Hi. does shaving with a razor cause cysts/lumps under the skin? i have a lump near the bladder area but more next to the labia.

Razor bumps: Yes it can. They are called razor bumps, may be inflammatory from ingrown hairs or also be due to infection in the follicle. You have to moisturize before and after shaving and use warm water. Also some individuals especially individuals with darker skin may be more predisposed. f/u/ w/ dermatology https://www.uofmhealth.org/health-library/te7545spec
