"Skin irritation after shaving?"

If you are experiencing skin irritation after shaving, it is possible that the shaving process itself caused this common reaction. To help alleviate the irritation, you can try applying a fragrance-free moisturizing cream like Aveeno or Glaxal Base as often as needed. You may also consider using a 1% hydrocortisone cream twice a day (available over the counter at pharmacies). In the future, make sure to use a sharp razor, avoid shaving against the grain, and refrain from going over the same area multiple times. Hope this information is helpful. Feel free to contact me if you have any other questions.
