Answers:
Yes!. You just have razor burn!. It's nothing crazy!. It just means you cut the hairs too short!.!.!.they'll grow back and you'll be fine!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

The irritation after trimming your pubic hair is common!. The contact from the tips of the hair are now coarser affter trimming!. It just takes time for your skin to adjust to the "new" hairs!. It will take a couple of weeks before the irritation subsides!. If your talking about irritation where you actually shaved on the sides, I would just use a loofah to exfoliate the skin then you can put some lotion on it!. Personally, I wax and would recommend it to anyone!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Did you use shaving cream or baby oil when you shaved!? You can soothe it with baby oil, works for me!. If you just started shaving there, your skin isn't used to it!. I have been shaving there for over 6 years and I still get irritation!. And I shave it completely!. You can get it professionally waxed and they will pretreat and treat it afterwards!. Even that takes some getting used to!. Good luck, don't ever dry shave!!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

If it's already itchy I wouldn't swim!. The chlorine will only irritate it more!. Try a soothing itch-relief wipe by Vagisil!. Go to Walgreen's, now!!!! It takes a few minutes to work!

If the itchy discomfort is done before you get to the pool, go ahead and dive in!. If not, just max n relax in your swimsuit, and mingle!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah you should be able to go swimming but the chlorine might burn a little on your alredy sensitive skin!. There always seems to be irritation when you first start shaving so its nothing to worry about!.
unscented undyed lotion should be okay as long as you dont put it up in there or anything!. but really i dont know how much lotion can really help skin irritation like that!. the only thing that really helps is time!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

any lotion should be fine to use!. i would only use the lotion if you've used it previously on other areas with success and it is safe to go swimming!. it could sting a bit depending on how irritated the area is but i've went swimming with horrendous shave irritation on my legs without lotion and haven't been in any pain!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

DONT PUT LOTION ON IT! it makes it hurt really bad!.in washington d!.c!. me and my friends got razor burn and did that it hurt!. yeah u can still go swimming it will hurt a tad!. the itching is normal for the first time after awhile of shaving it will o away in a day or so!. you should think of shaving all the time!. it is less to wory about!. oh and put aloe on it!. it helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah u can go swimming it might help soothe it, it will itch no matter what you put on it,,,thats why they say to wax your bikini line, not that i would for hell!.!.!.but good luck!.!.!.yeah non scented stuff will help!.!.any savlon or soothing cream also goo luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

it could be cus youre close to your period, kinda like waxing!. you get tender down there!. also was it your first time shaving!? dont put lotion just try and wait it off!. yea you can go swimmingWww@Answer-Health@Com

Dont put regular cream on it, use something for sensetive skin or with aloe vera, should be fine
