Seems like every time i shave my vagina i get herpes like lesions. why?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor.: You should show the lesions to your doctor to make the correct diagnosis. They may be bacterial lesions,which could be from bacterial getting under the skin in the shaved, irritated areas, or just irritations from the shaving. You could also consider not shaving the area to allow them to heal and not recur.
