HELP PLZ! i think i have folliculitis, whenever i shave i get all these red bumps on my legs.?

it doesnt matter if i use (shaving gel for dry skin) or not. i still get them and it seems like it gets worse if i let any fabric or any lotion touch them after. HELP please people what do i do, how do get my legs back to normal?

even if is isnt folliculitis, how do i stop the little red bumps. i cant put lotion on it or let anything! touch it (fabrics ) after wards bc it gets worse

razor burn...try using shaving foam for sensative skin, and make sure you use a moisturizing lotion afterwards. Allowing your skin to air after shaving would help too(not wearing slacks or jeans right away).

the only way i could stop this was to dry shave then shower.

folliculitus(or however you spell it) is an infection. you can't get it from shaving. you get it from like dirty swimming pools and hot tubs. and it will itch and when you scratch it it kinda burns, its not just the red bumps. i would say if you only get the bumps when you shave, thats not what it is.
