A member asked:
Two nights ago i was shaving near my butcrack and i cut myself a little. i'm afraid i have an infection and will die. i can't really see anything ther?

Not to worry: This area suffers minor trauma in many activities and infection is rare - usually requiring some systemic internal breakdown in the immune system. Shaving of the pudendal area is common and breaks in the skin surface happens regularly without any infection resultant.
