These bumps, because of the inflammation, can be painful to the touch and may produce a stinging sensation. Although anyone can get an ingrown hair, it is a more common occurrence in men whose hair is curly, as the curl increases the chance of the hair reentering the skin. Sometimes razor burn occurs not due to ingrown hairs but because of shaving dry skin or pressing too hard while shaving. Men who use dull blades while shaving may also develop the problem. What to do
