Q: what do you suggest if i used a bad shaver a day ago and now i have a huge rash on my legs! it itches and feels weird. what can i do?

Leg rash: if shaver was dull &amp; jagged, would scratch, bleed, get infected, use topical antibiotic like bacitracin.; if not infected, use mild Cortaid (hydrocortisone).
